How long does it take to overcome binge eating?

Here's the thing about the hypothalamus, it can't control motor movements on its own, it must convince the rest of your brain to do things for it. The food zombie can't make you pick up food and it can't make you put food in your mouth, it has to convince the rest of your brain to do those things. Because the food zombie can't physically make you eat, it becomes very skilled at manipulating you into eating.

We need to take back our thoughts and power from the food zombie and beat the urge.

Once we break the habit of bingeing as a solution to our problems, the urges to binge become less. The less we give into our urges, the stronger the habit of not bingeing becomes.
