Human beings are creatures of habit and, one way or another, we find ourselves shifting into routines, including binge eating disorder routines.

You can find binge eating disorder symptoms in your closet, too. Binge eating disorder (BED) can impact your weight, and by extension, the size and shape of your body.

I have binge eating disorder and as of May 2015, began a vegetarian diet.

Fad dieting is not healthy for anyone, but when you have binge eating disorder, fad dieting can be a symptom of your binge eating disorder and do serious damage to your mind and body.
