Q. When a person falls into it, how long does it take before that person can be diagnosed as having an eating disorder?
Bob, I beg to differ. Sure there's a lot of psychological feeling to it but it's not based on your example, which would be considered a "gene" or "hereditary." Eating disorders DO evolve in people for different reasons, not because they either "have" and "gene" or do not.

A. First of all "Bob G" who is ment to be a 'top contributer' obviously knows nothing on the subject. There are such things as eating disorders. Otherwise why have numerous "Eating Disorder Clinics"
And well depending on the type of eating disorder, for example, to be diagnosed with anorexia you need (for girls) to have skipped 3 consecutive menstrual cycles, and also need to be under 85% of your expected body weight (if your expected weight was 100lbs, you would need to be under 85lbs)
For bulimia, the 'binge and purge' cycle needs to happen at least twice a week.
But for EDNOS which is Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified can be diagnosed nearly as soon as the person develops these habits. EDNOS means that the person may be showing some signs of anorexia but not be underweight, or not have lost their menstrual cycle. OR they may be showing signs of bulimia, but only binging and purging once a week.

A. I would think that it is obvious that you WILL get diabetes at the rate that you are going. With all the information out there(radio, t.v., newspapers and the likes) you should at least listen to them. If your weight is what is causing the problem then do something about it. If its your emotions look into what is causing the problem too. Binge eating is just the tip of the iceberg something is causing this habit. Once you have that under control then the weight will come down and with a little bit of help from a correct diet and some exercises to begin with, later you can improve on that. Your life will be better and so will your social life. Don't wait too long or there will be no turning back.
