| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast with Kirsten Sarty, episode number 291. |
| 0:06.4 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast. It's time for you to end your food obsession and begin |
| 0:11.9 | feeling confident and in control around food. You are absolutely capable of eliminating |
| 0:17.5 | 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. |
| 0:30.1 | Hello, in so many of these podcast episodes, I've talked with you about feeling through your urges to binge. Instead of eating |
| 0:41.6 | to make the urge go away, you allow it to be there, you let yourself feel it. And as long as |
| 0:47.1 | you're keeping as calm as you can while feeling the urge, instead of fighting or resisting the urge, |

| 1:28.0 | Yet when it comes time to do it, they don't want to do it. So they decide not to, and instead, |
| 1:33.4 | they decide to eat. Then when they feel awful after eating all that food, they regret not feeling |
| 1:39.9 | through the urge. But then when the next one comes, they do the same thing again. They make the same |
| 1:45.2 | decisions because they don't want to feel through the urge then either. So if they want to not binge |
| 1:51.2 | and not eat when they feel that urge to binge or not eat if there is going to be some kind of |
| 1:57.0 | negative consequence if they eat, they have to make the decision to feel the urge and to not |
| 2:03.0 | eat. Truthfully, they have to want to feel the urge. I know it sounds crazy because like, |
