Protein has become the buzzword of the moment, but how much of what we're hearing is grounded in science? Registered dietitian and nutrition researcher David Goldman returns to separate facts from marketing and explain what the research actually says about meeting your protein needs, building muscle, and healthy aging. And then there's this: They say you are what you eat. David's research suggests the story doesn't end there. The plant foods you eat may influence how attractive you appear to others.  Packed with practical advice and refreshing clarity, this episode will leave you better equipped to navigate nutrition headlines, tune out the hype, and make food choices based on evidence instead of trends. What we discuss: Why most people aren't at risk of protein deficiency. Why resistance training is essential for preventing age-related muscle loss. The truth about protein combining. Creatine and a plant-based diet. The truth about oxalates and lectins. Getting iron from animal foods versus plant foods. How carotenoids affect your appearance and the best food sources. David's practical tips for getting enough protein on a plant-based diet.

In binge eating recovery, many people believe they should be able to keep every food in the house, eat every food casually, and handle every food environment without support. But recovery is not about proving you can do everything the hard way.In this episode, we talk about guardrails: practical supports that make desired behaviors easier and reduce the setups that tend to make eating feel chaotic. Guardrails might include buying smaller portions, putting certain foods out of sight, using a Kitchen Safe, asking for help at home, planning food when traveling, or choosing the conditions that make a tricky food feel calmer.You'll learn why guardrails are not the same as bans, why needing support does not mean you're failing, and how to tell the difference between a supportive guardrail and punitive restriction.New to the show?

We're used to having Lianne Phillipson on the show to talk nutrition, but today we're talking about something completely different.

It was an incredible adventure that also included some unexpected challenges, she spoke to Ken Connors.

In this episode, we're talking about exhaustion urges: urges to binge, graze, order food, snack compulsively, or keep eating when your system is depleted and food starts to look like the fastest available relief.Instead of focusing mostly on what to do once you're already too exhausted to care, we're moving upstream. Exhaustion urges often start earlier than the urge itself, when your battery is being drained by skipped breaks, overpacked schedules, under-planned recovery, travel, big events, and pushing through when you are already under-resourced.You'll learn how to use the Battery Check, why breaks work best before you desperately need them, how to tell growth discomfort from depletion, why rescheduling can be a recovery skill, and how to use the simple in-the-moment tool Get Horizontal when you're already below 20%.New to the show?

In this episode, we're looking at restriction urges: the urges that say, “Get it while you can.” These urges are often not just about hunger or cravings. They are scarcity alarms. Sometimes the scarcity is physical, like not eating enough or going too long without food. Sometimes it is psychological, like food rules, guilt, or the feeling that you are technically allowed to eat something but still shouldn't want it. Sometimes it comes from the threat of future restriction: “Tomorrow I'll be good,” “After this weekend I'm stopping,” “I need to drop a few pounds before vacation,” or “This is the last time.”The main question from this episode is: “What am I afraid there is not enough of?” Maybe the answer is food, satisfaction, dessert, time, pleasure, freedom, permission, comfort, choice, or rest. Once you can hear the scarcity signal, you can respond with reliable permission instead of more control.New to the show?

Bingeing can be painful and costly, but it often persists because it is doing a job.Not working because it is harmless or because you want to keep doing it, but because it may have been doing something important for you. Bingeing may provide relief, comfort, rest, numbness, pleasure, rebellion, privacy, or a way to get through moments that feel impossible.In this episode, we look at bingeing as a coping strategy that may have helped you survive, especially if it began when you were young and had fewer choices. The goal is not to romanticize bingeing, but to understand what need it has been meeting so you can begin meeting that need earlier, more directly, and with less harm.New to the show?

In this episode, Georgie explains why the first danger often isn't the urge itself, but the meaning we attach to it: I can't handle this, I already know how this ends, I'm going to binge.You'll learn the “two waves” of an urge: the first wave is sensation, and the second wave is interpretation. The skill in the first 60 seconds isn't to make the urge disappear or diagnose it perfectly, it's to meet it with boring neutrality: “This is an urge. That's all. It'll be here for a while, and then it will leave.” From there, you can choose one small support, and later use the Urge Map if needed.Try this week: Practice the boring sentence three times when an urge appears. You don't have to stop eating, solve the urge, or do anything perfectly. Just notice what happens when you decline the story.New to the show?

Stop Arguing With Your Cravings: A Conversation with Dr. Glenn LivingstonThis episode is a rare guest conversation on Breaking Up With Binge Eating. Georgie is joined by Dr. Glenn Livingston, psychologist, author, and creator of Defeat Your Cravings, for a wide-ranging conversation about binge eating, cravings, food rules, self-trust, and why insight alone often isn't enough to change an eating pattern.Glenn shares his own history with compulsive overeating, including how years of therapy and self-understanding helped him become kinder to himself, but did not automatically stop the binge eating. Together, Georgie and Glenn explore why emotional pain can be part of the picture without being the whole cause, how the brain can use old wounds as justification for continuing a pattern, and why clear lines or “guardrails” can sometimes reduce the mental negotiation that keeps cravings alive.They also talk about the modern food environment, hyper-palatable foods, intermittent fasting, perfectionism, self-forgiveness, and why it is often easier to prevent cravings upstream than to fight them once they are roaring. Glenn offers practical tools for identifying the thoughts that try to talk you into eating against your own best judgment, while Georgie brings in her perspective on under-eating, over-productivity, emotional needs, and the importance of responding to both hunger and fullness cues with care.A key theme in this conversation is that recovery does not have to be built on shame. You can aim clearly without attacking yourself when you miss. You can protect your recovery without making your life smaller. And you can become someone who takes your own needs seriously, even when that means being a little “weird” in public, packing food, skipping the dessert you don't want, or refusing to harm yourself with food for someone else's comfort.Try this week: Notice one craving or urge and write down the thought that tries to justify it. Is it futility? Permission? “I deserve this”? “I'll start tomorrow”? Then ask: what would actually support me here?You can learn more about Dr. Glenn Livingston and access his free resources at DefeatYourCravings.com.New to the show?

So we know we need a calorie deficit to lose weight.We also know that you can make any food fit and still lose weight if the calories are correctly controlled.But should you? Just because you can do?That is the question not many ask and one that provides an additional layer of context to a commonly overly simplified area of nutrition. In this episode, I explain the nuance of flexible dieting and making any foods fit, with a consideration for the bigger nutrition picture. DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is for guidance only and is not individualised advice for you!

The takeaway: drive and pleasure can decouple. That's why food can feel magnetic even when it's not actually delivering much satisfaction.Georgie also walks through three common reasons wanting can run hotter than liking: cues and habit loops, scarcity, and stress or depletion. You'll learn how to use a not worth it list, a pleasure check, and the concept of diminishing returns to interrupt the trance of “more will fix it.”Try this week: Pick one risk food or one risk time when wanting tends to get loud. If you eat, pause partway through and ask: “Am I actually liking this, or am I chasing relief?” If liking is low, try one re-route action from your urge map: nourishment, soft landing, soothing, permission with structure, or breaking a cue chain.Coming next: What to do in the first 60 seconds of an urge—before it escalates and before you start negotiating with yourself.

GLP-1 medications are taking the world by storm, but the conversations surrounding them can lack nuance. That's why I'm doing a 3-part podcast series with three different dietitians all about these drugs.ICYMI, we kicked things off with GLP-1 Medications: What Active People Need to Know.The series continues in episode 138 with Summer Kessel, RD, CSOWM, a Certified Specialist in Obesity and Weight Management and GLP-1 nutrition expert. Summer also has personal experience taking GLP-1s herself, which brings a unique perspective to this conversation.Summer and I discuss:What food noise is, and how it differs from hunger or cravingsHer personal experience with obesity, weight loss, and taking GLP-1sOverlap between food noise, chronic dieting, and disordered eating patternsWho should (and shouldn't) be on these drugs Risks and benefits of GLP-1 use in different populationsWhy inappropriate GLP-1 use cases shouldn't overshadow people who genuinely need these drugsHow weight stigma and judgment can make GLP-1 conversations even more difficultWhy compassion, individualized care, and ongoing professional support matter I hope this episode helps you better understand GLP-1 medications and the experiences of those who use them. I know this is a controversial topic...questions and feedback are always welcome (claire@eatforendurance.com)! 

New to the show? Start Here: https://breakingupwithbingeeating.transistor.fm/start-herePick the listening path that fits what you're dealing with right now.Show Notes: In this episode, Georgie gives you a practical “urge map” to answer the question that matters in real life: what kind of urge is this? Because the same pantry moment can come from very different mechanisms—and if you use the wrong tool, it's easy to assume you “did it wrong” when you were simply solving the wrong problem. The core skill is matching the tool to the mechanism.You'll learn five common urge types and what each one actually needs: the Low-Fuel urge (under-fueling—food that counts), the Depletion urge (low capacity—less load and a soft landing), the Pain Relief urge (emotional or physical discomfort—soothing and often connection), the Scarcity/Rebellion urge (restriction and “I can't” energy—a believable yes and permission with structure), and the Autopilot urge (cue chains—pattern interruption, not self-criticism). You'll also get a quick five-question check-in to identify what's driving the urge in the moment, plus concrete examples of “permission with structure” and simple ways to break an evening cue chain.Try this week: Pick your most common urge type and run one experiment for seven days—data, not a test. (Afternoon anchor snack; a 10-minute downshift after dinner; a two-word feeling label + one moment of contact; a planned “yes” with structure; or breaking one link in your autopilot routine.)Coming next: Why urges can feel so persuasive even when the eating isn't that enjoyable—wanting vs liking.

"The [symtpoms] of under-fueling, and REDs, make it a lot harder to meet your [calorie] needs," shares dietitian KC Stockmon. "It's kind of this vicious cycle."  We're here to talk about how many calories an athlete actually needs to be eating, WHY it's important to eat enough, and the symptoms of under-fueling. The problem is, under-fueling is so common in athletics that athletes are quick to dismiss their symptoms as just "part of training". When actually, if the body has the energy—aka calories—that it needs to function well *and* recover from your training sessions, you might feel great. You just don't know what you don't know.  That's why we're here, in Lane 9, with reminders to eat enough, fuel before during and after training sessions, and connect with sport-specialized healthcare providers when you need to!

Gut health has become one of the biggest wellness trends online.Everywhere you look, there are:Greens powdersProbiotic supplementsGut cleansesDetox teas“Gut healing” protocolsExpensive wellness drinksRestrictive elimination dietsAnd honestly? It can feel overwhelming trying to figure out what actually supports gut health versus what is simply clever marketing.As a registered dietitian, I think there are some gut health habits that truly can support digestion, energy, and overall wellness. But I also think social media has made gut health way more complicated than it needs to be.The reality is this:You do not need a cabinet full of supplements to support your gut.Let's break down the gut health trends that may actually help — and the ones I personally think are overhyped.Check out the blog post: Gut Health Trends Follow us on INSTAGRAM

In this season opener, Georgie reframes urges as signals, not commands, and explains why urges get so loud when pressure rises and capacity drops. You'll learn why the goal isn't to eliminate urges, but to keep them from escalating.This episode also tackles a common trap: the belief that you have to binge to make an urge go away. In reality, urges can rise, peak, and pass without a binge—and bingeing often creates more urges by reinforcing the relief loop and adding extra pressure afterward (shame, fear, compensation thoughts, and scarcity). You'll also learn what fuels escalation in the moment—panic language, negotiating, future-tripping, shame/secrecy, and all-or-nothing thinking—and how to step out of that spiral.You'll get a simple four-step “first move” for any urge: label it (“signal, not order”), use neutral language (“uncomfortable, not dangerous”), take a small pause to restore choice, and ask what the urge is actually asking for (food, rest, relief, connection, or predictability).Try this week: Catch and label three urges. Don't make it a test of whether you eat—just reduce escalation by 10% and treat it as data, not a verdict.Coming next: Episode 2 builds your Urge Map—how to identify what kind of urge you're having and match the tool to the mechanism.

How do you eat healthy when it feels like the system is set up for you to fail? For indigenous Floridians, it's become especially challenging to eat the foods that sustained their ancestors for thousands of years.Having been pushed off of their land, given ultraprocessed government foods and finding their surroundings polluted, many members of Florida's Seminole Tribe wrestle with lifestyle-related health issues.Karen Two Shoes knows this all too well. After being diagnosed with diabetes, she decided to make some changes. She lost 80 pounds and went back to school to become a registered dietitian. Today, Two Shoes works as nutrition coordinator for the Seminole Tribe of Florida, helping her fellow community members reclaim their health by incorporating traditional Seminole practices into the 21st century.Two Shoes chatted with Dalia about her own health journey and how she's inspiring others.

Not because it's quick or simple, but because binge eating and emotional eating aren't random or a personal flaw—they're understandable system responses to pressure, depletion, and the search for relief. This episode reframes what real progress looks like: not dramatic turning points, but quieter shifts—more time between binges, shorter spirals, urges that don't hijack you the same way, and hard days met with steadiness instead of punishment. You'll hear a new definition of progress (“what happened next?” and “did I reduce pressure anywhere?”), a compassionate way to understand setbacks as data (pressure exceeded capacity), and a framework for moving from self-surveillance to self-understanding. If you take one thing from this finale, let it be this: you're not failing—you're learning a pattern that responds to understanding, steadiness, and support. You're allowed to keep learning at your own pace, and you don't have to do it alone.

The new food pyramid was released earlier this year. It emphasizes protein, full-fat dairy and what Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. calls “healthy fats.” These guidelines influence the standards for  school lunches, food labeling and programs like SNAP. Today on the show, Short Wave co-host Emily Kwong chats with registered dietitian nutritionist Shana Spence, and Dr. Sarah Kim, a diabetes specialist, about the new guidelines. Plus, NPR's Reflect America fellow Kadin Mills unpacks how the new food pyramid could change school lunch trays. Check out more of Kadin's coverage about the changes in dietary guidelines.Interested in more health science?
