    I WANTED to binge - here's why it took me 10+ years to stop it (don't make the same mistakes as me)

    You don't binge because you love food. You binge because somewhere along the way, your nervous system learnt that food was the fastest way to create relief. After coaching thousands of women, I've realised something... Almost none of them have a food problem. They're the women who have spent their whole lives being "the strong one." The overthinker. The people pleaser. The perfectionist. The woman who always puts everyone else first. And when life becomes too much... Food becomes the one place where they finally get a break. That's why another meal plan hasn't worked. That's why more willpower hasn't worked. Because you can't heal a nervous system with another diet. In this week's podcast, I dive into the patterns I've seen across thousands of coaching calls and explain why binge eating isn't your problem... It's your brain's solution to a much deeper one. If you've ever wondered... "Why can I be so disciplined all day and then lose control at night?"

    Navigating food noise and binge eating post bodybuilding shows

    If you've ever finished a bodybuilding prep and found yourself thinking about food 24/7, binge eating, or feeling completely out of control... this podcast is for you. In this episode, I explain why post-show food noise isn't a lack of discipline—it's a combination of biology, psychology, and the nervous system trying to recover after months of restriction. We'll cover why you're constantly thinking about food, why binge eating is so common after a show, the biggest mistakes competitors make during prep that set them up for a difficult off-season, and what you can start doing now to build a healthier relationship with food without sacrificing your physique goals. Whether you're currently prepping, approaching show day, or struggling in your off-season, this episode will help you understand what's really happening beneath the surface—and why post-show doesn't create problems, it reveals them. If you want to become the kind of competitor who can thrive both on and off the stage, this episode is for you. My Instagram: elingranstrand & the.empoweredwoman Join The Empowered Woman Program.

    Stop binge eating AND lose weight - it is possible to do both

    One of the biggest lies the diet industry has ever sold us is this: "You need to fix your binge eating first... then you can think about losing weight." Or the opposite... "Just lose the weight first and your relationship with food will sort itself out." Neither is true. In this episode, I'm explaining why you can stop binge eating and lose 5–10kg at the same time. In fact... For most women, they're impossible to separate. Because binge eating isn't what keeps the weight on. The binge–restrict cycle does. Every Monday you start another diet.Every Friday you're exhausted from trying to be "good."Every weekend you binge.Then Monday starts all over again. It's not the binge that's the problem. It's everything happening before it. In this episode, I explain: Why restriction is actually making it harder to lose weight. Why food noise has to be addressed if you want lasting fat loss. How calming your nervous system makes healthy eating feel effortless. Why my clients lose weight because they stop fighting food—not despite it. You don't have to choose between food freedom and the body you want. When you fix the root cause, both happen together. Listen now! And if you've ever thought... "I need to lose weight first before I can work on my relationship with food." This episode might completely change the way you see your journey.
