Answer to Question 1

Binge eatingthe rapid consumption of an abnormally large amount of food in a relatively short timeis probably the most common eating disorder and often occurs with compulsive eaters. The 25 million Americans with a binge-eating disorder typically eat a larger-than-ordinary amount of food during a relatively brief period, feel a lack of control over eating, and binge at least once a week for at least a three-month period. During most of these episodes, binge eaters experience at least three of the following:
 Eating much more rapidly than usual
 Eating until they feel uncomfortably full
 Eating large amounts of food when not feeling physically hungry
 Eating large amounts of food throughout the day with no planned mealtimes
 Eating alone because they are embarrassed by how much they eat and by their eating habits.
Binge eaters may spend up to several hour seating and consume 2,000 or more calories in a single bingemore than many people eat in a day. After such binges, they usually do not do anything to control weight but simply get fatter.As their weight climbs, they become depressed,anxious, or troubled by other psychological symptoms to a much greater extent than others of comparable weight.
