[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just keep an eye on it. Becoming vegetarian and then vegan was definitely the way I was able to hide my ED from friends and family for so long. [/quote] Same. My family was vegetarian for years so that wasn't triggering or bad, but I definitely used veganism as a way to be sure that I could eat under 1k calories a day and remain pretty virtuous in the eyes of others. Like, yeah I'm skeletal and missing my periods, but you're in favor of animal cruelty! Other people eat trash and I only eat good food! I was NOT alone in this in my teenage years, so while I would be supportive generally I would watch for this. On the other hand, I have a vegan cousin who seems to live on Oreos, Fritos, and potato chips and is overweight. Seems very unhealthy to me, but is not indicative of a starvation tactic. [/quote]
