The investigators have developed a new model for the treatment of obesity, called Regulation of Cues (ROC), which is based on Schachter's Externality Theory. This study will compare ROC with Cognitive Behavior Therapy for individuals with Binge Eating Disorder. The investigators will recruit and randomize 120 male and female Veterans with BED and subclinical BED with comorbid overweight/obesity, provide 5 months of treatment and follow participants for 6-months post-treatment. Participants will complete assessments at baseline, mid-treatment (week 9), post-treatment (week 20), and 6-month follow-up (week 44). This study will be the first to contribute to a body of literature developing treatments for BED and overweight/obesity in the Veterans Affairs (VA) and/or military health care systems.
