Abstract
We present a description of basic concepts of the cognitive-behavioural app roach in obese patients with binge eating disorders. In the first place, we propose the process leading to a behavioural reorgan ization. Then, we evoke some components of the cognitive restructuring that allow to understand the link between an event and binge eating disorders. We also give practical advice to the health care providers.
