Ryan hopes his story will help others suffering from BED overcome shame and embarrassment. In particular, Ryan provides a voice for the many men struggling eating disorders while encouraging them to get help. Ryan used to spend his days thinking about food, planning for it, and indulging in it. For years, he justified this by calling it “emotional eating” until he realized his love affair with food was spiraling out of control. Ryan was diagnosed with Binge Eating Disorder, an illness characterized by compulsive overeating.​ ​Since then, he has made it his mission to not only overcome BED but to inspire others to do the same.
