Then Saturday happened and you ate everything in sight. Now you're lying on the sofa feeling like absolute shit, promising yourself you'll start again Monday. This isn't a willpower problem. It's biology. In this episode of No Forking Nonsense, registered nutritionist Paul Evans (MSc, RNutr) breaks down exactly why binge eating happens, why it's not your fault, and how to stop the restrict-binge-guilt cycle that's been ruining your weekends for years. We cover: The Minnesota Starvation Experiment (1944) and what it reveals about restriction and overeating Why eating 1,200 calories during the week guarantees you'll binge on Saturday The blood sugar rollercoaster that makes one biscuit turn into ten The "fuck it" button and all-or-nothing thinking Why you can't stop eating at night (and what to do instead) The exact calorie targets that prevent binges without restricting progress How to give yourself permission without losing control This isn't generic advice about "listening to your body." This is evidence-based, practical information that will change how you think about food forever.

If you've ever felt out of control around food, blamed yourself for binging, or promised to "be better" next week - this episode is for you. For five days of completely free coaching head to tinyurl.com/kickstarter26

YOUR FREE MEAL DEAL CHEAT RESOURCE Intermittent fasting is either praised as a miracle cure for fat loss or dragged as a glorified eating disorder. Most of what you’re being fed is complete marketing garbage. In this episode: Intermittent Fasting: Science vs. Bullsh*t we explore whether you swear by the 16:8 method, think OMAD is life-changing, or think the entire fasting world is a cult- you are probably doing it wrong. No bias. No corporate sponsors. Just raw, evidence-based nutrition cutting through the noise to tell you exactly what fasting does to your body, what it doesn't do, and who is lying to you for profit. Drop the ego, and get the facts. @paulthenutritionist 🍅
