People diagnosed with binge eating disorder experience regular episodes of eating large amounts of food while feeling a loss of control over their eating behavior. Unlike bulimia nervosa, these binge episodes are not accompanied by behaviors aimed at preventing weight gain, such as vomiting, fasting, or excessive exercise. The book provides a practical guide for therapy planning and implementation after describing the disorder and the diagnostic process. It presents a cognitive-behavioral approach that focuses on areas crucial for the treatment of binge eating disorder: treatment modules are included for developing a health-promoting lifestyle in the areas of nutrition and exercise, as well as for enhancing body awareness.
