Given the potential impact of desired weight on normalization of eating patterns and weight restoration, we examined the relation between desired weight and ED pathology in youth with AN or BN.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Participants were 340 youth presenting to an outpatient ED clinical research program. Height and weight were measured, and youth completed the Eating Disorder Examination. Desired weight was operationalized as \u201cdesired weight percentage\u201d (calculated as a percentage of expected body weight [EBW]) and \u201cweight difference percentage\u201d (actual weight minus desired weight, divided by actual weight and multiplied by 100).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Youth with AN desired to be a lower percentage of their EBW than youth with BN (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001).

Desired weight percentage and weight difference percentage were associated with greater ED psychopathology, controlling for ED diagnosis, age, and sex (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>s\u2009&lt;\u2009.001).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Desired weight is associated with elevated ED psychopathology.
