161. The Overlap between Binge Eating Disorder and Obesity (Part 2)
161. The Overlap between Binge Eating Disorder and Obesity (Part 2)
In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between Binge Eating Disorder (BED) and the emotional or hedonic eating patterns we often see in obesity. While BED and obesity can overlap, they’re not the same — and treatment looks very different for each.
I share who to screen for BED, how to ask about eating behaviours with compassion, and the most effective treatment options, including CBT-ED, nutrition therapy, and medications. Then I shift into understanding non-BED overeating patterns driven by emotional eating, all-or-nothing thinking, and over-desire around food.
If you want a clearer, more compassionate understanding of eating disorders and obesity-related eating behaviours, this episode will guide you through both.
