Do you ever find yourself eating too much at dinner? Do you ever feel uncomfortable at social gatherings and console yourself with food? Do you feel like you’re wasting time at some event and eat to while the time away? In today’s Taste for Truth podcast episode, I’ll be coaching Becky about these subjects.
Here is a sampling of the topics we’ll be discussing:
- eating too much at meals
- failure eating
- overeating at social gatherings
- eating because you feel uncomfortable at social gatherings
- how the I Deserve a Donut failure eating questions can help you avoid a binge
- how to renew your mind before social events
- how to think differently about social events you don’t want to be at
- how God can use social events for your good if you’re a person who would rather be working on your to-do list rather than going to the social event
We also discuss the following lies:
- This social gathering will take a long time. I need something (food) to occupy me.
- I’m a little uncomfortable here. I’ll feel better if I eat.
- I should be using my time better (than being at this social gathering).
- I’m wasting my time here (so I should eat).

Virginia Duckworth says
Great podcast! I could relate to the overeating at dinner and at social situations. Your suggestions are great. I used the Insecurity-Social Situations to renew my mind before a recent gathering and it really helped. I love the idea of reading Corinthians and thinking of ways to love the other guests well. Thanks for all your terrific content, Barb!!

Debbie Page says
Thank You so much Barb and Becky for doing this interview. It was very helpful to me. I have just started Taste for Truth bible study and am getting so much from it. I have been relying more on food programs and the people in those groups to help me more than renewing my mind. I love Becky’s honesty and transparency and Barb your so kind and helpful.
