Summary
Are you a lonely binge eater? I sure was! I binged because I felt lonely often and it was a tough cycle to get out of – I felt lonely, so I binged to feel better, and then I'd feel even more lonely after. I also would feel very confused because sometimes I'd feel lonely when I was alone, sometimes I wouldn't, and sometimes I'd even feel lonely when I was with people. How could that be?
Loneliness is not determined by who you are or aren't around. In this episode I'm talking about why you feel lonely and what you should and shouldn't do in order to cure your loneliness. Luckily, you don't have to go out and be social everyday to make it happen! You can be alone and feel good and I'm going to show you how.

| 0:16.3 | binge eating from your life, and I'm going to show you how by giving you simple tools and |

| 0:21.1 | that you can apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get to it. |
| 0:29.0 | Hi, if you're listening to this on release day and you celebrate Christmas, Merry Christmas. |
| 0:36.6 | I hope you have a wonderful day full of joy and laughter. And if you're |
| 0:41.0 | listening to this any other day or if you don't celebrate Christmas, I hope you're still filling your day |
| 0:45.9 | with joy and laughter. I'm of course recording this episode a couple weeks before Christmas, |
| 0:50.5 | but I'll tell you, I'm pretty excited about this one. As I think I've mentioned before |
| 0:55.2 | on this podcast, I lived in California for about 13 years, and I'm in my first year living back |
| 1:00.4 | home in Massachusetts. And it's been awesome, by the way. And this will be my first Christmas |
| 1:05.9 | with my family since I think 2011. Since then, I've had some Christmases with friends, and I've also had some |
| 1:13.6 | Christmases alone. Now, before you get all sad for me, which people did whenever I'd tell them |
| 1:19.9 | what I was doing or what I did, know that I chose to be alone. I always had at least a couple |
| 1:25.4 | friends in town that invited me to go to the movies with them |
| 1:28.3 | or come over, but I declined for whatever my reason was that year. Usually it was because I just |
| 1:33.7 | didn't want to get dressed and leave home. I just wanted to stay home and watch Christmas movies |
| 1:39.7 | and FaceTime with my family for a little bit. Other times it was because I'd worked so much around Christmas because so many of my |
| 1:46.9 | coworkers or colleagues, depending on my job at the time, were out of town. |
| 1:51.0 | And I'd pick up extra shifts and I just wanted to relax and not be around people. |
