Hello!
I am wondering if any of you have trouble with eating disorders and body
dysmorphia and if there is any correlation between CD and these
problems. Now that I've been GF for 6 months or so, I have become
obsessed with food, weight, and body image. Is it because I am being
deprived of the food I once was able to eat and now I can't have it, so
I want it even more and dream about it? I never thought of toast as
being a Heavenly food, but now that I can't eat it, I have been
overeating on chocolate and then feeling guilty later. I have
substituted GF goodies for toast, cereal, and oatmeal that I used to
eat.
Does anyone know of any research being done and if the 2 problems are
related? I seem to be on a downward spiral towards food obsession and
body dysmorphia. I work out 7 days a week at the gym and am of average
weight, but I'm obsessed! Is this a typical CD problem?
I hope I am not out of line asking this, but it seems like there is a
relation.
Thank you,
Kelli/Michigan
