Description

In today’s episode, we are focusing on emotional eating and the difference between binge eating and overeating. We wanted to clear up a little confusion around what actually constitutes a binge, the thin line between disordered eating and an eating disorder, and what’s really happening behind your emotional eating. If you want to skip to today’s topic, fast forward to around minute 17. (Although we don’t recommend it.. the beginning of this one is juicy and SO important!) ***if you feel triggered in any way hearing about binges, overeating or similar issues, you may want to skip this episode! This is PART ONE of a two parter- next week, we will dive into practical tools, strategies and advice for how to better manage overeating and emotional eating… but definitely give this episode a listen first! We start by talking a bit about how eating disorders are diagnosed, how disordered eating can lead to an eating disorder, and what the spectrum looks like from disordered eating to eating disorder. From there, we discuss the importance of the right type of support, why disordered eating and why eating disorders have nothing to do with what your body looks like. *Check the show notes for resources to support you if you need it The first half of this episode is dedicated to talking about disordered eating patterns and how to differentiate between overeating and binge eating. From there, the second half we dig into emotional eating- the reasons why, how it shows up for you, and the difference between automatic and intentional eating. In our preamble, we discuss the difference between complaining and venting, sensitivities to changes in weather, and how to get out of the victim mindset. We also touch on how to start understanding why the victim mindset pops up, and some things that may provoke these feelings.
