Are Night Eating and Binge Eating at Night the Same Thing?
Do you wake up in the middle of the night and eat on a consistent basis? When you walk into the kitchen half-asleep, does it feel as though nothing can stop you from eating? You may suffer from night eating. Whether it’s 3 AM in California, NYC, or Florida, you' may feel as though you eat uncontrollably. In the morning you see the remnants of the eating episode and feel embarrassed or ashamed. Your kids or partner comment on it. You’re not sure how to stop. Is night eating the same as binge eating? Great question. Let’s explore it!

Healing from Bulimia, Eating Disorders and Food Restricting and a Lifetime of Dieting (No quick fixes in 2024!)
By the time they get to me, many of my California clients have decades of dieting and food restricting behind them. I did, too. I began dieting and restricting food in elementary school, and that behavior persisted for decades before I found a qualified eating disorder therapist to help me recover completely. I get it. It feels impossible. When I was in the thick of my eating disorder, if someone would have told me that I would someday think about food, eating, and body image less than 10% of the time, I would have thought they were insane. But it was true. It happened. It’s happen for hundreds of my clients. It can happen for you, too. Read on to hear how you can take the first step in 2024.
Affirmations and Advice for Disordered Eating in Florida: How to avoid using food as a Coping Mechanism.
During the holidays and other stressful times of the year, it’s easy to turn toward food and unhelpful eating behaviors. Affirmations can really help. When I first started using affirmation years ago, I felt TOTALLY cheesy saying positive messages about myself out loud. Over time, the cheesiness faded and I began believing these statements. Affirmations became something on which I relied to steer me away from disordered eating. Whether I was living in California or visiting Florida or Colorado, I would keep saying affirmations until they became the reality.
