| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast with Kirsten Sarty, episode number 206. |
| 0:06.6 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast. |
| 0:09.3 | It's time for you to end your food obsession and begin feeling confident and in control around food. |
| 0:15.0 | You are absolutely capable of eliminating binge eating from your life. |
| 0:19.2 | And I'm going to show you how by giving you simple |
| 0:21.4 | tools and insights that you can apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get |

| 1:30.6 | standards, which I know is a poor measuring tool. But I say that just so you can get an idea of what |
| 1:35.7 | my body looked like. I was overweight by about 12 pounds, which was just below the midpoint of what is |
| 1:43.6 | considered overweight. |
