Pam Dwyer

The Plus One Theory podcast launches a new series called "Delay the Binge," exploring how learning to pause before emotional eating can transform our relationship with food and create lasting change. My personal journey from struggling with emotional eating at nearly 300 pounds to developing a simple but powerful pause technique demonstrates how small, intentional actions can lead to meaningful transformation.

• Origin story of Delay the Binge emerging from a marketing conversation about the Plus One Theory
• Personal struggle with emotional eating that led to weighing almost 300 pounds
• The breakthrough discovery of pausing and saying "I can have this tomorrow if I still want it"
• How one pause represents a Plus One that accumulates to create sustainable change
• Understanding that Delay the Binge applies beyond food to overthinking, overworking, and other behaviors
• Announcement of the free Delay the Binge Collective launch event on October 2nd from 7-8pm Central Time
• Future monthly membership opportunity for ongoing community support
• "Your past doesn't define you, it prepares you" philosophy applied to emotional eating

This is Delay the Binge™ — formerly The Plus One Theory Podcast.

Delay the Binge™ explores the patterns behind urges, habits, stress patterns, burnout, and Quiet Depletion™ — and what happens in the pause between impulse and action, where real behavior change begins.

Through conversations with leading experts in neuroscience, psychology, resilience, and human behavior, you’ll gain practical insight into how the brain shapes reactions — and how small, intentional shifts create lasting behavior change.

Full video episodes available on YouTube.
