Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

People with binge eating disorder have food binges like people with bulimia but don't do
any compensatory behaviors. They don't restrict their diet between binges as much as
people with bulimia. People with binge eating disorder tend to be older than people with
bulimia, and are more likely to be overweight or obese.
