Why do I eat so much?

To demonstrate how Binge Eating Disorder (BED) can destroy a person's daily life, doctors Alfredo Halpern and Adriano Segal brought to life Simone, a spirited young woman who suffers from bouts of uncontrolled eating. The character's drama is compounded by Simone's relationship with her family, her excess weight resulting from her poor diet, her emotional imbalance, and her lack of self-confidence. To change her life, she must be disciplined to win this personal battle and exorcise this enemy once and for all. The book also includes a clinical analysis of the case, which describes guidelines and clarifications about BED, with the goal of always achieving the correct diagnosis as quickly as possible.
