[quote=Anonymous]I had an ED for 20 years, started when I was a teen. I know my judgement is absolutely clouded when it comes to noticing others eating habits. I have a tendency to pick out certain behaviors and jump to worst conclusion given my history. That said, the priority here is your daughter. I completely agree with not talking about weight, body image, good vs bad foods, etc. But it's a disservice to completely ignore any bad habits. Your silence if she skips meals or restricts is a confirmation that it's ok. Ask questions. Why is she skipping? Why is she suddenly saying she doesn't like ice cream or chips?( Not saying that's what is going on, but my "I don't like this food anymore" was one of my first signs of my ED). You can also talk to your therapist about how to bring up these discussions with your daughter. [/quote]
