no, not really. i've had unhealthy attitudes towards food, but it never really escalated into a fullblown eating disorder. :x
i mean i've told her that the way she thinks about food is unhealthy (in nicer terms than that haha) because she talks about how restricting herself makes her feel good, basically. and she agrees with me, but she's still really upset with how much she weighs so she doesn't want to stop focusing on exercising/eating habits.
i responded above as well, and in that case maybe see if you can focus on how eating regularly is much healthier than restricting, restricting can really mess with the way your body processes food and can slow your metabolism to a crawl. maybe suggest having healthy meal cooking nights together or something, and especially if she agrees with you that her thinking is getting dangerous, so you can associate food with good healthy eating for her?
