No psychiatric medication simply "cures" anything. The olanzapine simply increased your appetite.

Zyprexa is sometimes used to lessen/stop intrusive thoughts. I'm no expert on eating disorders, but from what I've read about it it usually goes together with a lot of eating- and self-esteem-related intrusive thougts. Maybe that's also the case for you?
