Abstract

Eating disorders are motivated behavior disorders characterized by disordered eating behaviors and functional impairment. Medical and nutritional complications may be severe and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Discussion of medical complications may serve as a therapeutic tool to engage ambivalent patients in treatment. Behaviorally oriented treatments that emphasize weight restoration or maintenance, as well as normalization of eating behaviors, are associated with the best short- and long-term outcomes and with lower rates of relapse.
