| #obsm chat @obsmchat @ZHeatherChamp If only we'd existed years ago! Glad to be here now, though :). #obsm |
| Patty Nece @pattynece @obsmchat Q1: It helped me to have a health care pro who didn’t judge my eating. It gave me a safe place to discuss binge eating without feeling guilty about it. #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat LOL 😉 #obsm |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD Q1. Often find that people hit a certain bottom before opening up about disordered eating. #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @Eggface @ObesityAction Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on tonight's topic, Shelly! #obsm |

| Marilyn Clark @OffThePlateMC @obsmchat Q1: I don't think I fully understood my patterns until I did a lot of self-exploration. Maybe they were pointed out to me but I wasn't ready to listen #obsm |
| Bruce Y. Lee @bruce_y_lee RT @Eggface: Follow @obsmchat & add #OBSM to your tweets to contribute to tonight's discussion beginning now! https://t.co/xtVRzbyZg7 |

| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD @OffThePlateMC @obsmchat I think change doesn't occur until you really want the help...you have to be ready. #obsm |

| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat A1: Whsr exactly is “disordered” eating please? #obsm |
| Bruce Y. Lee @bruce_y_lee RT @obsmchat: Welcome to the #obsm chat. Tonight we are discussing disordered eating among those intent on losing weight. All persons--from health practitioners to prospective patients to allies and friends--are welcome to join. |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @OffThePlateMC What prompted you to do that self-exploration? #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat A1: What exactly is “disordered” eating please? #obsm |
| Deborah Greenhouse @greenhousemd @obsmchat Disordered eating is never just about eating. There is always more going on in the background. Identifying the other factors (anxiety, depression etc) often allows the patient to reach out and accept help. #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel RT @PaulDavidsonPhD: @OffThePlateMC @obsmchat I think change doesn't occur until you really want the help...you have to be ready. #obsm |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD Unfortunately, disordered eating often is secretive. It may include binge eating, purging, anorexia, grazing, night eating...#obsm |
 | Dr. Sylvia “Voice” Bollie, MD, DABOM @EmbraceYouMD Hi so excited I could finally join @obsmchat 🙌I’m Dr. Sylvia Bollie, an Obesity Medicine physician & former emotional-eater in USA 🇺🇸 #obsm #weightlossjourney https://t.co/VWaG6pAqUP |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @AskDr_Rachel What are the most common indicators healthcare professionals should watch out for? #obsm |
| Janet Elizabeth Childerhose, PhD @JEChilderhose Great question. Thanks for asking! #obsm https://t.co/5OdlX056wK |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @PaulDavidsonPhD: @OffThePlateMC @obsmchat I think change doesn't occur until you really want the help...you have to be ready. #obsm |
| Marilyn Clark @OffThePlateMC @PaulDavidsonPhD @obsmchat I totally agree. I am learning a TON and still have lots to learn, but awareness is the key for me #obsm |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD @greenhousemd @obsmchat Agreed. Disordered eating is a symptom of other issues most often. #OBSM |
| Patty Nece @pattynece RT @greenhousemd: @obsmchat Disordered eating is never just about eating. There is always more going on in the background. Identifying the other factors (anxiety, depression etc) often allows the patient to reach out and accept help. #obsm |

| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel @PaulDavidsonPhD @OffThePlateMC @obsmchat Absolutely! For many individuals, they dont want to change until they identify there is a problem. #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @OffThePlateMC Are you on insta by chance? #obsm |
 | Crystal Johnson-Mann, MD, MPH, FACS, FASMBS @CJMannMD @obsmchat A willingness of healthcare providers and friends/family to actually LISTEN is the first step. Supportive environments and working on #selflove are next as this provides the environment needed to continue down a healthier path. #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @JEChilderhose Is it an eating disorder? #obsm |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD @CJMannMD @obsmchat So important for HCPs to not be judgmental and to come with a supportive, hope-inducing stance with disordered eating. #OBSM |
| Janet Elizabeth Childerhose, PhD @JEChilderhose I think others will have to answer this! #obsm https://t.co/oSLVzUJ06g |
| Marilyn Clark @OffThePlateMC It was really in preparation for gastric bypass that I knew I had to change everything about my life - from sleep, to my job, to exercise, to self, talk (I could go on) #obsm https://t.co/IRVAPcppRB |
| Bruce Y. Lee @bruce_y_lee RT @AskDr_Rachel: @obsmchat it is important for all healthcare professionals to know what to look for in order to identify #disorderedeating behaviors and to help our patients. #OBSM |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @ZHeatherChamp these are some behaviors that are considered disordered eating. #obsm https://t.co/dMbzTVJoeq |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD @ZHeatherChamp @JEChilderhose It may be part of an eating disorder or problematic eating linked to #obesity. #obsm |
| Bruce Y. Lee @bruce_y_lee RT @CJMannMD: @obsmchat A willingness of healthcare providers and friends/family to actually LISTEN is the first step. Supportive environments and working on #selflove are next as this provides the environment needed to continue down a healthier path. #obsm |

 | Maureen Mosti @MaureenMostiM Nurse, bariatric clinic coordinator and happy patient #OBSM in México |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat Thanks! Never heard it phrased “disordered” eating. #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @PaulDavidsonPhD: @greenhousemd @obsmchat Agreed. Disordered eating is a symptom of other issues most often. #OBSM |
 | Adeel A. Shamim MD, FACS, FASMBS 🇵🇰🇺🇸🇨🇦 @Adeel_A_Sham PGY-4 surgery resident, aspiring MIS/Bariatrics fellow. Excited to learn tonight. #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel @obsmchat I think it is important to do a 24 hour food recall with all patients, as well as a "typical" day, which includes time the individual wakes up, time they eat throughout the day, time they go to sleep etc. This will give us a lot of insight. #obsm |
 | iamabariatricpatient @JeanineMSherman RT @obsmchat: @ZHeatherChamp these are some behaviors that are considered disordered eating. #obsm https://t.co/dMbzTVJoeq |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @CJMannMD: @obsmchat A willingness of healthcare providers and friends/family to actually LISTEN is the first step. Supportive environments and working on #selflove are next as this provides the environment needed to continue down a healthier path. #obsm |
| Patty Nece @pattynece @TammiGoffPhotos @obsmchat This is so true!! And not so easy to find! #obsm |
| Janet Elizabeth Childerhose, PhD @JEChilderhose @PaulDavidsonPhD @ZHeatherChamp Anthropologist here: I have to wonder if there really is such a thing as "ordered" eating, given how fractured and busy our lives are. How many of us eat socially in groups, with plenty of time for pleasure and conversation? #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel @obsmchat Also, understanding an individuals thoughts surrounding food, eating and weight is also helpful to understand any potential problems. #obsm #disorderedeating |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat Not all disordered eating leads to an eating disorder, just as not all sadness leads to major depression. They are problematic eating habits which contribute to weight issues. #obsm |
| Marilyn Clark @OffThePlateMC Yes! Offtheplatehealthcoach and my WLS account is Marilyn_unraveled #obsm https://t.co/0iIXjrshkS |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @WohaibiMD Welcome! Thanks for joining. #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @JEChilderhose WOW. Is eating in those circumstances concerned “ordered” eating? #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @PaulDavidsonPhD: @CJMannMD @obsmchat So important for HCPs to not be judgmental and to come with a supportive, hope-inducing stance with disordered eating. #OBSM |
| OAC @ObesityAction Disordered eating is often the result of problems which have been internalized. For individuals with #obesity, it's not uncommon to face struggles with the perpetuating cycle of shame and blame. #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat It's a term that psychologists often use as they could be symptoms and behaviors, but not necessarily a "disorder." #obsm #disorderedeating #healthbeahviors |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @TammiGoffPhotos Any particular strategies that person used that were helpful? #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat @JEChilderhose @PaulDavidsonPhD So is “disordered” eating just a catch all phrase or something specific? So interesting! #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel RT @PaulDavidsonPhD: @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat Not all disordered eating leads to an eating disorder, just as not all sadness leads to major depression. They are problematic eating habits which contribute to weight issues. #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @OffThePlateMC I’ll add you! I’m the same user name on IG. #obsm |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD RT @ObesityAction: Disordered eating is often the result of problems which have been internalized. For individuals with #obesity, it's not uncommon to face struggles with the perpetuating cycle of shame and blame. #obsm |
| Patty Nece @pattynece @BALANCEedtc Thanks for sharing the article from psychology today! #obsm |
| Michelle Vicari @Eggface Many post #bariatricsurgery come to realize deeper issues were at play with their eating. I know I blamed a lot of stuff on my weight and when the weight was not as much a factor, I was forced to face those underlying causes & do some work above the neck #OBSM |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat Q2: Are providers working in the obesity field aware of disordered eating patterns and making appropriate referrals for treatment? What education is needed? #obsm |
| Neil Floch MD @NeilFlochMD RT @ObesityAction: Disordered eating is often the result of problems which have been internalized. For individuals with #obesity, it's not uncommon to face struggles with the perpetuating cycle of shame and blame. #obsm |
| Dr. Sylvia “Voice” Bollie, MD, DABOM @EmbraceYouMD Q1. Difficulty losing weight and/or maintaining #weightloss is a red flag. Till I identified that I was an emotional eater it was hard to lose weight much less keep it off. Patients need help understanding “why” they eat not just “what” to eat. #OBSM #obesity https://t.co/PeQ3cMnAJO |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @OffThePlateMC It makes sense that as you were preparing for #bariatricsurgery you re-examined your habits. Good for you--it's not easy to do. #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat @JEChilderhose @PaulDavidsonPhD It could be of many problematic eating behaviors, including night eating, grazing, binge eating, emotional eating, etc. #obsm |
| Patty Nece @pattynece RT @ObesityAction: Disordered eating is often the result of problems which have been internalized. For individuals with #obesity, it's not uncommon to face struggles with the perpetuating cycle of shame and blame. #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @MaureenMostiM Welcome, Maureen! Great to see you. #obsm |
| Patty Nece @pattynece RT @PaulDavidsonPhD: @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat Not all disordered eating leads to an eating disorder, just as not all sadness leads to major depression. They are problematic eating habits which contribute to weight issues. #obsm |
| Deborah Greenhouse @greenhousemd @obsmchat @AskDr_Rachel My fave question: "When you look in the mirror, do you see a person who is overweight, underweight or just right?" The answer can give you so much information to work with. #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @ZHeatherChamp You're right--it's a confusing distinction between disordered eating and eating disorders. #obsm |
| Neil Floch MD @NeilFlochMD RT @obsmchat: Q1: Q1: For those familiar with struggles with disordered eating, what circumstances facilitate acknowledging the patterns and seeking help? What assistance is needed most? #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @Adeel_A_Sham Welcome, Adeel! #obsm |
| Marilyn Clark @OffThePlateMC I had every intention of being a success story! #OBSM https://t.co/hQKAzrowLD |

| #obsm chat @obsmchat This is useful for most people interested in examining their eating habits! #obsm https://t.co/f6UvfIq51k |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @ConasonPsyD @obsmchat @JEChilderhose @PaulDavidsonPhD #obsm |
| Patty Nece @pattynece @fittmd This has been so important to my weight-management program! I knew what to eat - just couldn't figure out the why I didn't do it! #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel RT @obsmchat: This is useful for most people interested in examining their eating habits! #obsm https://t.co/f6UvfIq51k |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @BALANCEedtc Thanks for sharing! @ZHeatherChamp @JEChilderhose #obsm |
| Deborah Greenhouse @greenhousemd @obsmchat "Appropriate referrals" implies that appropriate resources are available. Not always the case. Knowing that you need to refer for disordered eating and being able to refer are not always the same thing. #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @JEChilderhose @PaulDavidsonPhD @ZHeatherChamp Ha! Great point. #obsm |
 | Kitty Softpaws @shero4hire RT @fittmd: Hi so excited I could finally join @obsmchat 🙌I’m Dr. Sylvia Bollie, an Obesity Medicine physician & former emotional-eater in USA 🇺🇸 #obsm #weightlossjourney https://t.co/VWaG6pAqUP |

| #obsm chat @obsmchat @PaulDavidsonPhD @ZHeatherChamp Thanks, Paul! #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @greenhousemd Dang. Who asks that question ? The doctor to US or US to ourselves? #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @ObesityAction: Disordered eating is often the result of problems which have been internalized. For individuals with #obesity, it's not uncommon to face struggles with the perpetuating cycle of shame and blame. #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel Q2: Unfortunately I dont think all healthcare professionals in the #obesity field are aware of what to look for and when to make an appropriate referral. This is a great time when a #Mentalhealth professional would be useful to have on the interdisciplinary team. #obsm |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD With weight management and bariatric programs, it is so valuable to have behavioral health professionals available to deal with the emotional side of the equation. #obsm |
| Neil Floch MD @NeilFlochMD @obsmchat @OffThePlateMC Great advice #Obsm https://t.co/NGjUllZNbM |
| Neil Floch MD @NeilFlochMD RT @AskDr_Rachel: @obsmchat I think it is important to do a 24 hour food recall with all patients, as well as a "typical" day, which includes time the individual wakes up, time they eat throughout the day, time they go to sleep etc. This will give us a lot of insight. #obsm |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @fittmd SO TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #obsm |
| Marilyn Clark @OffThePlateMC Yes - post-surgery I had the same discovery. Happiness is not achieved by reaching a number on a scale #obsm https://t.co/4RCTAR3vSm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @ZHeatherChamp @JEChilderhose @PaulDavidsonPhD It covers a number of unhealthy eating behaviors. #obsm |
 | David Creel @drdavidcreel Trust is essential in the therapeutic relationship. Even if patients aren’t ready to change , they may be willing to discuss. That’s an important first step. #obsm https://t.co/TF2gJs2m3X |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @Eggface: Many post #bariatricsurgery come to realize deeper issues were at play with their eating. I know I blamed a lot of stuff on my weight and when the weight was not as much a factor, I was forced to face those underlying causes & do some work above the neck #OBSM |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel RT @PaulDavidsonPhD: With weight management and bariatric programs, it is so valuable to have behavioral health professionals available to deal with the emotional side of the equation. #obsm |
| Patty Nece @pattynece @greenhousemd @obsmchat There's definitely a lack of psychological help across the country, for this and other issues. #obsm |
| Marilyn Clark @OffThePlateMC Yes, support groups connected with my surgeon have been so valuable and insightful. #obsm https://t.co/gc1xuUg7GF |
| Deborah Greenhouse @greenhousemd @ZHeatherChamp I honestly suspect both. But I ask it to my adolescent patients if I'm concerned about disordered eating. #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat @fittmd Who was most helpful in identifying your emotional eating? A dietician? Psychologist? Primary care? #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel @PaulDavidsonPhD I absolutely agree with this!!! Ideally, a behavioral health professional is on the interdisciplinary team! #obsm |
| OAC @ObesityAction Quality #obesity treatment requires an HCP to understand that #obesity is complex; i.e. involves not only biological and behavioral factors, but also emotional factors. That level of education is key for a comprehensive treatment approach. #obsm https://t.co/NmTwv8pJlA |
| Neil Floch MD @NeilFlochMD @pattynece @fittmd #EmotionalEating #obsm @obsmchat https://t.co/4lpbk1BJpg |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel RT @OffThePlateMC: Yes - post-surgery I had the same discovery. Happiness is not achieved by reaching a number on a scale #obsm https://t.co/4RCTAR3vSm |
| Paul Davidson, PhD @PaulDavidsonPhD It takes courage for patients to admit to disordered eating patterns, but addressing them is a key to getting weight and self-image under better control. #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @greenhousemd: @obsmchat @AskDr_Rachel My fave question: @obsmchat @AskDr_Rachel My fave question: "When you look in the mirror, do you see a person who is overweight, underweight or just right?" The answer can give you so much information to work with. #obsm |
| Dr. Randi Dublin @RandiDublin @PaulDavidsonPhD @ZHeatherChamp @obsmchat And it has to affect/impair daily functioning, correct? #obsm |
| OAC @ObesityAction @MaureenMostiM @obsmchat So true, Maureen. Weight bias all too often begins in childhood and has the potential to stick with an adult for years to come. #obsm |

| Patty Nece @pattynece RT @obsmchat: @ZHeatherChamp @PaulDavidsonPhD That's appropriate--standard of care in this country involves preoperative psychological and dietary assessment to help optimize outcomes. #obsm |
| Nina Crowley PhD RDN @PsychoDietitian Does anyone have a great way to describe the importance of the role of behavioral specialists for preoperative assessments for patients who are just beginning to consider surgery #OBSM https://t.co/HOeTLTzbmm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @RandiDublin: Indeed 100%. We are on the patient's side and we want them to be prepared with all of the info they need to have this surgery help them and their health/QOL. #Obsm https://t.co/NiWAtyGFkV |
| Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp @PsychoDietitian I wonder why. #obsm |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @AskDr_Rachel: @obsmchat There are many when it comes to disordered eating, it could be emotional eating, fear of weight gain, binge eating, restrictive dieting, obsessive thoughts surrounding food and weight (to name a few). #obsm #disorderedeating |
| Deborah Greenhouse @greenhousemd @ZHeatherChamp @PaulDavidsonPhD @obsmchat @CJMannMD In a nutshell- Meeting your patient where they are, exploring their motivations and barriers, and helping them to move forward as a team. No judgements, no ultimatums. #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel Q3 contd. When the scale stops moving down, this can also lead to disordered eating or disordered thoughts if the individual does not have other nonscale goals or motivating factors. I always discuss this with patients prior to them reaching their "healthy" weight. #obsm https://t.co/mslOLa6CzQ |
| #obsm chat @obsmchat RT @PaulDavidsonPhD: It is often hard for someone struggling with obesity to address the emotional side. The thought is "the surgery will take care of the weight," and it is our job to help them recognize that diet, activity, and mindset ALL need to change for success. #obsm |

For me, I knew I needed to step on the scale less. #OBSM |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel @pattynece @OffThePlateMC and SO important!! Once the scale stops moving, individuals need something to work towards and look forward to. Other goals need to be set. #nonscalevictories #obsm |
| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel RT @pattynece: @OffThePlateMC Sometimes using the non-scale victories (NSVs) you experience can be far more motivating anyway! #obsm |

| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel RT @PsychoDietitian: Totally - and when we simply things by asking "are you on track?" it doesn't create an open discussion or place to share the reality.. #OBSM https://t.co/aeU53UzFDW |

| Dr. Rachel @AskDr_Rachel RT @RandiDublin: I think that its important to note that the healthier food choices have to be enjoyable to eat. People won't stick to something that isn't pleasurable. #obsm https://t.co/IFeWPLy225 |

| Nina Crowley PhD RDN @PsychoDietitian RT @greenhousemd: @obsmchat In adolescents, both prevention and treatment of obesity and eating disorders should focus on healthy lifestyle efforts rather than specific diets. As stated very well by @AmerAcadPeds : https://t.co/hcRvsNglPE #obsm |
| Dr. Kasey Goodpaster @DrGoodpaster RT @pattynece: @DrGoodpaster A non-judgmental environment is very important! If your patients sense judgment - and they may be hyper aware because of all the weight stigma they've suffered - they'll never open up and tell you the truth about their eating. Been there and got the t-shirt! #obsm |
