Binge eating: Yes, binge eating disorder focuses on eating behaviors not the weight of the person affected. In binge eating disorder, one eats a very large amount of food with a sense of losing control and guilt or shame. Bulimia nervosa involves binge eating AND compensatory behaviors to get rid the excess calories.
