Hey Shawna:
Here's a definition I got off the web:
Compulsive Overeating
Let’s start by defining compulsive eating as any eating out of relation to physiological hunger and satiation. This means that anytime one eats for reasons other than hunger or bringing hunger to satiation, we say that eating was compulsive in nature. Which is to say we all eat compulsively at times (i.e. for reasons other than physiological hunger).
