Let’s talk about the restrict-binge cycle.
If there was one nutrition concept that I wish all people understood, it would be…
Restriction leads to binging.
If that doesn’t resonate, try any of these on for size…
- Dieting leads to loss of control eating.
- The more we ignore our hunger, the greater the chances we’ll eat past the point of comfort later on.
- The more rules we place around what, when and how much we are going to eat, the more likely we’ll break those rules.
- When we don’t eat enough, our bodies drives us towards food.
These are all variations of the restrict-binge cycle.
