Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: Binge-eating disorder clients are almost universally obese, which is defined as having body weight that exceeds, by 30, the recommended weight on standard weight and height tables. Clients who binge-eat are less likely to become anorexic, hungry, or emaciated.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,3
Rationale: Focus on one word, object, or symbol to look at or think about if the client finds it helpful. A repeated word, an object, or symbol to look at or think about, or a specific thought or feeling helps keep distracting thoughts from entering the mind.
