摘要
Purpose: Lesbians are more likely to be obese compared to heterosexual women, but little research has examined correlates of obesity among lesbians. The purpose of this study was to examine the association of binge eating and overweight and obesity among lesbians. Methods: Self-identified lesbians (N = 377) between the ages of 18-30 completed an online survey. Results: Binge eating was a salient predictor of both overweight and obesity after controlling for demographic variables, outness, diet, and physical activity. Conclusion: Health promotion and weight loss intervention programs for lesbians should assess binge eating behaviors as a possible contributor to overweight and obesity.
