What a very interesting blog. Thank you very much for this. I hate to admit this, but this really hits home because - I DID answer yes to almost every one of those questions. :( I've always considered myself to have an eating disorder (although, obviously never diagnosed) - but mainly more an obsession over food. I feel that I've finally found the way I want to live (low-carb) but, admittedly, all I do is read about low-carb living, research recipes and research "healthy living". Sometimes I really do hate it - because I can't enjoy any kind of food that I don't consider "healthy" for me. I know it also really annoys my family, my husband, my friends - when all I want to talk about is my diet. But - I have OCD too and so that, of course, really makes me obsess even more. Anyways.

I want to suggest an anonymous tool from the Center for Eating Disorders for any readers who may have questions about eating disorders. www.eatingdisorder.org/about_eating_disorders/resources/quiz.php. As the most common eating disorders are Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia, this is a good place to get more information on other eating disorders and the right treatment for them.
