This chapter discusses \u003cb\u003eanorexia\u003c/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003ebulimia-like\u003c/b\u003e disorders. These \u003cb\u003eeating disorders\u003c/b\u003e are characterised by the use of inappropriate behaviours to control body weight and feelings, as evidenced by low body weight, high body weight, extreme weight-control behaviours such as vomiting and starvation, excessive exercise and binge eating.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eObesity - General Practice: The Integrative Approach\u003c/i\u003e. General Practitioners in primary care are uniquely placed to help in the management of patients in all stages of \u003cb\u003eoverweight\u003c/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eobesity\u003c/b\u003e, and are able to maintain a therapeutic relationship with patients over many years. General practitioners should take a long-term view of weight problems, which can mean avoiding goals for weight management that are unlikely to be achieved.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c/p\u003e |
