Could someone please tell me what you shouldn't do when you have a ED.? For example...my doctor told me to stay away from coffee.,and not to weigh myself more then once a week. Does anyone else have other things you shouldn't do.

don't compare yourself to others, don't look in the mirror with your clothes off, don't count calories, don't tell anyone except those who can help u that u have an ed.

I would agree with rad other than the looking in the mirror part. It is important to learn to accept your body and you can't do that if you are avoiding it. Look at the parts of your body that you don't like and find something that's okay about them. Have fat thighs? At least your skin there is smooth and soft. The more that I look at the wrinkles in my stomach the more I decide that they arn't that bad and arn't nearly as disgusting as I used to think.

There are lots of great websites with lists and things like that. Do a search on help for eating disorders. A great place to start is www.somethingfishy.org. (http://www.somethingfishy.org.) There are lots of great sites and great books at the library. Knowledge can only do so much if you aren't willing to use it, though. Visualization and affirmations are also a good idea.
