Ryan Sheldon is the blogger behind Confessions of a Binge Eater. He’s bravely and openly shared his experiences with binge eating disorder (BED) as he’s navigated recovery. His presence in the blogosphere is shining an important light on how men are affected by eating disorders, despite predominant stereotypes about eating disorder sufferers.   In this interview, Ryan and I go deep on what binge eating disorder actually looks like. He really opens up about the day-to-day machinations of the disorder, what a binge episode looks like, and the ways in which it becomes difficult to function when you’re a highly progressed binge eater.   BED is a pretty new disorder, relative to other eating disorders like anorexia nervosa and bulimia that we’ve been hearing about for years. And yet, BED is the most prominent eating disorder and it’s highly prevalent among men. Ryan’s bravery in opening up this dialogue is doing so much good for the ED community, and for all of us in opening our eyes to what this disease looks like! And his ability to rise above his past issues in recovery is an inspiration to us all.   Key takeaways:   Ryan’s experience with binge eating The stigma against men who share their experiences with eating disorders The ways in which Ryan’s binge eating was overlooked by healthcare providers for years The difference between being someone who likes food and a clinical binge eater The common misperception about what eating disorders look like. Specifically, higher weight and normal weight people suffer from eating disorders too! It’s not just skinny white chicks. Body dysmorphia and the role it’s played in Ryan’s own experience What binge eating disorder looks like, in terms of Ryan’s interactions with food The importance of mindfulness in the recovery process How harmful media stereotypes about our bodies and dieting can be in encouraging unhealthy, disordered behavior around food and weight control Why dieting and medical intervention aren’t the answer, and dealing with the mental and emotional drivers behind binge eating is Binge eating as an act of rebellion How to bring up tough conversations about self-harming with food with your loved ones   Mentioned in this episode:   DC NEDA Walk, March 25, 2018 Ryan’s blog, Confessions of a Binge Eater Ryan’s Instagram Ryan’s new YouTube project, Mr. Confessions   Share the Body Love!   Share what you learned here via Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, or Twitter   Subscribe on iTunes and leave a review.

Ryan hopes his story will help others suffering from BED overcome shame and embarrassment. In particular, Ryan provides a voice for the many men struggling eating disorders while encouraging them to get help. Ryan used to spend his days thinking about food, planning for it, and indulging in it. For years, he justified this by calling it “emotional eating” until he realized his love affair with food was spiraling out of control. Ryan was diagnosed with Binge Eating Disorder, an illness characterized by compulsive overeating.​ ​Since then, he has made it his mission to not only overcome BED but to inspire others to do the same.
