Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine biological (e.g., energy expenditure, neuroendocrine and appetitive hormones)and behavioral (e.g., binge eating and purging) correlates of weight suppression and current dieting status in women with bulimia nervosa. The investigators have differentiated between a diet-induced long-term energy imbalance (weight suppression, or the difference between one's highest-ever body weight and current weight) and a short-term energy imbalance (current dieting to either lose weight or avoid weight gain). This study will elucidate how two common yet largely unexplored types of dieting influence biological and behavioral variables in patients with bulimia nervosa, which could lead to modifications of prevailing models of bulimia nervosa and new strategies for improving treatment outcome.
