That's a lot of weight (physically and metaphorically) you're getting rid of. I bet it'll feel good to get away from that.

A lot of my disordered eating behaviors/obsessions went away when I stopped looking at nutrition labels too. I had disordered eating of various forms for a little over 10 years, at times extreme and at times all but nonexistent, but if we're going based solely on the last two months I wouldn't meet DSM criteria for an ED which feels pretty good.

The other disorders are much easier to handle when you're not constantly ruining your physical health and digging your mental health further down a hole. It's funny how an eating disorder, or any addiction really, will totally take over your mind and convince you that what other people say is "recovery" is going to make you worse. Nasty liars
