![Recovery Feast Eating [Podcast]](https://tabithafarrar.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Recovery-feast-eating.jpg)
Saying goodbye to 2017, and looking back over the year and what I have learned. In this podcast I talk about what I call recovery “feast” eating, which is more commonly referred to as “binge” eating. Looking at eating a lot of food as a highly appropriate response to restriction.
- Why it is normal and appropriate to eat a lot of food when you are in recovery from anorexia
- Why restriciton makes us desire to eat large amounts of food
- The problem with psychoanalysing eating — especially recovery eating!

Hi Tabitha, while listening to this podcast a question came to me. I understand that we absolutely need air, water and food to live and that without any of these we will die, how can we/I fight against the voice that tells me, “well you are eating food, maybe not very much, but you are eating some so therefore you won’t die”?
Listening to that voice hasn’t got you health and happiness. You need to understand that just because you have a thought, it doesn’t mean that thought is true or valid or correct.
Amanda,
You need to assess what your goal is. Do you want to merely “not die,” or is your goal to live and thrive? What’s the point of eating just enough to exist in constant survival mode? What is your intention in following this path?
