[quote=Anonymous]I've started having people I know say things like, "I'm worried about you", "There's such a thing as purging through exercise instead of making yourself sick", and some straight up say "I think you have an eating disorder".

I do tend to worry about food quite a bit and if I end up eating extra one day, I'll try to burn a few hundred extra calories (the normal "active calories" I burn during the day according to the Apple Health app is around 1,000 plus or minus 100 depending on the day and on weekends can reach 1,200 or more).  Is it actually an eating disorder to try to burn off excess calories like this?  I admit that some of my behaviors don't exactly feel healthy but isn't it normal to not want to lose the results you worked so hard to get?  I'm terrified of gaining weight.

On top of this, I have had a lot of people in recent months say they're jealous of me.  They wish their body looked like mine.  I'm hot.  That sort of thing.  It feels like all my work has paid off.  I look better than any time in my life, including when I was a teen or 20 year old.  Obviously I don't look like I have an ED.  Does it sound like I have one to you?[/quote]
