Summary
Do you ever binge because you're wanting pleasure and you don't know what else to do? Then after you've eaten all that food, you totally regret it. Choosing to eat food was an impulsive decision but because you were feeling such a strong urge, it was hard to make a different decision.
If this happens to you, I want to help you to stop being so impulsive when you're wanting pleasure and start being more intentional. I'm going to help you to make decisions that you don't regret later and help you to feel less urges to binge too. Listen in to this episode so find out how you're going to do it.

| 0:00.0 | You're listening to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast with Kirsten Sarty episode number 325. |
| 0:06.5 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast. It's time for you to end your food obsession and begin |
| 0:12.0 | 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 |
| 0:21.3 | tools and insights that you can apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get |
| 0:27.6 | to it. Hello, in today's episode, I'm going to be talking with you about intentional pleasure |
| 0:36.1 | and impulsive pleasure. |
| 0:39.1 | Pleasure is an important topic to talk about on this podcast because eating is pleasurable. |
| 0:45.8 | And not only do we eat to fuel our bodies, but we also eat for pleasure. |
| 0:50.2 | And for some of you, one of the main reasons that you binge is because you are seeking |

| 1:35.0 | With both of these, you're setting yourself up to binge on pleasure. |
| 1:39.9 | Either you're not giving yourself enough of the food pleasure you want or you're not giving |
| 1:44.7 | yourself enough of pleasure in general that you want. And listen, if you think the amount of pleasure |
| 1:50.1 | you want is too much, it probably isn't. Us humans want pleasure. We desire pleasure. We are |
| 1:57.3 | innately pleasure seekers. It's just how we are. And we are likely going to seek pleasure |
| 2:03.4 | every single day, especially if we've experienced a lot of the opposite throughout the course of the |
| 2:09.7 | day with mental tiredness, stress, overwhelm, sadness, loneliness, or other emotions occurring |
