Unhappy Is this an eating disorder or am I just weird??:( - June 29th 2012, 06:31 PM

Hey, so basically, I usually only eat bland food or when I know exactly what's in it (not like calorie counting, i mean the actual ingredients). Like I can't eat spaghetti bolognese because there's tomato in it, I don't eat any baby animals(lamb, veal, vension etc) but I can eat chicken as it's plain. If something has a weird texture I won't like it either:P If I don't want to eat something but try to, I gag and feel like I can't swallow it. My parents always say I'm too fussy, but how do I explain that I feel like I'm literally about to choke if I eat it? It's a weight issue as well I think, I was very underweight in primary(anxiety from being bullied) but put on weight when I moved to a different school at the start of year 7. I'm not overweight, but i'm not toned, and I sometimes feel, if I eat too much, that it will affect it. I don't eat very healthily, as the food I know I like is things like chicken nuggets, cereal, chocolate:/ I hate trying new food in case it makes me gag but I'm not sure if that affects anything?? I've been slightly anorexic before(my parents didn't know) but it went away. Now and again, if my parents force me to finish a meal, I'll consider making myself throw up-never have though, it's just because I feel so awful. That's another thing-I don't eat much-I eat waaaayyy smaller portions than my younger sibling, and I don't know how much I'm meant to be eating:L any hep/advice??? :/ xx
