Glenn Livingston Ph.D is a veteran psychologist who become disillusioned by what traditional psychology had to offer overweight and/or food obsessed individuals and spent several decades researching the nature of bingeing and overeating via work with his own patients AND a self-funded research program with more than 40,000 participants. Most important, however, was his own personal journey out of obesity and food prison to a normal, healthy weight and a much more light-hearted relationship with food. He is the author of the book Never Binge Again which goes through How Thousands of People Have Stopped Overeating and Binge Eating - and Stuck to the Diet of Their Choice! (By Reprogramming Themselves to Think Differently About Food.) This was an interesting conversation around binge eating. Glenn has a very different approach to the mindset around food and today's episode will give you some new tools to potentially support overrating and binging. Like every podcast interview I do, take what's relevant to you, experiment with it yourself and see if it helps. Here are some of the things we talked about in today's episode: Glenn's personal history with his weight and what lead him to studying binge eating disorders and disordered eating. The reasons overeating, stress eating, and binge eating so prevalent in our culture today. The difference between binge eating for obese and overweight individuals vs the fitness population and 'binge/restrict' cycles Dissecting your cravings - chocolate binges vs salty binges vs other cravings Successfully identifying the triggers and conditions that precede a binge Practical tips and techniques to hijack your reptilian brain when you get a craving binge. Glenn's 4 categories of rules when it comes to food: Always, Nevers, Conditionals, and Unrestricted. How it's possible to "Never Binge Again?" by applying the psychology of winners to eating.
