Hello I hope you are doing better at this time. I feel that what you are doing is an eating disorder because you feel that food is unnecessary, possibly due to the fact that before you ate too much and not eating will balance out the over eating. If you tell your therapist, your therapist can help you retrain your way of thinking about eating, and turn eating into a more positive thing in your life. I am going to leave you the number for the National Eating Disorder Association if you would like to call them 1-800-931-2237.
for information. There is a diet on the American Diabetes Association Website to tell you what a normal diet should be per day. ( type in meal planning and follow the screen).Actually seeing what a normal meal is per day, may help you see that you can be healthy and still have some of the foods that you like to eat. Maybe you should have an eating buddy to go with you to eat, or that can come over to your house to eat, so that it forces you not to be alone and revert back to negative eating patterns. This puts the focus on food being a more positive issue in your life when you are eating with friends and eating in a pleasureable environment. I hope the best for you take care Soidhonia
