β¦ Synopsis
Objective: To investigate the relationships between binge eating disorder and night eating in severely obese patients. Design: Longitudinal study following biliopancreatic diversion, when any preoccupation with food and weight is completely abandoned. Materials and Methods: Structured interview prior to the operation and at the 1, 2, and 3-year follow-up visit. Results: Nearly complete disappearance of binging behavior and no changes in the frequency of night eating. Conclusion: Binge eating and night eating are widely overlapping but different behaviors; night eating appears to be fully independent of preoccupation with food and dieting.
