Six Years of Food Freedom: How I Overcame Binge Eating (and How You Can Too)

Erin Hart, a registered nurse and health coach, shares her six-year journey with a real food lifestyle, including losing 125 pounds, overcoming lifelong binge eating, and living more than two years binge-free. She explains how emotional eating and stress led to class III morbid obesity and describes binge eating as feeling out of control, often triggered by stress. Erin recounts how structured boundaries (sugar/flour-free, weighed/measured meals, no snacking) initially stopped binging, but maintenance, business stress, and nervous system dysregulation brought urges back. Tools that helped included Brain Over Binge concepts, accountability, adding enough food in maintenance, conservative calorie reduction with maintenance breaks, nervous system regulation (window of tolerance), menopause treatment including HRT, a temporary GLP-1 (tirzepatide) bridge, and addressing ADD with medication. She emphasizes progress over perfection, compassionate curiosity, connection, and course-correcting at the next meal.
