      Acceptance.

AB  - Binge-eating disorder (BED) is a severe eating disorder strongly associated with 
      obesity. Treatments struggle to provide safe and effective ways of addressing 
      weight in a BED context. This study explored a two-phased treatment for BED 
      developed at a major out-patient eating disorder service in Denmark. The study 
      used interviews and participant observations to gain insight into experiences and 
      processes related to weight and body issues in three treatment contexts that 
      addressed weight stability, weight acceptance, and weight loss. Using systems 
      theory, the study proposed a relational weight problem that embeds feelings of 
      non-acceptance due to weight, a merge of weight and identity, and an internalized 
      body- and weight-critical gaze of others. Contrary to critical claims that weight 
      acceptance discourages people with obesity from engaging in weight loss efforts, 
      this study suggests that acceptance and a disentanglement of weight and identity 
      are prerequisites for weight loss for this group.
