title: [How to define and to analyse troubles of eating behaviours?].
abstract: Eating disorders are frequent in obese patients, and often underreported. However, it is mandatory to diagnose and to assess them, as therapeutic management of these eating disorders should precede weight loss attempts. We describe the main eating disorders, their diagnosis and assessment, as well as the important steps of the management strategy, in which cognitive-behavioural therapy should play a major role.
