Summary
Do you feel guilty after you binge? Do you feel apathetic, resigned, or indifferent? These are all feelings that make sense to feel after you do something that's so destructive to your life. But are they useful? That's not really a question we consider.
In this episode, I'm talking about how our post-binge feelings affect our future binges and how you can make sure you're setting yourself up for success. You have authority over how you handle yourself after you binge so listen in to find out how you can do better and be better.

| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the StopBinge Eating Podcast with Kirsten Sarty, episode number 89. |
| 0:05.7 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast. |
| 0:08.3 | It's time for you to end your food obsession and begin feeling confident and in control around food. |
| 0:14.0 | You are absolutely capable of eliminating binge eating from your life, |
| 0:18.3 | and I'm going to show you how by giving you simple tools and |
| 0:21.0 | insights that you can apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get to it. |

| 1:26.3 | And a few weeks ago, she shared with me that she no longer |
| 1:29.1 | feels guilty and questioned whether or not that was good or bad. She was worried that if she didn't |
| 1:36.5 | feel bad about it, then she'd just keep doing it. And I think this is a legitimate concern for a lot of |
