Spot on!

I like your words: "You and your body are on the same team. The war needs to end if you need to heal".

What was the core vid? Sounds amazing!!

❤

Just this minute now subscribed to Marcus's KZbin channel and hope lots will too, you're doing such good-positive stuff Marcus!! 🌞 Thanks so very much Sarah!! 🌞

Oh Sarah, what an amazing episode/video here! Thank you both, Sarah and Marcus, so much wisdom and good practical suggestions listening to you both 🌞 again thanks so very and hopefully others will also find this video of immense help too! 🌞

I would like this video many, many times if I could. The discussion about bodybuilding is one I agree with, and in my experience getting everything else right can lead to more exclusion, isolation and sacrifices.

4:20 same with me, it’s always like this, never heard this same problem from other people.

The idea that I have to “not want to lose weight” or look a certain way…just adds to the stress! But I like the idea of letting them just be there while focusing on other things as well.

Really appreciate this video, i ended up putting a holt on bodybuilding and decided to focus on bettering overall mental health and fixing up my lifestyle a bit. Unintentionally kind of followed the advice in this podcast! Your videos are very helpful thank you for putting out all this information :)

I don't restrict myself in my diet at all. I eat sweet chocolaty things everyday but still I am in this binge trap once in a week or once in two weeks. Why I don't understand is it like habit anymore ?

Yesterday in the evening, I really wanted to go out and buy something sweet to overeat with. Sweet craving… I could have gone through an entire pack of cookies, or a bag of candy. I had my wallet in my hand, ready to go. Then I thought… my caloric intake is stood so far today, that would mess it up. How about I put away laundry, and see what I want after. Once I was upstairs in my bedroom, I did not even think of it again. I got ready for bed and went to bed, reading a book. It distracted me from that thought, and the thought was gone. I was not hungry at all.

Is it wrong to have the intention of exercising to enable my body to fit into my clothes that im too big for because of disordered eating?

Book reading starts at 2:23.

Sarah, you can't imagine how much I appreciated this episode ! My question to Marcus would be : what if you revolved all your life (except for the work part) around exercise/ fitness, and sacrified everything else to have time to train/ eat / rest , and now that your body is broken, you don't have a supporting network to rely on ? And my question to you, Sarah, if I may ask (but you don't have to answer !!) : there are soooooo many yoga classes online, a lot focusing on the core, so why do you play with fire and keep doing, even just once a month, this particular one that triggers you a bottomless hunger ? Thanks again for this discussion, will follow Marcus RN !

Ways I ignore: Sleepy at night but staying up (to finish a Twilight movie) Or eating when I’m not hungry or especially when I already feel full or bloated.

Wow this is fantastit compared to other videos I've watched on this topic!

Thank you for this video. Here´s my story: I was BED in my 16-25 (or whenever I try to stick into another "great" diet" or try to loose weight). The only thing that helped me was not dieting and eating everything I want. I also like running. A week ago I had "great idea": if I run before breakfast (fasted), I´ll have more time in my day because of my schedule. So I run fasted and started doing a "light version" of IF (12/12) Guess what?! After a week of this my BED return after almost 15 years of no binge. And I binged 3 days in a row. Crazy and sad. So please don ´t be stupid like me.

So interesting thank you❤

I have found core being sore mimics the feeling of physical hunger. Likely you are equating the feeling of your core being sore with that which explains why it doesnt seem to go away no matter how much you eat.

I’m so glad I found you on my feed today! I’m almost 60 and I’ve struggled with binge eating as a teenager and adult. I am in trauma therapy with EMDR working on C-PTSD and that’s helped a lot but I still have those moments of food obsession. I’m looking forward to watching more of your videos. Subscribing!

This was so helpful! Thank you so much!

So true a lid on the anxiety and an illusion of peace. The illusion of safety...

Amazing chat and questions! Thank you!

Brilliant! Thanks for your work, Sarah and Markus! It was an especially interesting and useful episode! Most of the things are sooo relatable. In my opinion, there isn't enough information about the connection between sport and binge eating. By the way, ravenous hunger after exercising, even after a little run,is exactly what I feel. It felt to me like I'm broken because no one talks about it. I feel better now. Also,Sarah, have you read "Dopamine nation" by Anna Lembke?

✌️

This is an incredible gift to the world - thank you for making it accessible for all

Hate Fairburn. He’s clearly a narcissistic pseudo-scientist.

Thanks, I'll keep the book waiting in my ebook reader. Very good review 👌

Writing a book about something you have never experienced is a very difficult thing to do successfully, in my opinion.

Hmm... it feels like this book doesn't address the restrict part of the binge/restrict cycle. Eating to a strict schedule, even when I didn't feel like eating, is the biggest part of what helped me to break free of the cycle. Also, no food was off-limits to remove the guilt. I have not read this book, so I may be wrong!

Good book!

Thanks for realistic tips

Gosh! Another tear-jerker. Thank you Sarah

Your reflections are always so helpful. I was booked to come to see you in Brighton yesterday but have a terrible cold/cough and lost my voice. I wanted to ask you about the Zoe programme and how you felt about it and whether you'd recommend it to your clients.

I agree about the 'play time' in yoga. Yoga is very much 'me time'. I like to be on my mat, by myslef, with my eyes closed whenever possible, so that it can be a meditative practice. I dont want people in my space, on my mat, touching me, or even talking. So i get that completely 😊

Thank you! ❤

It's not only with the food its with every single thing that brings me pleasure plus its so hard for me to build focus and mindlfulness and if I did I'll have to white knuckle or my efforts will collapse in a moment just bc I did sth so pleasurable like eating sugar so I think it might be adhd

I just can't make it through PMS without binge eating. I know you have a video on it, but that's the biggest struggle for me. I can do really good for days 1-19 then 20-28 is just all prefrontal control goes out the window.

I would like to hear more about the medical/hormone part, if you are comfortable sharing it.

Thank you ❤

I am definitely going to purchase and study this book, even though I fully understand your criticisms, Sarah. On the one hand, I have struggled since toddlerhood (and I am now 69 years old, so we are talking a LONG time) with CPTSD and compulsive overeating, and I have had endless professional therapy as well as trying just about every diet and/or self-help program ever conceived. BUT, I also have a Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology, was a university professor for my entire career, and specialized in research based on the Rescorla-Wagner model! Given my deep understanding of the model, my intellectual curiosity is definitely piqued!!

Thank you for your insightful, thorough and extremely helpful review - I agree with much of what you observe in this book! ❣

Mine isnt a habit. Ive done trauma therapy for a year and only in the last month started to gain some normalcy around food. I mean it has been 50 years! Its glorious to not feel driven to eat.

Oh this book annoyed me.completly.

Very interesting! I always trust your book reviews and recommendations. Do you have any experience with binge-eating recovery apps? I would love a video on the best ones. I don't mean calorie counting apps, but ones where you track your moods, your environment when you eat, etc. Off the top of my head, I can think of Eating Buddy, RR Eating Disorder Management and Brighter Bite.

Great review. Thank you Sarah. I think I will be skipping this book lol.

Appreciate your candid reviews.

Its soo relatable! Subbed✅ Where to start if both overeating & scrolling are equally sensitive areas ?😢
