Summer vacation with binge eating sucks

Eating disorders don't take a summer vacation which means that a long summer break can be challenging for all people struggling with eating disorders.

Travel used to be a total train wreck for me. I was trapped in a pattern of restricting and binging. I would binge eat in secret whenever I felt stressed or deprived in any way. During my struggles with BED (Binge Eating Disorder), I was really fed up with feeling 'frumpy and grumpy' every summer. I hated feeling so insecure every holiday when I should really be having the time of my life, during the best season of the year.

Back then all I had was a burning desire to have a peaceful holiday without worrying and obsessing about food.

Today my summer holidays look so different! In June, my boyfriend and I took a vacation to Crete. We had the best time ever. No food anxiety. No swinging from all to nothing, from restriction to bingeing, from bad to good. I didn’t worry about overeating. I enjoyed my food and listened to my body. Binge eating recovery turned me into a person who can enjoy their summer holidays without being constantly worried about food. I explode with gratitude for my past self who was able to combat my eating disorder voice.

In today’s podcast episode, I’m comparing what summer vacations looked like for me when I had an eating disorder and what summer holidays look like right now. I’m sharing this with you to show you how life can change in a few years when you stop binge eating and learn how to eat intuitively.

With the summer vacation not far away, this episode is a must-listen!
