Summary
Do you ever look to other people to determine how long it will take for you to stop binge eating? Or do you just make up an amount of time you think it will take based on, well, zero data? What if you're completely wrong, it takes longer, and then you get discouraged. That's not going to be good.
In this episode, I'm talking about what determines how long it will take for you to stop binge eating and, spoiler alert, it has nothing to do with how long it's taken other people to do it. I'm also giving you a tip for how you can avoid feeling discouraged by your expectations. Listen in so you can create realistic expectations, feel more patient, and get that success you're expecting!

| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast with Kirsten Sarty, episode number 119. |
| 0:06.3 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast. It's time for you to end your food obsession and begin |
| 0:11.8 | feeling confident and in control around food. You are absolutely capable of eliminating |
| 0:17.4 | binge eating from your life. And I'm going to show you how by giving you simple tools and insights that you can apply in your own life. |
| 0:24.5 | I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get to it. |
| 0:29.9 | Hey, let's get right down to business. Let's talk about your expectations for your success. You've probably had moments where you think about |
| 0:41.4 | when you'll stop binge eating. You have ideas for how long it will take. And this is most likely based |
| 0:47.2 | on what other people have said about their experiences or just from what you've come up with in your |
| 0:53.7 | head without any data for why. People all the |
| 0:58.5 | time think that the amount of time they've been binge eating somehow correlates with how long |
| 1:03.7 | it will take for them to stop binge eating. And if that's you, go back and listen to episode |
| 1:08.4 | number 92 about stopping binge eating after many years. |
| 1:11.8 | I don't know where people get this idea from. |

| 1:18.8 | Because time really has nothing to do with it. |
| 1:22.5 | You could literally stop bingeing right now. |
| 1:25.4 | It doesn't matter how long you've been binging for. |
| 1:28.1 | You could just decide to never give in to another urge and then just not do it. |
| 1:33.7 | That is a possibility. You have that power. Time is not what matters. What actually matters in how |
| 1:40.8 | long it's going to take for you to stop binge eating is how many reasons you have |
