| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast with Kirsten Sarfdy episode number 198. |
| 0:06.4 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast. It's time for you to end your food obsession |
| 0:11.2 | and begin 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 |
| 0:21.2 | tools and insights that you can apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get to it. |
| 0:30.2 | Hi, let's talk about feeling pressured to eat and also feeling pressured to not eat. |
| 0:41.7 | I see eating pressure happening with people both eating and not eating and it happens both with other people and alone. So today I want to talk with you about |
| 0:49.7 | all of it so you can stop feeling pressured about eating or not eating and therefore not experience |
| 0:55.5 | so much stress about eating or not eating and then ultimately feel free to do what you want to do. |
| 1:03.8 | It feels so much better to release the pressure around eating and I know because I used to experience |
| 1:10.7 | a lot of it and it was mostly with myself. |

| 1:47.7 | weight loss and to not eat foods for the same reason. And then there was the pressure to eat like |
| 1:54.8 | everyone else and eat what they're eating so that I could appear normal. Like if I was going to hang out with my friends and I knew |
| 2:02.1 | that we were going to order pizza and it wasn't what I really wanted. I didn't want to be the |
| 2:07.3 | only one not eating it and be the weirdo. So I eat it. So those are probably my most common |
| 2:14.2 | ways of pressuring myself with eating. And I will also share with you what I have |
| 2:19.8 | recently experienced pressure with that wasn't food. It was with drinking alcohol. I don't think |
| 2:26.5 | I've shared this on the podcast yet, but in 2021, I took a break from drinking. Right before the start |
