Whats the best way to smother a binge before it snowballs, stopping it from gaining momentum, and spreading it to destroy your day, weeks, or decades? Well, we actually are going to talk about exactly that in today's episode.
Overcoming binge eating challenges must happen from several different angles. First, we can look at it from a prevention angle: identifying the triggers you experience and learning to prevent binge eating by developing helpful skills to address your thoughts and emotions. Second, you can think about how you can support yourself after a binge, to prevent the all or nothing pendulum swing from keeping you stuck in a binge-restrict cycle. Lastly, which Georgie and Christina will cover in today's episode, is how to stop a binge in the middle of one.
Once a binge has started, one of its defining characteristics is that it includes a sense of losing control, and that can be scary, but there are things you can do to extinguish the binge. You are not helpless in this situation. You are capable and you're the only person for the job.
