Am I getting an eating disorder?

Home More advice Health

I've always thought I was fat but recently my feelings of self hatred towards my body are becoming stronger. When my last boyfriend dumped me in october was 8 stones. Just over maybe. (I was 5 foot 1 and still am now)

I thought that he dumped me because I wasn't good enough. Too fat. Too ugly. I've lost just over a stone in weight, and by april ish I weight just over 7 stone.

But now I'm becoming obsessed. I constantly check how many calories are in foods, and I've done it so much I've memorised some of it. I don't want to eat some foods because I'm terrified of I'll get that fat again, and if I eat just a tiny bit of chocolate I feel so fat and disgusting.

Some days I think 'great, I look fine! My stomach's nice and thin' but on others, which is most of the time, I despise my fat stomach and legs.

I know inside I'm not fat at all but something in my brain is telling me that I am and that I've got to lose weight or people won't like me.

I really don't know what to do. I'm exactly 7 stone now
