Emotional Eating Unwrapped (Sober Eating Podcast)

In this episode of Emotional Eating Unwrapped, Alana explores why eating past full can quietly mess with your head, often more than binge eating ever did.

She explains why eating past fullness feels so destabilizing, how it slowly erodes self-trust, and why stopping doesn’t always feel settling or safe. Through real-life examples and lived insight, Alana breaks down what’s actually happening in the moments when you keep eating even though your body is already satisfied.

This conversation reframes eating past full as a protective response, not a lack of control. You’ll hear why fullness can feel exposed, why silence after eating is often the real trigger, and how food becomes a way to delay what comes next when the day finally slows down.

Rather than focusing on willpower or awareness, this episode invites you to understand the function of the behavior and why responding with curiosity instead of self-judgment is what actually changes the pattern.

TAKEAWAYS

• Eating past full often creates more self-doubt than binge eating because it feels subtle and confusing.

• Fullness can feel unsafe when food has been your main source of grounding or certainty.

• Many people keep eating not for hunger, but to delay the end of the experience.

• The silence after eating is often the real trigger — not the food itself.

• Awareness alone doesn’t stop behavior; safety and capacity do.
