What is binge eating disorder?
Binge eating disorder
is an illness which resembles bulimia nervosa. Like
bulimics, binge eaters have episodes of uncontrolled eating or
bingeing. However, binge eating disorder differs from bulimia
because its sufferers do not purge their bodies of excess food.
Individuals with binge eating
disorders feel that they lose control of themselves when
eating. They eat large quantities of food and do not stop until
they are uncomfortably full. Usually, they have more difficulty
losing weight and keeping it off than do people with other serious
weight problems. Most people with the disorder are obese and have
a history of weight fluctuations.
