worried that I might have developed an eating disorder - June 4th 2012, 01:21 AM

I'm concerned that I might have an eating disorder...last year I lost quite a bit of weight because I was obese, and I'm now at a healthy weight but I still think I'm fat. When I look in the mirror it seems like my stomach is huge and it drives me mad, I hate it! I think about my weight all the time and have gotten a bad habit of putting my hand over my stomach to see how big it is way too often. A few months ago I gained a few pounds due to some hormonal issues and stupid as it sounds I am so depressed and angry about it and spend a lot of time thinking about it and trying to lose weight even though I'm still a healthy weight. I'm really picky about what I eat and there are lots of foods that I won't even consider eating anymore because I think they have too many calories but they really aren't that bad. I won't go clothes shopping anymore only because I went up a size. I have this idea in my head of how my body should look but I don't know if I'll ever be be thin enough and I'm pretty sure I probably wouldn't be healthy if I did. That sounds shallow and I know there is more to me than my looks but I can't help worrying about it. Does this sound like an eating disorder? :/ I don't know what to do...
