| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast with Kirsten Sarty episode number 44. |
| 0:05.2 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast. |
| 0:07.8 | It's time for you to end your food obsession and begin feeling confident and in control around food. |
| 0:13.6 | You are absolutely capable of eliminating binge eating from your life. |
| 0:17.7 | And I'm going to show you how by giving you simple tools and insights that you can |
| 0:21.7 | apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarkty. Now let's get to it. Hi, how are you |
| 0:30.8 | feeling? Are you feeling tired? It is a common thing to feel these days. So much going on, not enough sleep, exhausting yourself. |
| 0:40.8 | And then you fall into the eating trap because of it. I wanted to do an episode on binge eating |
| 0:46.4 | or even just overeating when you're tired because so often people tell me the reason why they |
| 0:51.4 | binge or overeat is because they're tired. They're just so tired |
| 0:56.2 | that they don't care anymore or don't want to think about anything or just want to pick me up |

| 1:12.5 | so tired that I want to cancel plans with my friends or if I don't want to make any because I'm tired. |
| 1:18.9 | I try to avoid it as best I can. I do my best to not stay up too late, even on the weekends. I take |
| 1:25.0 | naps when I can. I'm all about those eight-ish hours of sleep because |
| 1:29.1 | life can be challenging enough when I'm fully awake and alert. So I want to avoid making it more |
| 1:34.7 | difficult to deal with whatever life has in store for me each day. But what happens when I am |
| 1:39.4 | tired? It happens. Amid my best efforts, sometimes I don't get to sleep as much as I want to. |
| 1:45.5 | There was even a stretch of time not long ago that it was common for me to wake up in the |
| 1:49.3 | middle of the night and not fall back asleep for an hour or two. And I still had to get up to |
| 1:53.8 | work in the morning. So sleeping later wasn't an option. So I had to push through and work tired. |
