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.
