Summary
Food probably isn't scarce in your life but, you might be making it scarce in your mind if you're telling yourself you can't eat certain foods anymore or it's not enough.
But there's also the foods that actually are scarce like holiday specialities and seasonal foods. You might obsess about making sure you get them and maybe even overeat on them "while you can."
Either way, whether it really is scarce or if you're just making it scarce in your mind, it's possible for you to instead create abundance so you're not so consumed by the idea of eating that scarce food. Listen in to this episode to find out how.

| 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 |
| 0:17.3 | 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. |
| 0:24.4 | I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. |
| 0:26.6 | Now let's get to it. |
| 0:29.9 | Hi, let's jump right in and talk about food, scarcity, mindset. |
| 0:35.6 | What I mean by this is that you are making food scarce in your mind |
| 0:41.8 | when it's not actually scarce in your own life. There are millions of people in this world that have |
| 0:48.9 | true food scarcity and food insecurity and struggle with having enough food. Most of you listening do not fall |
| 0:57.0 | into that category, yet you still experience so much scarcity around food and it's contributing |

| 1:21.4 | and something you're totally making up in your mind. But sometimes there is food that is actually scarce, but you're making not |
| 1:30.2 | eating it into a way bigger deal than it actually is. What I mean by that second one is like if |
| 1:37.8 | there's a seasonal food that you can only get at a certain time of the year or a food that someone |
| 1:43.4 | you know makes for one particular |
| 1:45.5 | holiday. And if you don't eat it when it's available to you, it becomes this huge thing to you. |
| 1:51.9 | So in instances like that, that food won't be available to you all the time. It is scarce. |
| 1:58.1 | You may only get one chance to eat Aunt Mary's specialty because she only makes it for |
