AB  - The current study aimed to examine the role of binge eating (BE) in explaining 
      weight loss in patients undergoing laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) 
      for severe obesity. Participants were 49 patients (13 males and 36 females) who 
      completed questionnaires two weeks prior and three and six months after their 
      operation. Predictor measures of weight loss included pre and postoperative BE 
      and changes in BE following surgery. A decrease in BE as a consequence of having 
      surgery was able to significantly predict postoperative weight loss. Many 
      surgical services currently screen patients for BE at baseline to identify those 
      most suitable for surgery. This study suggests that this process may be redundant 
      as the results indicate that it is not the presence of BE pre- or 
      post-operatively which are predictive of treatment-induced weight loss, but 
      whether patients' BE behaviours decrease or persist in response to surgery. 
      Future research therefore should seek to identify predictors of decreased BE 
      following surgery in order to enhance candidate selection and improve the 
      efficacy of this form of obesity management.
