Welcome to the American Glutton podcast.
2:28
Thank you. It's a pleasure. to be here.
2:30
I am fascinated.
2:33
by your book the been code
2:35
They want to talk to about that, wanna
2:38
know a, you know, definitely
2:40
was a binge eater and. And
2:43
I would do it mostly in private, didn't
2:45
also. I don't
2:47
know the proper way to phrase
2:49
this, but was not, but we make his, do
2:51
you find that those two things are?
2:54
fairly integrated, like most people
2:57
who binge eat or believe it or is that,
2:59
or can they be very distinctly
3:01
separate things? would say
3:03
there's a lot of similarities am,
3:06
but the only real difference between
3:08
someone who's binge eater summers polemic as
3:10
he decides to.
3:12
hurts their food afterwards, so
3:14
often someone who's a benji either. After
3:16
binge episode, they may decide to restrict
3:18
different and takes it might need for the next day
3:20
or fast. But
3:22
some the premier they just choose to
3:25
purge the seats to the vomit the Fed up and,
3:27
it's not that big difference to be honest
3:30
and it surprises me how you. definitely
3:32
the treated Well. People think
3:34
your soon as you approach your food you're not completely different
3:36
landscape and it's the, same
3:39
behavior, but I do believe that the
3:41
really quite close, yeah, they're. They're like
3:43
if there's a spat giants back from on
3:45
how we treat food those two things
3:47
are fairly. close
3:50
together and then You
3:52
know, in in, looking at
3:55
it. How did you encounter many
3:57
people who just became? So,
3:59
he? Oh.
4:02
The static towards the idea
4:04
of escaping that pattern
4:06
that. Layton, you know whatever
4:08
same they would feel a.
4:11
you know i'm saying all this because this was my experience
4:14
this some kind of shame
4:16
at your behavior the
4:18
behavior becomes so commonplace
4:21
and normal that you're just like I'm
4:24
just going experience shame for being alive,
4:26
and this behavior is just the way I
4:28
express being a lives
4:31
The to the one hundred percent.
4:33
them and is an interest
4:36
in Potter and sixteen way that is the case.
4:39
Then.
4:40
Because. It if you find yourself binging on
4:42
for if you go on a diet or any diet have
4:44
food rules what you should and shouldn't and,
4:47
efforts of restrictive diet. You tend to start
4:49
to trigger these side effects for you get more hunger,
4:51
more powerful hungry may trigger starvation
4:53
mode and you might find yourself experience
4:56
in these really powerful or. Just eat lots
4:58
of food, and generally it's
5:00
the food that you're not supposed to eat I mean
5:02
no one benches one solid so can be
5:04
refined carbohydrates chocolate. whatever
5:07
and then as soon as you do breakfast food road You
5:10
can have gotten black and white think in will have started
5:12
no somos will continue and.
5:14
you may think yourself hello mate scenes remain
5:16
tomorrow making a different mindset so tonight
5:18
wanna blame yourself to do this on my tickets on into this
5:21
situation so Diet
5:23
can set some looked at me to be in the mainstream
5:26
was want to maximize potentially much
5:28
as possible initial times past. You
5:31
wake up the next day and you think
5:33
self or of the and. Hey I
5:36
have not my stick to my diet as you beat yourself
5:38
up already and, were sold
5:40
this image use you see the images ever
5:42
been super successful on dad's
5:45
and the meek look so easy and dust bowl
5:47
of a bigger podcast business you really Play
5:49
in the challenges of that there is lot
5:51
of challenges and mental mindset stuff
5:54
that goes along with it but. they'll
5:56
release they'll so they're blaming themselves because lot
5:58
of guilt does not seem why am i The not good
6:00
enough to stick to that. "We are
6:02
insane the people to come to us, the tend to
6:04
be really successful in other areas of their life.
6:07
And you just can't get a handle the. On this
6:09
diet and the not really isn't this just body
6:11
responding to the deck sprouts not didn't write
6:13
due to stress. So.
6:16
Often, then they'll think to themselves
6:18
the next day I'm gonna try even harder to
6:20
be better than the stat and going to be cleaner,
6:23
more stricter, and of course
6:25
it doesn't. Work that way because if they're again
6:27
like the sinister respect and under their bodies
6:30
needs I'm. esther not even
6:32
though so deftly trigger starvation mode you can
6:34
experience is powerful craven Then
6:37
we can have said like holding your breath
6:39
for see match. When you got them
6:41
most will turn the world, but your body
6:44
survival mechanism gonna kick in is going to make it
6:46
breaks. And he seems
6:48
to have enough water, you know, the source
6:50
kicks in, or even think about is a must have
6:52
water as the see him, but so. When
6:54
it enters the word "mess obvious", but
6:57
see under eight for period of time eventually
6:59
going to kick off this. Kramer need
7:01
to eat. More powerful
7:03
than your well part to resist the just
7:05
really is, so then they find themselves.
7:08
The engine game and the really confused
7:11
because we're so determined not to do this behavior. The
7:14
don't know what he can do so then the got
7:16
the next day the go where I'm going to train harder to
7:18
be more on this diet and it
7:20
just stuck in the cycle of sexy
7:23
and binge eating too sexy can binge eating
7:26
a. no matter how hard to try to resist The
7:28
and because it's survival mechanism to get
7:30
some food know this isn't for everybody but for Daffy
7:32
there's percentage of population when the eat and.
7:35
they want to that experience these primal hungers
7:37
that are just overwhelming like every
7:39
fiber of the body wants to eat food and it's and
7:41
discount resisted why resisted think are
7:44
most the as important thing here and
7:46
for me it's
7:48
strictly anecdotal and strictly from like
7:50
my expand, it's communicating with other people
7:52
about this but.
7:54
Like. For the longest
7:56
time I considered that the
7:59
diet. The solve me because
8:01
my biggest issue was that needed
8:03
to lose weight, and never once
8:06
for many years. Look,
8:09
that my own behavior and
8:11
he. Then, you know, because would
8:13
experience that would restrict food
8:15
on for a in various ways.
8:18
They're very, very extremely or I'm
8:21
entirely restricting into food
8:23
groups and. and
8:25
then once that period
8:27
was done some had cheap the result
8:29
that i thought made me made normal person normal
8:32
as close to normal as was ever done
8:34
a dead I would.
8:36
mentally fall back into my own habits,
8:38
so there wasn't ever have a or
8:41
Earth's, you know, there is very much now
8:43
and there has been very much in the last few years,
8:45
but there wasn't long period going like"
8:47
What were the
8:51
behaviors? and habits and that
8:53
got me to the place and i math and
8:56
what happens if have really examine
8:58
those things like things like
9:00
binge eating and you're absolutely right like right
9:02
would never been to eat celery You
9:05
know what I mean, like, yeah, could maybe
9:07
binge eat salary if you covered in peanut
9:09
butter and reasons and honey
9:12
or which is dressing like in that
9:14
sense, but really it's just like a spoon
9:16
to get that other stuff and to me. What
9:19
I have now in this, a
9:21
have a. The duration
9:24
of myself. Right to
9:26
binge eat salary and you kind of get
9:28
to place where you're like your body goes like I've had
9:30
enough celery and you're not you're not you can
9:33
you're not dying, you're not like you
9:35
know that I actually
9:37
really enjoy. The
9:40
feeling of. No
9:42
more room. In my stomach,
9:45
needed to get to that place and
9:47
if eat slowly that.
9:50
That feeling of. The name.
9:53
Sooner without having consumed enough,
9:55
and so I felt like missed out on consuming
9:57
something site a very quickly.
10:00
And just wanted to get as much in there as possible,
10:02
and then there's this like. Almost euphoric
10:05
sensation with being.
10:08
Wheatley overstuffed, you know,
10:10
and so.
10:12
The actively working against that
10:14
feeling that I associate with feeling
10:16
good is tough.
10:19
Yeah. So you're talking to by the Kennedy Euphoria,
10:21
the bench high that comes from consumer
10:23
lots of food you eat a lot of sugar into your system
10:26
and studies the short triggers. Off like
10:28
endorphins and happy chemicals, especially
10:30
if you've been deprived and yourselves with these foods,
10:32
and you give yourself on once.
10:35
So I mean that the staff you kiss not
10:37
nice can be a knock on effect again from
10:39
restrictive diet a. few give
10:41
yourself for example chocolate bar
10:44
any chocolate For two months,
10:46
three months. It is going to start
10:48
looking lot more tasty whenever you do see chocolate
10:50
bar and. you've had
10:52
just starting to complicate your relationship
10:54
with food They were before
10:56
is just bar of chocolate nerds, this thing
10:58
that you worship and you're like your craven
11:01
and your food deprived of them is more special
11:03
than ever before.
11:05
They, when you do break your food, was in your line,
11:07
your self taught that there's a part of us actually
11:09
just.
11:10
nourishing yourself going, you know when you deserve.
11:13
The how to sing that you've created and why
11:15
you deprive yourself life's tough not
11:17
last for years of in crazy, it's you something
11:19
people just trying their best to get five was really
11:21
understandable. It's
11:24
really understand why that can happen am.
11:27
and again and again and again know you are
11:30
helping successful that's what to do believe
11:33
You. Know the dating culture does
11:35
have lots of safe word and complicating
11:37
these relationships people have with food and know your
11:39
personal story think he mentioned I,
11:41
totally agree with next. Five or six
11:44
your put on your first that I'm sure that did
11:46
complicated relationship. to we
11:48
try to do here with the bench good as really bring
11:50
it back
11:51
And try to get all that bullshit way or that
11:53
anxiety, stress, fear, worry concerned
11:56
food rules to do with shouldn't try
11:58
to get it back to.
12:00
Your body and of simple
12:02
relationship with the food itself and,
12:04
so off we want to get your place for
12:07
your just turn into your hunger And
12:09
you're craving foods they're going to make you feel
12:11
good and in while you're eating you're paying
12:13
attention to the surgeon and been realized
12:15
what foods work for you personally basket everyone's
12:18
got their own unique eating. foods
12:20
and
12:21
What? We tried to swing to simplify all that weight on
12:24
does, are we to simplify, simplify some sites
12:26
that's a complicated landscape, other
12:29
dude it's so complicated and
12:31
I love what you're? Talking about N and
12:34
working towards because this has been
12:36
for me one of the hardest areas because
12:38
like these, signals
12:41
i think of like think of like a normal
12:43
person right i call people normal people don't
12:46
mean it to be insulting but just think like people
12:48
who can have a beer or i'm sober
12:50
guy so people can have beer normal people
12:53
in that sense and people who You
12:55
know, are not compelled to overeat
12:57
or normal people in that sense, I just
13:00
imagine the average now or
13:02
moving more and more towards, we're
13:04
that's not going to be the norm on the normal, a it
13:06
at least in the, you know. The
13:09
western culture is more.
13:11
of the people who are binge eating probably
13:13
it seems like that is growing That
13:16
bear arms.
13:18
But like this thing of like
13:21
trying. to get in tune with your body
13:23
and figure out what's whose work
13:25
for your body him what you're having cravings for and
13:28
how hungry you actually are this
13:30
is a really hard thing to
13:33
do i've found like it takes
13:35
lot of
13:37
Like really paying attention and
13:39
paying attention in situations where
13:42
up in the past for me everything
13:44
was done compulsively, so
13:46
to try to like strip that
13:48
away and just like, "Be present
13:51
what does my body want for real,
13:53
you know, versus" You know,
13:55
because I could, could say like. What
13:58
what what?
14:00
What will make me feel best right
14:02
now is a fight, hydrated
14:04
and drank lot of water, but I'm looking at people
14:06
drinking beer and my body saying
14:08
drunkenness would be fun and
14:11
so, you know, there's got to navigate
14:13
through these ideas little bit. To
14:16
help Citigroup points to, one
14:18
of the putting talked about it would be normal
14:21
is such big thing for us to book of people
14:23
come to us and the last thing they think there
14:25
are is normal for am
14:27
with am people of as you for twenty thirty forty
14:29
years Really. You
14:32
are normal and it's just very
14:34
normal, not short side effect of high
14:36
body works espouses. The
14:38
main, and if you start the engine on food, your relations
14:40
happy chemicals many foreman habit.
14:43
Very. Not normal natural habits, as
14:46
exact same, someone we all have stressful day
14:48
at work and come home in one of the glass of wine
14:50
or someone stress of cigarette. To
14:52
see him associations so,
14:54
we like to bring her back to the be all it is not
14:56
them is just not sure how the body
14:59
works what's can have Good starting place for
15:01
them, but yeah you're right in terms
15:03
of how to get see place where
15:05
you trust your, body and
15:07
your body is able to give. You the, cracks
15:09
signals and that you're
15:11
confident your body belly to navigate
15:14
the food landscape I've there is
15:16
it turns out it as journey and it's
15:18
not the. First step for people who come to
15:20
us we do with people works demand to
15:22
have been struggling. but benjamin bohemia sword
15:26
what we normally do would look into sick
15:28
and to balance their body And
15:30
looking to bring sort of structure and
15:32
or molly to their eating habits, so. You.
15:35
Will it be made say start eating regular suits spread
15:37
the day start on this new blood sugar,
15:40
see white rethink bit and protein fat and carbs
15:42
and you to human? Males are really simple
15:44
fact I will not gonna much more was done that,
15:47
and you can pretty much whatever you want the songs trying
15:50
to get some you trust in there's. Your
15:52
body's nourished. We
15:54
find even know simple steps to seat and regular
15:56
foods not liking self get into hungry.
15:59
To. Really come the body dine
16:01
with them for weeks six weeks expense
16:03
of mass production, those big cravens
16:06
starts come back and to like normal hunger
16:08
levels I'm, I'm
16:10
at that. Stage you can start to be mindful of the
16:12
hunger see studies in the structure to keep in place
16:15
but if you're just shouldn't your body, and
16:18
districts and couple of. Months but as he become
16:20
aware of your body but still kinda fallen, plan
16:23
start understand what so different from
16:25
spark and you can think will have i putting for breakfast
16:28
Not so hungry later on, you know, we start a seat
16:30
belt, the relationships, and that's how you build your
16:32
conference over time, but just. Paying
16:35
attention, we call it insight &
16:37
because each time you eat, you should really start
16:39
to get knowledge from that made it harder
16:41
to make you feel so nothing's off limits you're
16:44
gonna have a McDonald's or Burger that's fine. Then.
16:46
Attention to the test pattern to the experience
16:49
and afterwards and our little harder to make
16:51
you feel are you rather fight are you hungry again
16:54
and you start to then figure. Out what works best for you,
16:56
that when sprayed not very normal and it's skill
16:58
that you get better, ah, but certainly start
17:00
north and sec each flicker climbing
17:03
mount. Everest one of her sandals you the guy can
17:05
do this city much, yeah, from
17:07
you can't just have to work your way them, I think
17:09
we're think what you're talking. About is super important
17:12
because if you break it down to really small.
17:15
Segments that are totally confront
17:17
about, you know, this is like. Then.
17:20
It I would never tell somebody
17:23
who's starting out. Then. gym
17:25
or who's going to the gym the first time can
17:27
just do my exercise routine
17:29
in or mean, like, has been lifting weights now
17:31
for almost ten years and. And
17:34
so, like, think it would just be stupid
17:36
to like, just like, oh, do what do makes
17:38
no sense to me, think.
17:40
There's gotta be a beginning point in, especially
17:42
if you want to see some, the have long term success.
17:45
It should build gradually and you
17:47
can add to it and like.
17:51
I remember when was.
17:55
eating were anything i
17:57
wanted or you know am
18:00
Enjoy eating daily, you know,
18:02
out of sight of my friend's end of the night
18:04
to am, and I'm going to the drive through
18:07
and might buying food
18:09
for six and going home and eating
18:11
all of that right.
18:14
I never.
18:15
understood how that made me feel, cause
18:17
I kind of always felt like crap
18:19
or and, and that was such a normal
18:22
state that I couldn't even recognize
18:24
that felt like crap that was just how felt
18:27
right and so.
18:29
I. Think it's hard to get perspective
18:31
if something is so normal
18:33
and so commonplace, then it
18:36
that it's hard to go you can go like
18:38
I would like to feel. Better, but don't
18:40
even recognize how poorly feel
18:43
right, so if you do this in a
18:45
very slow, gradient manner.
18:47
I think you can sit there and go like
18:49
now I'm very aware if eat
18:52
something and then like need to take a nap
18:54
half an hour later this is disaster
18:57
like this food becomes very quickly
18:59
on list of like the. The final
19:01
want to eat anymore, right, because I don't like feeling
19:04
like dad. even
19:06
to be honest with you.
19:08
Enjoy! The taste of this
19:10
like a very low sugar,
19:13
low fat ice cream, right,
19:15
but when I eat it at night always
19:18
wake up feeling a little crummy
19:20
and I can. Rationalize it by going
19:22
like, "Whoa, you know, didn't need
19:24
to many calories yesterday, didn't have too
19:26
much sugar didn't have too much fat
19:28
my day was still mostly" Protein but still
19:30
wake up slightly hung over
19:33
since so have to go like shit.
19:36
man i'm in a limit this stuff the not
19:38
i mean because this is just not as i'm so i'm see
19:40
to have you can give me as if as
19:42
an informed choice the and sometimes
19:44
if you might think caution to the when does a toddler
19:47
years has it's more mana that's fine too
19:49
right and that's the problem there's no ultimately
19:52
during the land is no clear cut
19:54
right or wrong answer it's moment by moment
19:56
thing as decision have to make best
19:59
and how you're feeling that Sometimes we
20:01
just needed scream your domain, sometimes set
20:03
at the wonder, what's inside my other times,
20:06
you know, we've been place where he got fine and be
20:08
the right now? What is known to
20:10
dinner from the for the right reasons? But
20:13
your point would you send bike? Nom
20:16
it is it is thus, we
20:18
have the all the time people come to us and I think
20:20
perhaps even, Bolivia
20:22
and that active person even mix
20:24
people see more, numb and
20:26
damn it can be quite can journey to go.
20:28
through because we've
20:30
had people it's like We felt
20:33
anything prick twenty thirty years is
20:35
can miss cloud they. are not
20:37
are one person we had seven
20:39
is a meal My. Home after
20:41
dinner program and serve to take long time
20:43
for she was quite while, but she got place
20:46
where she was beaten balance of food in the start.
20:48
To reinstate for walk and,
20:51
she says the first time ever felt rain on her
20:53
face that properly and
20:55
she started cry but she couldn't tell, if
20:57
it was. Rainer tears and I was the missing the last
21:00
out any crimes seriously, there and
21:02
that's the sort of thing as i knew that Then.
21:05
Sometimes the yard tops and explode,
21:07
and at it's hard to get perspective. The
21:10
how you'd feel if you got out of I played
21:12
in and started up north so.
21:14
Absolutely, I get when you come from, do you have
21:16
I'm because I'm asked quite
21:18
a frequently and like for me?
21:22
I have no vested interests necessarily
21:24
in convincing anybody to
21:26
do anything his a smaller than what I'm
21:29
super interested in doing are mostly
21:32
because I found that for myself.
21:35
None. Of the big changes
21:37
that I made becoming sober
21:39
and actually getting to a place
21:41
where, ah, where I mattered
21:44
enough to myself to want to have a long
21:46
term. Future and to be healthy and to
21:48
just move through the universe,
21:51
or that the topography of
21:53
where I live with were more freely than
21:55
could at five hundred and. Fifty pounds, right
21:57
so. It didn't come.
22:00
From people telling
22:02
me they were concerned or people
22:04
telling me that they want me to have
22:07
a. healthier lifestyle healthier could just didn't
22:11
But I do think that are being
22:13
around people of who were
22:15
more interested in these things and surrounding
22:18
myself, but you have any.
22:21
Things more parents
22:23
of children or a
22:25
spouses or brothers and sisters
22:27
that kind of you
22:29
utilize the helped out we say, like
22:31
this is year when you're ready for
22:33
it. So good for baby
22:36
question, am?
22:38
We've we've been on situations preserve
22:40
our parents come along and in the suggested
22:43
children's. Are you eating
22:45
over to come a friend's encourage
22:47
people to the program and, all
22:49
say It's
22:51
never works as well and a
22:53
do believe. The person
22:56
has to come from place where they're ready for change
22:58
their am and sally sometimes
23:00
that means the have to hit rock bottom before the collision walk
23:03
this is just not working. That
23:05
idea to get them to place
23:07
where they really want to change. I
23:10
can be challenge and. Then. Famed
23:12
for us you the older someone gets
23:14
his maturity, the comes along with that and the religious
23:16
has no life at an elite way
23:18
to live their life but, sorry.
23:20
The younger someone as the more susceptible dar
23:22
to culture and damn the
23:24
that mindset and listed on tick tock clock and
23:26
these beautiful people and, the
23:29
youngest think it's. More times and to get into
23:31
place was reactions you want to commit to
23:33
a recovery. program for friends
23:35
and family them
23:37
we do. The
23:39
ng depressing users to educate them and
23:42
let them know that it's not really their fault
23:44
and expand hide accepts home
23:47
the culture and dieting and set
23:49
you free to cause he said affects the can lead to this
23:51
so not too harsh know and.
23:54
read me the best thing that can be as just to
23:56
be support of voice of support
23:58
of this them to chat know To.
24:00
Over watching too much you're forced to do anything
24:02
but just to know that if you to lean back
24:04
and them facts to support their I'm,
24:08
but also said that. Think the journey does really
24:10
began from deep time choice for someone
24:12
who he makes the decision they want to change
24:15
and, I think that's what starts, yeah,
24:17
that's. My that's my intuition also
24:19
and that was. also that's how
24:21
i've seen it happen
24:23
The A is many times as I have seen
24:26
it happen and that's how experienced
24:28
it and and, I've had
24:30
you know as well liked it so hadn't started
24:32
you progress from the been shooting to
24:35
get not. insist well,
24:38
you know, think the binge eating really
24:40
was. The kind
24:42
of something I. Develop
24:46
doing because food was restricted
24:48
from me at such a young age. Then.
24:51
That I would just try,
24:54
to. sneak food
24:57
as quickly as possible he
24:59
Out of sight of adults, great
25:02
started when was five, so they
25:04
started telling me at my parents
25:06
and Greg first, my grandparents in the my parents.
25:09
That five like. You're overweight,
25:12
you now can't eat as much
25:14
as you want, and so they would portion me food,
25:16
and it was always like, will now want
25:18
more than they're so. When they'd
25:20
be out of sight, would just cram as much into
25:23
my mouth and swallow it, you know, practically
25:25
not even chewing, you know, swallowing
25:27
all bites of food.
25:31
And so that just became my habits to them when
25:33
I. When I lived
25:35
for twenty years doing that and
25:37
then suddenly was on my own, it was
25:40
like, oh, now can just go and
25:42
buy all this food and sit and eat
25:44
it and like numbers he can tell me when we can stop
25:46
this, yes, I'm. Though.
25:50
When got to a place where
25:53
eyes on my own wanted
25:55
change. This was not
25:58
where I started working, right it will. Not
26:00
at habits and behaviors, it
26:02
was at, oh, I'm x
26:05
amount of pounds I was five hung over five
26:07
hundred pounds and just need to lose weight.
26:10
And I. They took many
26:13
swings of what you were talking about,
26:15
where am now restricting
26:17
food for so long that
26:19
when come out of it. I'm.
26:24
Of out of control getting back
26:26
up, you know, never went back to five
26:28
hundred pounds, but the from like.
26:31
The three hundred to four hundred and fifty
26:33
pounds made that. crossed
26:36
that shazam and went back like
26:39
five times and. and
26:41
it was always that pattern like our
26:43
restrict food very severely and
26:46
then when i come out of in a minute The
26:48
into I'm they have gained weight again
26:50
and go like how the fuck did I get to this
26:52
place again? Then.
26:55
They become cause of the idea is if you go on
26:58
a diet eventually come forth
27:00
the diet and then what happens then right
27:02
at the end of season I've never
27:04
I had was never thinking
27:07
about then. it
27:09
was always just
27:11
Just. Need to die right, and in there was
27:13
almost like a self laggard Jason,
27:15
and like I a penance like I need
27:17
to harm myself in another way I'm harming
27:20
myself. By overeating and now
27:22
need to suffer and needs to be are,
27:24
you know like this I'm really
27:27
hard painful thing
27:29
that I'm doing to myself because I'm bad
27:31
you. Know that was up. to it's
27:33
also stupid on
27:37
When I started going like, "wait a second,
27:39
I can lose weight like it's really"
27:42
It's. Not that hard to lose way, it's
27:44
like it's a month of low
27:47
energy, month's of being
27:49
cold and almost blacking out when I stand
27:51
up like can do that. Have done that thirty
27:53
times now, like know can do that,
27:55
gets harder and harder to confront
27:58
starting something like that, but can do. And
28:00
then just was. Really trying
28:03
to go over. How do keep
28:05
ending up needing to do this again?
28:08
Like what is it and it was really
28:10
just my habits and behaviors. Around
28:12
food, the majority of the time.
28:15
And so it was like, oh, don't actually
28:17
need to. Diet in
28:20
the restrictive sense as much as
28:22
do need to focus on what diet
28:24
in this sense of what just the stuff you eat.
28:28
For for the rest of my life like, how do that
28:31
and? Then there was a period of time
28:33
where I just thought like, oh, I'm allergic to carbohydrates,
28:36
grey, and so if just
28:38
decide on never eat carbohydrates again,
28:40
this was saw that didn't solve it. It
28:43
was really more getting down into the nitty
28:45
gritty of, like, what is my body
28:47
need? For you
28:49
and what am putting into it and what do
28:52
want from my body and how to achieve
28:54
all these things and then? When
28:56
got to a point where it was like I'm
28:58
now it, oh wait, I am would have happily
29:01
be at forever. How
29:03
do I maintain this and so looking at me
29:05
and said having to sit during this
29:07
is a balanced meal? I'm
29:09
gonna eat the slowly and I'm going to try
29:12
to quiet all the madness
29:14
in my mind and pay attention
29:17
to what my body's telling me and.
29:19
i still The to
29:21
quickly, most of the time, and I still
29:23
just like you know, make my food
29:26
and get it into me and I'm not.
29:27
Hyper focused on flavor and pleasure
29:30
out of food, but for the times
29:32
where I'm sitting down with people.
29:34
I want to, wanna try to pay attention
29:36
to my body as much as possible and am
29:39
much better now. Waking
29:41
up feeling hung over from food
29:44
and being able to recognize it and
29:46
also. Because exercise
29:48
so much am. More, more
29:50
adept at seeing, like,
29:53
for me. By carbohydrates
29:55
before or after a workout, I
29:57
feel great feel you.
30:00
No wonderful, have more energy and the gym.
30:02
The quite a big you.
30:05
know plate of pasta The
30:07
middle of the afternoon and then sat
30:10
and watched T. V. I would probably fall asleep.
30:12
And so knowing that.
30:15
It's like okay well I'd never will
30:17
do that the past either comes after
30:19
a workout or it's very small,
30:22
you know what I mean it's a small amount of past
30:24
or small amount of potatoes or race or
30:26
whatever my carb is that they are bred
30:28
but. if it's gonna be gonna lot it's
30:31
gonna be before after work and then on days
30:33
where i don't exercise I
30:35
get more fat and less carbs and feel
30:37
great that they too you know so it's
30:40
just been a lot of trial and error I.
30:43
would very much agree with that
30:45
The point is, your body's always communicate machine,
30:48
and most important lesson is just a lesson to
30:50
the body, don't listen to their hunger to
30:52
problem, the wanna get rid of it is and family their
30:54
diet. Then we always
30:57
think like Benz bench craven
30:59
is your way of. The body trying
31:01
to communicate with you be hunger ignore
31:04
that was started to scream at me as he
31:06
only eats and grab your attention and it needs
31:08
this. The same to
31:10
do we do not know your pet attention to your body
31:12
and that's giving you the knowledge and wisdom
31:14
to know exactly what to work
31:16
for you moving forward that's grip, see
31:18
I will say.
31:21
You know being a sober guy and I'm
31:24
trying to be as much of real us to
31:26
spot one having relaxed
31:28
many years ago and.
31:31
and really doing battle with drugs
31:33
and alcohol and really also doing battle
31:35
with sued for an even longer period of time
31:38
for being completely frank
31:40
I am of the mindset
31:42
light and still notices these
31:45
inclinations, are always spill right
31:47
there you not a mean like. and in
31:49
my head they're definitely
31:52
nights like not so much when i'm
31:54
Around my wife and kids, but I travel for
31:56
work and like if there's. You
31:59
know, like. Make pizza or something
32:01
like that and I'm alone and is
32:03
like that urge is still there
32:05
to harm myself with food
32:07
don't have the urge, obviously. Isn't
32:10
harm yourself with food it's like?
32:12
You'll feel better if you eat all that
32:15
right now in you're alone, nobody's watching
32:17
and you're lonely, and this could make
32:19
you feel good you've had a hard to, you know what I mean like
32:21
that's all still exists. think
32:24
it with diligence and. The
32:27
practice of life I've been able
32:29
to kind of beat that
32:31
more than a beats me in the
32:33
last handful of years. That
32:36
makes sense of your body. Knows
32:40
the quickest sex.
32:42
Two of you in a situation was uncomfortable
32:45
your. body goes you know or sexist pretty handily
32:47
and It knows that alcohol
32:50
dog's foods can numb.
32:53
Your emotions and give you a time out in break.
32:56
Soda and that's where the screams do come from
32:58
am, but there is way of kind of like. We
33:01
try to teach not program anyways, the get spear
33:03
square. No the resilience
33:06
to be little bit more comfortable
33:09
with fill an uncomfortable so make sense
33:11
sure and to be more accepting
33:13
what's your emotions do the self compassion
33:16
and usual kind of the high end concepts and takes
33:18
while to get there but you. know
33:20
often button Often
33:22
believe the people are harsh themselves,
33:24
just for feel no way. Oh.
33:26
My God I'm feeling the need to do this affinity
33:29
for cigarette or drink or food whatever it is and,
33:32
then just because this felt
33:34
this need the feel the need. To beat themselves
33:36
up for even seen that wider, that's why
33:38
am I feel ness what's wrong with me and
33:41
then or standard Dublin dying make themselves
33:43
be worse than the? Get into a spiral that normal
33:45
person when thanked us weights and must be
33:47
some freaks and just gets worse and worse
33:49
of Bentley the an update the and would ever. Need
33:52
to date but there is. you
33:54
know the idea that would be felicitous
33:56
films thoughts into sports we don't really have
33:58
super control over them An agreeable
34:00
to step back just little bit just
34:02
to give all about space and good at is what it has its
34:05
here night probably won't be year and half
34:07
an hour and are ya for just that it's set
34:09
in let it go with emotion think.
34:11
i can help as a sort of mindset mainframe
34:13
to not get too caught up The
34:16
or whatever your experience and. Hum.
34:19
That that's a median with the I know
34:22
love that and that's. Basically,
34:24
what kept me sober for a long
34:26
time and it was, it was
34:29
like. This, this
34:31
is moment, you know, and and, like,
34:33
in a, they said, beta time take it day
34:35
at time and like I think that's super powerful
34:38
and think it can be.
34:40
"I do really well with the
34:42
schedule, I like a lot of
34:44
structure, I seem to eat,
34:46
eat and be successful what
34:49
my diet when eat the same thing
34:51
day in day as but, you know, what happens
34:53
when do, that's get my
34:56
crew nutrient deficiencies
34:58
speak" My diet is a varied.
35:01
And you know what the easiest solution for
35:03
that is supplementing with vitamins
35:06
except I don't like handfuls
35:09
of tablets don't like guessing
35:11
do need a little more that I'm little less of
35:13
this I don't really know what
35:15
the hell to take and. so
35:18
i take my hands full of vitamins
35:20
and you know what happens get a terrible stomach
35:22
ache and my urine turns fluorescent
35:24
orange and i swear i'm never
35:27
doing anything that stupid again
35:30
And then my energy starts
35:32
to go down and I don't feel
35:35
great.
35:36
Because I'm back to being micro
35:39
nutrient efficient, will
35:41
athletic green solves all
35:43
of this? With it's delicious
35:45
once a day drink. Eg
35:48

five high quality vitamins,
35:53
minerals, whole food source

38:16
in the structure program but ways to do not people
38:18
often to experience things are just continually
38:21
to. get back to this idea simplicity
38:24
to some the tips would give There
38:26
are some funny, these are the simplest things in the world,
38:28
but eponymous just give a ten minutes.
38:31
Do I just know give it's immense your science
38:33
and research proves that ten minutes the Korean
38:35
can the doran a lot and?
38:38
you're not send yourself no i cannot do
38:40
that but just scene where you gonna
38:42
be another ten minutes time can be can great
38:44
relief for people and that after those
38:46
ten minutes make themselves another
38:48
ten minutes more In
38:51
terms of slim, more. confident
38:53
the make the most of the with the feelings
38:56
another strategy spray simple is
38:59
to read your discomfort from a
39:01
scale of one to ten so. tan
39:03
been the most uncomfortable thing in the world like the broken
39:05
your leg or given birth and job
39:07
in nothin and often you find me actually
39:10
read whatever your film on scale it's not
39:12
in terms of just how your body's still not your mind
39:15
Not usually that bad, it's just
39:17
that maybe get out of bed in the cold morning
39:19
or something like that strike or charged with something
39:21
they go, you actually.
39:23
When? Your imagination is in get caught up on
39:25
it and your worries me concerned you thought and
39:27
step back button just seen it as a
39:29
physical sensation your body craven
39:32
sometimes sometimes. It is from built saw it and
39:34
it's not as bad as think it is, and again
39:36
this is just always the give distance and space
39:38
from that civil get so. Caught up in. Yeah,
39:41
I like that, also like when you talk
39:43
about it's going to be uncomfortable. also
39:46
started to, like, really put life in perspective
39:49
in that way and realizing
39:52
just how uncomfortable was
39:54
in literal terms at the weight
39:56
was that, and while was eating
39:58
the way was eating. Twenty years ago.
40:01
That discomfort. kept
40:04
trading for this immediate
40:06
comfort of food and,
40:09
wine i When I get to today
40:11
and like any discomfort I'm trading
40:14
for the amount that I'm actually
40:16
more comfortable, it pales
40:18
in comparison so. I'm so
40:21
much less uncomfortable
40:23
today in. a slightly different
40:25
way but But
40:27
I'm so much more comfortable in general
40:30
terms that it's like because,
40:32
there was never point where I was eating away
40:34
was that was just always comfortable
40:36
right it was this numbing of fact
40:38
that had the sense of
40:41
comfort to me. but For
40:43
the most part, was dramatically
40:45
more uncomfortable. Then am
40:48
today and so now those
40:50
moments of discomfort where it's like. You
40:53
know, there's a McDonald's not far from my house,
40:55
I passed it all the time. Then
40:58
like. can't lie and say
41:00
never wanna go in there. One
41:02
are going there sometimes and want to eat, you
41:04
know? For big macs and
41:06
a gigantic order of fries.
41:10
Then. The the moment
41:12
that I'm. weighing life
41:14
in going, it's uncomfortable to not do
41:16
that. This is so much smaller
41:18
than it is like, will know if I do
41:20
that.
41:21
Wow. My going to feel afterwards that discomfort's
41:24
actually going to be greater than this discomfort,
41:26
what's more uncomfortable the fillon
41:29
afterwards of do not are not
41:31
going at night and then? Enjoying feel better
41:33
after his I do not sure you're
41:35
gonna is better see don't and.
41:38
that's the only we didn't get that real
41:40
knowledge is five would give sonic
41:42
give him to strengthen that relationship with
41:44
your body during tune with your body your know
41:46
responding to it and thus wisdom
41:49
that and site that's knowledge that's your body's
41:51
telling you exactly look You may
41:53
want that is a minor craven, but small trust
41:55
me you won't.
41:56
Yeah, yeah, no nothing that really helps
41:59
a A it's. It's. It's it's a radical
42:01
perspective to shift, but it is
42:03
something that when you're inside
42:05
of it when you're
42:07
inside of binge eating or overeating
42:10
or whatever it is. Being morbidly
42:12
obese or this again, I'm
42:14
all of this is framed through my experience
42:16
right I'm not speaking objectively
42:18
for adding when I don't know what everybody's feeling, but
42:21
know. That. Hi. Wouldn't?
42:24
Then this discomfort,
42:26
this idea was like, "Nope this is normal
42:29
and will feel better if do that
42:31
and everything else just sucks
42:33
for the most part and" So
42:35
having gotten that food out of my system,
42:37
it really is that didn't take long to
42:40
recognize, you know. The even from
42:42
when was. One
42:44
of the first like dies I did, which was
42:46
usually cork we restrictive diet.
42:49
When I came
42:52
out of it, would have these raising
42:54
reactions to certain flu types like
42:56
where I'd like. Suddenly. Start
42:59
blinking in my eyes would get a
43:02
burglary right just from
43:04
eating something, and it was so
43:06
weird, but, and even then I
43:08
didn't go, shouldn't eat that anymore if. It's
43:10
causing this reaction, you know what mean,
43:12
it took me a long time to go like
43:15
that stuff doesn't agree with me.
43:17
What? You'll just did the knowledge of key
43:19
in the last twenty years mean the nineties Zola,
43:21
but notify you know what I mean
43:23
and the last forever I'm is June and there's. Such
43:25
a big side effects from that you need, your turns
43:27
out the body pretty much does need some fat to
43:29
function, it absolutely needs
43:32
fat half that by the way, and.
43:34
Then we got never have new carbs right
43:36
and some of these do you work for some
43:39
people with lot of people and this is what I'd like
43:41
to. Stress and Podcast is for lot of people going
43:43
to have mastered the.
43:44
Negative side effects from his could just doesn't work
43:46
for their body type. It's
43:48
really good to reiterate that because you gotta
43:51
let people know it's not their fault, not their problem
43:53
stop blaming themselves at factual diet
43:56
it's what you're doing this the action
43:58
so he. my i think that Important
44:00
good people come those the lost all hope. Birth
44:03
be using the last chance saloon of connect
44:05
with less work because I don't know what else is gonna
44:07
work. We're
44:10
like, yes, there's still hope you
44:12
know, mean, and you just have the dancing is
44:14
not you, it's these actions
44:16
you're taken this, just not working for you by magazine
44:19
or simple programs just about. What
44:21
do you fat and carbs for each me, suppose that
44:23
just to get into up this about the man
44:25
we can move forward? The
44:28
idea of silly book with as good as encouraging
44:30
the worst moved on, do believe these, the
44:33
noise improved. them and
44:35
the deaths of gotten. think that
44:37
more responsible and Idling
44:41
would hope.
44:42
But in reason a yeah coming from our
44:44
way they're still always was
44:46
new fad you know where it becomes
44:49
like this one this one will be the one
44:51
that works the and or even just
44:53
this one this one definitely the brave you
44:55
just stop eating see Doyle's
44:58
that's. it that's all you have to do no
45:00
more see royals that's the only problem
45:03
you can eat as much of
45:05
everything else is you want and you can
45:07
binge eat as long as there's no see royals
45:09
and it's like Smart.
45:12
That. The thing or like things
45:14
were big and it's like just the if you
45:16
just saved your cucumber skin off
45:18
right and take the pits out right like
45:20
as long as you're. Only eating the meat
45:22
of the cucumber you'll be fine,
45:25
you know, and you gotta take the skin
45:27
off your peppers and it's like guys.
45:29
The or I really see so many innovations
45:32
of these diets, words like. think
45:34
they prey on people, you know, because. I'm.
45:37
Sure, may not not, that's not the truth it's
45:40
had dumped easier to
45:42
pick a food and say that food
45:44
is the root cause of all my problems
45:46
and I'm never going. To have to do any self
45:48
examination and on self examination
45:50
is really hard, right, changing
45:53
habits that you've had for your whole life
45:55
that's really real work.
45:58
So for.
46:00
You're. Like there's an appeal to you
46:02
people don't want see, I guess am
46:04
talking about since your body and respondents
46:06
that it's not black and white as nuclear
46:08
answer and you. Will make mistakes you've been a mess
46:10
up and then you'll learn from as you going on with,
46:13
smirk and it's much easier
46:15
sometimes could just tell me what it. Needs to
46:17
give me that what I need to follow any, to have
46:20
to think and off to analyze, and
46:22
it just takes all that pressure off, off course,
46:24
the big. "Thing is not sustainable soon, soon
46:26
would think the person you are when you go on a diet,
46:29
decided that North and you motivated
46:31
New York said new courage to" This new thing, but
46:33
people don't relate to not the same person there
46:36
that they might be in two weeks time you know after
46:38
we accept that work stress died
46:41
Hired and it just haven't all state
46:44
and they're not their best selves. That's
46:46
when all that the wonder that was forget about the dad
46:48
don't care and the break the voters in the spirals
46:51
on which to really need something.
46:53
It works when you're off days the something
46:56
that you're on my worst situation
46:58
I can still follow this and.
47:00
i'll be ok
47:01
That's what really needs to be sustainable,
47:03
yeah, and I'm really liking appreciate
47:06
what you're talking about as getting some. Some
47:09
time to allow stuff to cool
47:11
outright without being super restrictive
47:14
because. Then I think that's
47:16
when you can start to do that work, great
47:18
start to figure these things out, but if you just.
47:21
You. Just start on something that's
47:23
really hard or the whole time
47:26
you're so you're in this deprivation
47:28
zone right off, yeah, it's going to be
47:30
hard to think about anything else because. You're like
47:32
I don't know if feel good I'm hungry
47:35
or you know don't know if feel good at all
47:37
want to do is eat a bunch of. Potato chips,
47:39
but instead I'm eating only chicken breasts
47:41
right so I feel like to be
47:44
hungry, is not a nice villain,
47:46
right as just not I mean if deprived
47:49
is candice. Insecurity for them.
47:51
And you, you can deal with the for a better off
47:53
while it does get annoying and. The
47:55
facts you are, you think you make bad choices when you're
47:57
hungry. Soon our program back. We
48:00
send his mean you don't want people that got home,
48:02
we want them to become friends with the hunger to
48:04
really start to understand that to find
48:06
nitty gritty of like the. Lana my
48:09
overly sat at too much when am I too
48:11
hungry and. then
48:13
i guess think honestly believe hunger And
48:16
I'm on believable to
48:18
abuse evolved over millions of years
48:20
of can have forgotten about and ignored and.
48:23
it's something that you can get better understand
48:26
and am if you're very mindful
48:28
of it you get sick a skill you
48:30
know like are under way as can
48:32
be can fantastic guide to help you give confidence
48:35
to trust your hunger to navigate through this
48:38
court and always more complicated The
48:40
landscape that we live in and,
48:42
an iq of course not like nice to be thousand
48:45
years ago or hunter gatherers was much more simpler
48:47
and it is more complicated know would you have mcdonald's everywhere
48:50
in fast food everywhere But like you
48:52
said there is solutions and if you're
48:54
listening to your body your. body will
48:56
tell you after you eat those foods what really
48:58
works fast and if you're really care
49:00
about making yourself finger best Then.
49:03
You just naturally will move away from those choices
49:05
me my favorite and again, but ideally
49:07
we're moved towards makes you feel your
49:09
best to avoid to speed hangovers sci
49:12
fi gates. Since good, different good in
49:14
your body wants to see good, it's as simple
49:16
as that, but he is yeah enough to get yourself
49:18
now, please don't.
49:19
I at the hunger is a weird one
49:21
to for me because they're I
49:24
think spent. So.
49:26
Long eating in such oh
49:28
ways that were harmful to my body
49:30
that, like the six use of hunger,
49:33
don't even always make sense to me, I cannot
49:35
always recognize them, you. Know there's
49:37
a point of hunger where it's like in your stomach
49:40
in your stomach is saying I
49:42
need something here and then there's
49:44
other things with hunger where it's like.
49:47
I don't have a lot of energy or I'm irritable,
49:50
you know, and these things like sometimes I'll get
49:52
super irritable, and I'll realize I missed
49:54
the meal and didn't even
49:56
have those cues, but now I'm like
49:58
snapping up my kid.
50:00
And why am I doing the oh my God I'm hungry,
50:03
you know what mean like? The even those
50:05
things are still muddied for me today
50:08
where I'm like. Have
50:10
to be on and a little bit more I'm paying
50:12
little bit more attention and.
50:15
It is so odd and I think there are
50:18
many. unintended consequences
50:20
unintended modernity where you go like The,
50:23
you know, if there's an abundance of
50:25
cheese. Calories. Nobody's
50:27
gonna starve to death orbs much
50:30
fewer people are gonna starve to death, and it's like,
50:32
yeah, okay? Then what happens
50:34
if we start? Using
50:36
those cheap calories and a harmful
50:38
way right and then get
50:40
so disconnected from.
50:43
Then. "An
50:46
of is that the vast amount of times
50:48
that I bought time that our bodies
50:50
genetically kind of instilled
50:53
these hunger to use right like you
50:56
gotta eat because food" Is scarce
50:58
and hard to get, so you come across the
51:00
Barry bush, eat as many berries as you can
51:02
take berries back to your tribe, everyone eat
51:05
these berries even if. You just, you
51:07
know, slaughtered a goat and filled up on
51:09
goat, your body's going to make room for the berries,
51:11
but now. When there's convenience
51:14
store at the end of your block? In
51:16
your body saying, "Hey, there's berries in there"
51:19
Go eat all of whom you gotta kind of beat
51:21
that and go like know I don't need those right
51:23
now.
51:24
Sure sure that it's much more complicated
51:26
and member foods have been designed to be more see
51:29
want more of them am. sir
51:31
engineered to be The spark
51:34
off those big hobby chemicals
51:36
that makes us when eat more food, so there's
51:38
more complicated, so we need to
51:40
advance or tools to do with us
51:42
so we can we can navigate through it. The
51:45
Greer one. Great,
51:47
let alone to be always use am. From
51:50
the dad was that was the. The
51:53
gotten him to the can actually but. at
51:55
some at comeback numbers caught the
51:57
guy sees the line i can have it if it wanted
52:00
What do I really feel like it? That
52:02
cost and that's was recourse. can
52:04
have would if wanted but do you really feel like it
52:06
and that's such a simple length I love simple but?
52:09
has so much and it is the realization you can have
52:11
whatever you want you know not deprive yourself
52:14
but do you really feel like it and
52:16
often that's what as me combat your body really
52:18
for like and if so if also enjoy
52:21
Them and. even when your joints with
52:23
here's another one that people don't respect a good
52:25
response gourmet restaurants so the by themselves
52:27
for to every once and you may pay attention
52:29
to the first bite or two but then after that
52:32
The weight shot and up and attention and,
52:34
sure the first slice of pizza always tastes good
52:36
but The seventh slice of pizza
52:39
gonna taste the same as the first, no sense,
52:41
no chance you gotta get through quick
52:43
where you're not going to ease the suffering of essays
52:46
and more. If.
52:48
You let yourself haven't whenever you want to do what I don't
52:51
have to have this seven slice night
52:53
because in how later when I'm hungry, litter
52:55
and I'll be enjoy more. litter and,
52:58
that's where you have to like that there is a
53:00
mindset tour Trixie have to, install
53:03
the go like we have food everywhere it's. abundant
53:06
and it's easy to take advantage of it and
53:09
That you've gotta know you've gotta set the sort
53:11
of idea that if you really feel like
53:14
it and often defined will let you know it's
53:16
simple as that impacts the body thing Kitchen
53:18
Party says it makes me not.
53:20
discuss cardboard read my you know the mean i'm not
53:22
testament that's the same Don't
53:24
need it looking at the same Somalia, say
53:26
we'll see what people wonder in the middle of binge
53:28
episode like you said, benching is all but not
53:30
thinking and tonight" The
53:33
mountains or checks do. Tonight
53:35
and one of the tools we use is called "Things"
53:37
commentary again, really simple, and
53:39
all you do you just talk at light. What
53:42
you're actually do, so I'm open up
53:44
pack this, I am pretty much my most
53:46
and new set of just. Force
53:48
in your mind to be really mindful of the whole
53:50
experience and. Find
53:53
than that because you're actually they
53:55
are present the moment it's nowhere near
53:57
as fun if my horn years enjoyable
53:59
and. you You really think this is not really
54:02
like Adam do this to get my mind away women
54:04
in this, but then start a simple if you don't
54:06
wanna be there.
54:08
Why? Are you doing I keep remain doesn't want to be
54:10
enjoys experience why you don't go
54:12
to the cinema the tonight and don't pay attention
54:14
to the movie but, for some? Reason to in
54:16
the middle of a bench episode we do tonight we're not
54:18
really being aware of the foot. so
54:20
low things like that can make you realize you
54:22
know
54:23
Maybe not what you need me, but out
54:25
what you're really prefer.
54:26
I really like that, like any of these physical,
54:29
we just talk to a gal who's who
54:32
had physical queue to
54:34
give your body and you do physical
54:36
action that kind of. Some
54:39
sets you up for something mental, but this
54:41
is great by talking through.
54:44
The forcing. yourself to
54:46
talk through something that is really
54:49
Mostly about. A being
54:52
of absence right being
54:54
kind of a in this blind.
54:58
Kind of really base the boxer's
55:01
experience of consumption
55:03
and going like no, I have a way
55:06
to make myself present
55:08
for this and thinking about it by speaking
55:11
of narrating it, that's why
55:13
I edited and it's you can do this.
55:16
Non judgmental as possible not there
55:18
to pick in yourself cook yourself just
55:20
observe just to take a what actually
55:23
is gone on could move up it
55:25
will produce for years never really observe
55:28
and. in dust as square start just
55:30
observe and or in the mid after to think that
55:32
think really That really valuable
55:35
expensive that can be real joy. them
55:38
and as even not, just starting point", said.
55:41
We can that connection we can the desire
55:43
so even. Like the museum,
55:45
people actually do start band as well, people think the have
55:47
to finish bench whatever is there
55:49
has not forget it all, even the
55:51
idea, of course you don't have to. The
55:54
consume at all he did can be point. The
55:57
country's the halfway point, perhaps you go take breather
55:59
and see. That's enough.
56:01
The treatment in that is a nice
56:03
way to patch produce intensity which
56:05
is how much you're eating and. then he
56:07
can gradually dwindled i'm The
56:10
smaller and smaller amounts. That's amazing,
56:12
yeah, I did as
56:15
you were saying that was like, oh yeah, totally
56:17
narrate mine. In a super
56:19
judgmental way and then almost. Be
56:22
able to continue doing it simply because
56:24
I was I'm a piece
56:26
of shit and so in, but I think
56:28
he think you do have to, think
56:31
that the way to do that is to be
56:33
non judgmental and it's think
56:36
that could. Drop me out of
56:38
it and then the idea about. Being
56:41
okay to not finish every this was another
56:43
thing was going to bring up because there's so much.
56:46
The day with the idea of. Like
56:48
waste like waste seems bad,
56:51
but is just a rationalization for
56:53
consuming more right because I don't want
56:55
to waste stuff where. We
56:57
just know that a massive
56:59
amount of food is wasted
57:02
in our country's anyways right there is lot
57:05
of waste and so late one.
57:07
of my rationalizations was always
57:09
like why like don't want to waste and he thinks
57:11
i'm gonna consume all of it minutes you
57:14
know even or consume what my kids didn't
57:16
consume right
57:19
Yeah cool don't clean the plate and,
57:21
l your front seat and of yeah we grew
57:23
up with as well and it's very common in it that
57:26
that's such a small sounds like small thing.
57:29
this idea for not or yeah putting new paper again
57:32
I mean it's something you can just do as a habit for
57:34
years without ever second guessing at an angle do,
57:37
really have to need to. and of course
57:39
then the gulf kicks and wasting food
57:43
But in way you know your soon as he dined the sankor
57:45
Ben wherever your trash compactor am.
57:49
I understand just went down yourself and that's not
57:51
a waste because you're eating it and
57:53
are huge, are you seeing yourself as wastebasket,
57:56
wisp and to throw the fit in that's another way of thinking
57:58
about it, right? Or?
58:00
The African lapointe are you getting anything
58:02
useful out of those calories like
58:04
are they helping you?
58:07
Would you do you even at against
58:09
super simple text as always is?
58:12
like
58:13
I speed bump if you're on your plate and
58:15
you can half your plate the need, hoffman just
58:17
put the knife and fork time and have a breeder
58:20
for two, three minutes, just talk to your family.
58:22
It up for walk around and then you give them your
58:24
chance for your body to see how you really feel. Then
58:27
you go do what I'm still hungry when compared to the
58:29
fifth or maybe your phone, and then just don't
58:31
give yourself permission to set it aside
58:34
and funny, typical French and have the next day.
58:36
And but these little small
58:38
strategies can all Arab truly help
58:41
to, yeah. The
58:43
back and control and I collect the always back
58:45
to the body back to be able to listen to you
58:47
by really nice, yeah, I've
58:49
talked to my wife and do like
58:52
that you are.
58:54
Trying to put the agency on a
58:56
give people agency and autonomy
58:59
over themselves and tools and, and I
59:01
think that is super useful, have said
59:03
to my wife is, you know, over like holidays,
59:05
Christmas or Thanksgiving, we
59:07
have here with just saw back what needs.
59:10
Like. A five had
59:12
a plate of food and you see me on my second
59:15
or third play, please just take it away
59:17
from me and six or faceted times
59:19
where I'm sitting. There and all
59:21
of sudden, my plate just cause what and is gone,
59:24
and I look at her and then there's
59:26
maybe a spark of like what
59:29
the hell. Are and then I go off think
59:31
the odds he's taking this was nine years
59:33
and then I'm good you know that's.
59:36
not me being responsible for myself
59:38
but like i also think like it's
59:40
useful to have people in your team
59:43
your know
59:45
So I mean, at it foods
59:47
complicated, am you know
59:49
it's not just? Calories
59:52
in calories, it's not just for energy,
59:54
just as culture, it's it's.
59:57
The no table a family is Thanksgiving.
