[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you define disordered eating?[/quote]

I suppose I was just using that as a euphemism for anorexia or otherwise severely limiting calorie intake.  Obviously, I have an unhealthy relationship with food, or I would not be so overweight. But I am definitely too fond of food to be in danger of limiting my calorie intake to an unhealthy level.  And I do in fact eat fairly healthy (very little meat very few carbs and almost no processed carbs unless I am specifically having a dessert item).  But even if you were eating things like hard-boiled eggs, quinoa, kale salads, etc., it can definitely be unhealthy if you are eating the quantities that I tends to eat. The main thing I needed was portion control and an awareness of which foods have more calories. For example I have really cut down on my intake of cheese and dairy and have started eating spinach salad almost every day, because I like it pretty well and realize now that it is extremely low calorie.  I had just never thought in terms of the caloric cost of foods before. I had only thought about foods is being healthy (to me this mainly meant being a whole food rather than processed) and now I am continuing to eat those whole foods but the ratio of lower calorie vegetables and whole grains versus fruits and Dairy has shifted.[/quote]
