And fasting is effing hard.

I am glad you posted. I feel the same way because I don't have 7 chickens hidden under my bed.
Maybe that is why a lot of people aren't writing on here. Perhaps people think because they couldn't be on a TV movie - they have nothing to contribute. Frankly, I feel all alone not knowing exactly how to treat food as un-important as I used to. this constant fixating on it - first thought in the morning, nearly last at night. Sneaking so I don't make noise to the fridge. Counting the minutes until it would 'seem normal to others' for me to go back in the kitchen. Being annoyed if someone sees me getting food as if they are judging me. I think about food way more then I used to. Probably at least once every 15 minutes if not more.
I hope everyone who views this posts. ED are very common. We need to be comparing our experiences to help share knowledge, and the understanding that we are not alone.
