In this heartfelt and deeply insightful video, I tackle the complex issue of binge eating and the dilemma many face when trying to heal their relationship with food. The video starts by addressing the common advice given to those struggling with binge eating: to stop restricting and focusing on weight loss. This advice, though well-intentioned, presents a significant challenge for many who have spent years desiring a different body shape and cannot imagine a life where weight loss is not a goal.
The video acknowledges the wide range of experiences related to body image and eating disorders, including mobility or health struggles, body dysmorphia, and the impacts of fatphobia. It dives into the core of the dilemma: whether it's possible to recover from binge eating and still pursue weight loss. This question is critical for many, as the fear of gaining weight during recovery is a significant barrier. I share a personal, vivid memory of feeling trapped and disconnected from my body, highlighting the intense emotional distress that can accompany these struggles.
The narrative then shifts to discuss the transformative impact of Byron Katie's work on my journey towards recovery. Byron Katie's philosophy, which centers on questioning and challenging one's thoughts, is a powerful tool for overcoming the black and white thinking that often plagues those dealing with eating disorders. I share my experience of grappling with judgment and self-righteousness, demonstrating how Byron Katie's method helped me see beyond my entrenched beliefs.
The video emphasizes the importance of humility and openness to questioning one's beliefs about their body, food, and self-worth. It argues that much of what people believe about these topics is not grounded in objective reality but is instead a subjective truth shaped by personal experiences and biases. By challenging these beliefs, I suggest that individuals may be able to find relief and open themselves up to new possibilities for healing and self-discovery.
Hi I am interested in getting connected with a fellow recovering Binge eater as a support person or an accountable buddy. Is that something you could help me with? Thank you so much for this Channel.
I’ve pinned your comment so hopefully some likeminded folk will see it and respond. If you find someone you can both message me via my website and I swap your email addresses so you don’t have to publicly post any information.
I also have an online community and a number of people have connected through this and met up in person and online: www.patreon.com/lifeafterdiets
Me!
OK cool thanks so much!
I would love to find someone too.
Hi beautiful, powerful message. I needed to hear that. I struggle everyday with food and i feel my body is working against me often. I want to find that peace with food so desperately. I will continue working on it. Your videos are always so helpful. Thank you. 😘
I’m struggling so bad right now that’s it’s impacting my daily life. I’m just crying as I watch this. Thank you for this. I’m glad it showed up in my feed. ❤
Your way of thinking about this topic and then articulating it that is unique 😊❤
You come across as being so kind; it's really nice. 🤗
She is kind and brilliant!
We are all on different paths to finding peace, and freedom from our struggles. Thank you for offering us different perspectives as we continue on our journey. Your words always bring hope and much needed healing. Thank you from Canada.
Thank you. You are such a beautiful person. ❤
So interesting! In fact there's a video here on RUclips by Byron Katie which uses her 4 step process which is called "hungry all the time" which demonstrates the process and what's more is about perceived uncontrollable hunger. It's worth watching.
you have no fucking idea how hearing your words helps me at this difficult moment-i feel so heard and answered. i was so confused, but now, i just know exactly what to do. THANK YOU♥️
I want to thank you. You have made a huge impact on my life. Since listening to your book, I have found so much peace. It took time, but your words stuck with me. Very grateful for your gentle wisdom.
Thanks so much, perfect timing for me to hear this. Thank you for being vulnerable with this.
Sarah...you are a godsend. And so is Byron Katie. This video is a gift.
Can you tell me /us when the next support group session is?
I send reminders out on Tuesday as it’s this Sunday. Have you checked your spam/junk? If not, let me know!
@TheBingeEatingTherapist ohh no. It's not in junk... I will email you.
Your videos resonate with me. I take notes like I'm in class. The art of writing and reviewing solidifies the messages. You and your videos and work are a breath of fresh air. I appreciate your dedication and commitment to this (these) issues. Heartfelt thank you.
You're amazingly so gentle and compassionate❤. I've been watching your videos for a couple of weeks now and I feel you've become a special friend who's accompanying me in this insightful journey within myself. Thank you so much for making them, I'm not sure you realise but they are a real treasure to many of us out there. I've bought your book and I wish I could come to one of your conferences but I don't live in England. Maybe one day. For now, thanks a million.
I used to tell myself that and it worked. It’s a relief
A reminder I needed. Many thanks 🙏❤️
Yet again, your words are breaking through and clicking with me!! Makes me feel heard and understood and that I'm not alone. I've binged 3 times since the turn of the year thanks to your videos. Before that it was almost daily. All I can say is thank you ❤
I recently discovered your videos. You have great insight and information I have really needed to hear. I try to listen to one of your videos each day, even if it imeans repeating one. Thank you so much. I look forward to the next video!
This is ME! I want so badly to stop binge eating, but I am morbidly obese. I am not willing to accept that I am "fine" at my current size/weight/physical health.
I am struggling right now with bingeing every 4 to 4 days. Thank you for the video
Awesome. I love being lean but my "setpoint" is about 20kgs heavier, and I just feel crappy (physically and psychologically) when Im up there. So at the lower bodyweight Im constantly fighting my bodies desire to eat eat eat. And moderation, lol, I dont know moderation. Once I open the floodgates (ie eat one little "snack") its all on. Your channel is such a support and its so relieving to watch your stuff and hear things you say and think "yes! She gets it". ❤
I am so greatful for your message that the solution to stop binging is not restricting but acceptance. Since I started to allow myself to binge, the urges are less often and I don't eat as much. It is not easy to stop weighing myself every day and to stop controlling the food I eat. But it is making me feel better.
But I cannot believe what Byron Katie says. Because in the longterm it means, that it is all my fault. If I cannot recover, it is because I am telling myself a (false) story. I am sorry, but that is not helpful for me.
Of course it may not resonate with everyone. Just to share my perspective a little if that's ok: NONE of us are to blame. All we (or anyone) are guilty of is believing our thoughts. When I identify my thoughts, then my feelings and behaviour make sense and that is liberating to me. I can see the trap of using the method to self blame, but for me, it actually shows me that it isn't my fault. It may just be how my brain works
Thank you for all your videos, Sarah, they have really helped. Really helped. 'Will power' is something that I struggled with and I've just reframed it as 'choice power'. Will power is difficult but if I think of it as choice power, it's given me freedom to chose. I've used your videos to think about whether I need to eat a particular food NOW or do I give myself the choice to eat it later on if I still need it. It's my choice power.
As always, so helpful. Thank you!
Thank you! Watched the Byron Katie video linked in your description and now I have more tools in my tool box 🥰
We all have the tendency to want to be right. Jesus loves you and he is the One who can help us achieve true humility! Be blessed!
I wish I could let go of wanting to lose weight. 😢I’m trying so hard 😢
Good video!
Hi there, i have recently discovered your videos and they are so interesting and helpful, thank you so much. I can't find the link to the Byron Katie video in comments though, has it been removed? Sorry found it in description now - not a regular youtuber lol
What if the binge eating stems from emotional eating and eating as a way to "occupy" yourself? If it has nothing to do with you hating your body?
There is a belief system at play that feeds into emotions. Last week’s video was about emotional eating and I have a couple more that cover this, I’ll find the links for you….

@@TheBingeEatingTherapist thank you! I will watch them all! 🙏
Can you make a video about people who actually need to lose weight due to health reasons and prevention of future health reason?
✌️
This is not my body.... Tear the flesh from my bones.... THAT IS ME
Hi Sarah, I just finished watching byron katie's video from the link but I am confused about how I feel about it. I don't mean to be disrespectful or ungrateful in any way, but I feel hurt for the people in the video. And I am very confused because I know that Byron Katie is actually trying to help them, to set them free, but I felt a lot of sting in my heart and I don't understand why I feel this way. Or maybe I just did not understand it enough.
You could try searching for Byron Katie in YT and watch some more examples if you wanted to look deeper, but it’s also ok if it does not resonate. Stef isn’t a fan so she isn’t for everyone ❤️
@@TheBingeEatingTherapist I am going to try to dig a bit deeper. I really like the way she questions thoughts and beliefs. The turning it around part is where I feel so much resistance. Thank you Sarah! ♥️
But when you have severe osteoarthritis and the first thing you need to do for it is to lose weight?
We know that for many (not everyone) struggling with BED that focusing on weight loss increases bingeing behaviours. If this is you then the clinical advice would be to focus on regulating your appetite and calming down the bingeing and then make a decision about whether to pursue weight loss
What a wonderful woman 😍 i'm listening Byron Katie since yesterday evening and I'm just repeating : woow, wooow 🥹 Thank you so much
Once again thank you (coming from someone who lives in a country where the topic of eds still isn’t explored or taken seriously enough) 🤍
