As someone with an eating disorder, how do I deal with people asking me for weightloss tips?
I’ve lost a total of 100lbs with my eating disorder and recently a few girls that I went to high school with and some people in my neighborhood have been asking me about my weight loss and to give them some advice on losing weight. I don’t feel comfortable telling these people about my eating disorder. How do I handle this?

Answer by Ellie Clayton
I have an eating disorder too so I can relate to this situation. I can get why you wouldn’t want to tell someone who you aren’t close to about your problems with food. I normally make a joke when people ask those kinds of questions, it makes the situation a bit calmer.
