Breaking Up With Binge Eating Confident Eaters Channel

This week, we are excited to share a Client interview from our 1:1 coaching program. Join Coach Christina and her former client, Maddie, as they discuss her journey of overcoming the binge and restrict cycle and developing food freedom.
We all have different challenges, backgrounds, habits, and lifestyles. Maddie shares her story as someone who loves to challenge herself physically, eat healthful meals, and support herself emotionally and spiritually.
But she was struggling! She was going through a lot of change and went back to some old habits of binge eating. "I thought I was past all of this!", she thought, and like so many other people, she hid in shame, trying to figure out on her own for a while. 
Maddie was once in your shoes, looking for a solution to her binge eating and found this podcast. In listening some more, she realized that she could use the support of a coach to overcome her challenges. 
We covered a lot of topics, including:
Why Maddie reached out in the first place and what made the Confident Eating approach different then things she had tried in the past.What Maddie's biggest challenges were before our work together and the obstacles she has overcome since. What it means to do the inner work of self discovery and dusting off the shame to overcome long held habits and beliefs around food and body image. Thanks to Maddie for being our guest on this week's episode and sharing her valuable experience!

"I don't know how to rest without feeling guilty". "If I rest too much I will lose my ability to work hard." or "I don't want to be lazy!" Have you ever thought these things? Then you might be experiencing what we call rest aversion.

Join Georgie and Christina, as we talk about that feeling of guilt you might sometimes experience when you try to slow down or rest and what to do about it.

If you struggle to rest from exercise, work, or getting stuff done, then we want you to know that resting can play an important role in not only binge eating recovery but also in creating a balanced and healthy lifestyle.

If you want to learn to trust yourself in rest and begin to incorporate more rest in play into your life, then check out this week's episode.

Join coach Georgie and the Confident Eaters team in today's episode, as we discuss recent updates to Emotional Eating and Binge Eating Disorder in one our monthly coaches education meeting.
One of the papers we discuss in this conversation is all about self control. If you struggle with self control or wondered if you can maximize your own, then we have good news for you! Self control is something we can strengthen and develop, no matter what your starting point is. It's like building a muscle. It takes time and you have to work on it. One of the things we learned was that your self control is actually strongest when you're part of a group or team. 
If you want to hear the episode where we explain our 3 D Process for getting past an urge, check out the episode here.
In the second paper, we discuss how common emotional eating is! The research shows that the way we cope with emotional stress can be helpful or harmful to our wellbeing. Higher levels of emotional eating are linked to higher body weight, disordered eating and depression and anxiety. We also learned that catastrophizing and self blame are particularly problematic for emotional eating and binge eating.
In order to help with these things, we will discuss how to de-catastrophize or take things more lightly after a mistake. We want to work on reducing the automatic self blame that many of us struggle with. We will discuss the antidote to self blame, which is also shown to be one of the most helpful treatments to healing from emotional eating and binge eating. Want to know what it is? Check out the episode! .

In this episode, Georgie and Christina talk about the experience many of us have when we try to get too much done and end up not getting anything done. Have you been there?

If you often find yourself living in this tension of knowing how much is "enough", sprinting through life at a hurried pace to be "productive" and only punctuating your errands through bouts of binge eating or compulsive overeating, you would probably benefit from supporting yourself through real rest and margin.

Finding the sweet spot of being productive and supporting yourself requires getting to know your capacity, pacing yourself, and regularly adjusting your expectations. If you want to know how we work through these things with clients, then you don't want to miss this episode.

Everybody is "stressed", but we don't always understand exactly what that means. We believe that not all stress is bad. It is a protective mechanism that helps us survive situations in life. It also allows us to be challenged and have meaningful experiences. At the same time, if we are stacking stress on top of itself without coming back to baseline, it can cause some health problems and if we don't know how to manage it well, we can develop some maladaptive behaviors like binge eating. 
So, how can we be clear on what to do with stress if we don't want a life totally devoid of it? That's exactly what we are talking about in today's episode. Join coach Georgie and one of the coaches from the Confident Eaters team, Christina, as we explore four elements that you can use to manage the stress in your life.

In this episode, you'll hear from Phyllis. She has been a client of mine for a while, and lately, she has been moving away from unhealthy eating patterns like emotional eating and binge eating and moving toward healthy, balanced eating that helps her achieve weight loss. She has done some amazing work since we first started meeting, but she still finds that she has difficulty with grazing between meals, especially when work stress hits.

Phyllis represents what the process can look like when someone has stopped binge eating, but still hasn't been able to master the art of stopping at satisfied. We were also able to discuss how to manage the thoughts and feelings like "I'm not far enough along". Have you ever felt that way? Then you don't want to miss today's episode.
