A coworker tells you over lunch that they’ve stopped eating carbs.

Your cousin falls silent at the dinner table to log their meal in a weight loss app.

And your best friend texts the group chat that they’re hitting the gym to “earn” the brunch you’re meeting up for later.

Scenarios like these have become normalized, but they’re all behaviors that a growing number of healthcare professionals consider signs of disordered eating.

For many, it’s difficult to know when habits — particularly those that diet culture has labeled “healthy” — fall into this category.

This is especially true for people who don’t match the stereotypes surrounding eating disorders, such as People of Color, men, and people at higher body weights.

But whether you’re experiencing disordered eating, dealing with a full-threshold eating disorder, or just hoping to improve your relationship with food, resources and support abound — no matter who or where you are.
