How Mechanical Eating Can Help You Stop Binge Eating | S. Day Therapy

Описание: If your hunger feels unpredictable or you swing between bingeing and restriction, this one’s for you. Your body isn’t broken – it’s trying to protect you. Let’s explore how to help it feel safe again.

🎥 IN THIS LESSON I SHARE:

🍽️ What Mechanical (Structured) Eating Is (0:45–2:00)
Why this evidence-based approach is used in eating disorder recovery – and how it helps you rebuild consistency and body trust.

⚖️ Why Hunger Cues Become Unreliable (2:00–3:00)
What really happens to your hunger hormones and body cues after years of dieting or bingeing – and why you can’t just “trust your hunger” right away.

⏰ Point 1 (3:00–4:00): What really happens when you start eating every few hours – and why this one shift can change everything about your relationship with food.

🔁 Point 3 (5:00–6:00): How to stop swinging between “being good” and “losing control” – and the science behind why it keeps happening.

🧠 Point 4 (6:00–7:00): What decision fatigue has to do with overeating – and why structure might be the secret to food freedom (especially if you have ADHD).
