| 0:05.4 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating podcast. It's time for you to end your food obsession and begin |
| 0:10.9 | feeling confident and in control around food. You are absolutely capable of eliminating |
| 0:16.5 | binge eating from your life. And I'm going to show you how by giving you simple tools and |
| 0:20.8 | insights that you can apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get to it. |
| 0:29.3 | Hey, how are you? Welcome back. I hope you're having an amazing day and you're ready to learn |
| 0:35.0 | about why you want to binge eat. Now, you may be surprised by |

| 1:47.4 | anything but eating when you're feeling it. So you want out of it. You don't want to feel it |
| 1:53.2 | anymore. You want it to go away. And the easiest way to do that is to give the urge what it's |
