A comparison of quality of life in obese individuals with and without binge eating disorder

The binge eating disorder (BED) in obese individuals is associated with a greater degree of impairment in quality of life (QOL) than obesity alone is investigated. Results revealed that obese individuals with BED scored significantly higher than non-BED participants on each of the subscales and on the total scale of the impact of weight on quality of life (IWQOL- Lite).
