This episode is a review of "The Hunger Habit" by Judson Brewer, MD, PhD. Is this a book that can help people who struggle with binge eating and disordered eating? Will Sarah and Stef come to the same conclusions about the book? Most importantly, will Stef remember her note-to-self about making her points of contention calmly?
I guess you'll have to tune in to find out!

Apologies everyone! The recording quality wasn't great on this one! We tried a new recording platform, which we WILL NOT be using again.
You don't need to apologize, Great job! ❤
I so loved your gripe, Sarah, about BED being considered as less important than Anorexia and Bulimia. I don't know the figures, but BED probably affects way more people than the other 'proper' or 'real' or 'important' eating disorders. BED affects millions, but constantly slips under the radar as the 'not really a thing' disorder. Millions of people are living in misery with this, often for decades but it still isn't seen as worthy of attention or treatment. Bravo to you for saying that.
Please review Glen Livingstons updated book Defeat your Cravings. That would be AWESOME!!!
Thank you so much for this review. I liked the tools he lays out in the book and use them daily. I did find his examples very lacking as well and the logical oversimplification was glaring. I have been on the recovery road from BED for a long time and now was dealing with habitual emotional eating and I liked his RAIN tool. It helped a lot. I agree that if I was still in the throes of BED that this book would not have been helpful. It’s suitable to people w/o an ED. The most important thing I learned is to have curiosity and I really use the noting practice. I’m so pleased you reviewed this book. I value your opinion and I agree with your conclusion.
Thank you for this conversation :) "Brain over binge" Kathren Hansen please :)
Already done! See episode 81
I like the sense of humour applied to this review haha 👍
Thank you for reviewing this from an ED perspective. I, too, would have once read this book (read them all!) and been excited by a new plan (This will be the one that works!) 😂
Now I know that blueberries are awesome but I also want the bloody gummy worms. And if I am stressed out and want to regulate myself with a whole packet, it's going to work a lot better than fruit.
36:46 This reminded me of a book I read recently called “The End of Craving” by Mark Schatzker. It was an interesting book that, similar to this one, wasn’t helpful for recovery, but he did talk about the difference between wanting and liking and how they can change our relationship with food. It had some strange takes and some not so good advice but was enjoyable overall and had some interesting history along with a few good points, I’d recommend reading it if you haven’t! This was a great episode, thank you guys❤️
Just finished the episode, sorry to add another book to your list🤣
Love your chemistry and I love your honesty! You two have helped me look at food differently which is a good thing!❤️
37:54 😂 "Ok, now I am done"
I haven't read this book, I think you made great points of view, I liked them.
I couldn't love this more. Thank you 💗
Glenn Livingston has a new and updated book called defeat your cravings that is basically just never binge again but updated. Might be better to do that book to be honest.
I think it is quite interesting what you are talking about about around 26:30, about how you think it is actually a psychological change in perspective that is producing the blueberries being preferred over the gummy worms. But do you think that purposefully changing your perspective in this manner to prefer healthier foods is bad for some reason?
Good question. The inherent value of that would depend on the person experiencing it. My trouble with it was that he was attributing it to a physiological reaction so the self awareness mattered to me. Psychologically, it’s moralizing the choice of blueberries over gummy worms, and moralizing can be problematic, and may become thwarted by the rebel response.
He’s not a psychologist he’s a psychiatrist- has an MD.
