Registered dietician Nicki Parlitsis joins Don to have an honest conversation about our complicated relationships with food, and why so many people find themselves caught in a cycle of restriction, binge eating, guilt, and starting over.

Nicki explains how an all-or-nothing mindset can turn one indulgent meal into the feeling that you've "ruined" an entire day or week. They explore how restricting food, labeling foods as "good" or "bad," and putting unrealistic expectations on ourselves can contribute to patterns of overeating and binge eating, and why breaking that cycle starts with changing the way we think about food.

The conversation also looks at the role of stress, emotional regulation, and self-awareness in our eating habits. Nicki shares practical strategies for recognizing what is actually driving the desire to eat, creating more balanced meals, and moving forward after a setback instead of waiting for the next day, Monday, or the next diet to start again.
