I love the intention of "I can eat whatever I want, doing my utmost to enjoy it". That really resonates with me because Ive started to notice I sometimes eat past the point of enjoyment (outside a binge). I've been much better with my bingeing since engaging with more grey thinking. I feel the next step in my recovery is learning to manage to not eat past fullness (I have Crohn's and it's quite detrimental physically when I overeat in the evenings). Being more present and feeling the enjoyment may help with this. Thanks so much for your work Sarah. ☺️ Natalia
There is only a very subtle difference between restricting (i cannot do X) and planning (i want to do Y). I think learning to be more present and in tune with our emotions is essential part.
Do you have a patreon? I would love to buy you a coffee? You are immensely helpful to my recovery especially as threrapists never took me seriously! Please keep the videos coming they are SO HELPFUL
Ah, bless you! That’s very kind of you to offer. I don’t have a patreon account. If you want to support the videos, let the ads play, click on the links (no obligation to buy the stuff) all that helps. Supporting my new podcast Life After Diets by subscribing and eating is another way to show support. No intention of stopping the videos! ❤️
Thank you for a very helpful video. Retired and recently diagnosed as an Asperger, I take care of and homeschool my Asperger grandson so my daughter can go to work. I enjoy what I do, though it also comes with a lot stress at times, and I have found myself binge eating. Your book and your videos are helping me more than you can imagine, more than any therapist before has. If I lived in the UK, I would drive a long way to have you as my therapist. From others comments, I know you are helping so many with what you do - for free. What a great gift to those of us who need this. THANK YOU again!
When all I can think about is carbs, I know it’s not true hunger. If I can wait knowing I can eat whatever I fancy, eventually my appetite will be for a range of foods.
Thank you so much for this channel.... I have a wee question. You had mentioned that eating is also a way of procrastination.. I am an RE teacher in a secondary school. When I come home, I am beyond exhausted and often in discomfort. (I also have fibromyalgia for extra fun) If I sit down when I enter the house first, then I eat and eat and eat, (ahem.... to give me energy of course).. However, after my mini or sometimes maxi binge, I have less energy to go and get changed and get ready to make supper for me and my hubby... I sometimes 'intend' to go upstairs firstly and get changed, and take the make up off, but sometimes, I am so tired, the very thought of doing that is not appealing, but the thought of eating first is very appealing.... Any ideas? Thank you again for this wonderful resource you have given to us - free of charge... - amazing. xo
Thanks for the lovely words of support! ❤️ Is napping an option? Sound like that would the most beneficial for you energy wise. Could you try coming straight in and flopping down with a cosy blanket and 30min alarm?
There are some excellent thoughts and intentions here. Thank you for this. I put them in the notes section on my phone. That's something I have with me at all times. Great reference. I have a question. Do you have any episodes on how to deal with emotions? Mine all seem to be so extreme, and if I don't deal with them, it's a binge set up. I appreciate any info or ideas that you can share.

After I have binged I tell myself it’s okay and I love you.
