EPISODE 122: She Lost 50 Lbs and Started Binge Eating. Will a GLP-1 Help?


Listen Later

A woman on Reddit is down 50 pounds, going through a brutal breakup, and spiraling into emotional binge eating. She wants to know if GLP-1s will fix it.

Coach Steph and I give her an honest, judgment-free answer and it's probably not what she's expecting.

Here's what we get into:

  • Why emotional eating and binge eating aren't two separate problems (and what's actually driving the behavior)
  • What GLP-1s actually do and why they're the wrong tool for this specific situation
  • Why "time heals all wounds" is a lie your nervous system doesn't believe
  • The real reason food becomes your go-to during heartbreak, grief, and life upheaval
  • What emotional regulation actually looks like and the skill set that changes everything

This episode isn't about shaming anyone for reaching for a quick fix. It's about understanding why the quick fix won't work and what will.

If you've ever found yourself eating when you're not even hungry, this one's for you.
