I Think I May Have An Eating Disorder ? Posted: 12-12-07 08:36am
i think i may have an eating disorder ,
but Im not sure
i am still overweight (150lb is a lot on
my 5ft 2 frame)
however
i dont eat a lot a normal day i will eat
600 calories
sometimes i will binge and eat 1000
other days
i can eat 200/300
i get sort of a thrill from knowing i have
the control to do this
friends have expressed concern
but i dont know wether i have an issue
with food
or wether i possibly have an eating
disorder

Things to ask yourself:
How do you feel when you eat more than 600
calories?
Do you know that 1000 is much less than is
normal calorie intake for a woman? How
long have you been eating this little?
Why do you think your friends have
expressed concern?
How has your relationship with food
changed since March?
A few things make me concerned for you,
since they echo early warning signs that I
managed to ignore (I'm recovering from an
eating disorder)- first, the thrill you
get from having control from this. Second,
the very significant calorie restriction.
And finally, that your friends have
expressed concern. Please let me know if
you need direction on finding out more
about signs/symptoms of eating disorders.
It's great to get help early if you happen
to need it.
