The ONE mistake I see people making when they try to stop binge eating is that they’re also working on losing weight.
Weight loss and stop binge eating are like oil and water: they don’t mix. They are not friends. They never will be friends.
Trying to lose weight and stop binge eating is like being on both sides of a tug-o-war.
When you try to lose weight, you land yourself in diet mentality which is focused on:
The number on the scale.
Restricting the amount of food you eat.
Deprivation.
Exercising more.
What your body looks like.
Scarcity.
Fear.
Dissatisfaction.
All or nothing thinking.
If you have any familiarity with diet mentality, you will be familiar with the roller coaster it puts you on.
When you combine losing weight with stopping your binge eating habit, you set yourself up for the rollercoaster of binge – restrict.
When you commit to focus only on stopping binge eating, you open up a world of possibilities for yourself because you agree to step off the diet mentality wagon.
This means you open yourself up to:
Abundance.
Learning the science.
Building automaticity.
Leaning into the messy, beautiful process.
Exposing and healing your shame.
Learning how to manage urges.
Becoming more of who you are at your core.
A more expansive, big, bountiful life.
