English to Italian Medical Medical (general)
 Binge eaters will have a difficult time losing weight and keeping it off. There is often an underlying stress or unhappiness causing the bingeing. If you are a binge eater you may want to discover the root of your problem and work on it before attempting a serious weight loss effort. A psychologist or your doctor can help.

binge eating is a less technical term for bulimia. (I did research, some years back on eating disorders).

chi soffre di fame nervosa (see below)

"Binge eating" is often translated as "fame nervosa" in Italian, so a person who is a "binge eater" is someone who suffers from bingeing, and therefore someone who "soffre di fame nervosa".

"binge" to do something to excess

I agree with your previous replies. Just as a matter of interest the word "binge" is also used for excessive drinking - "to go on a binge"

Good luck!
