Atypical Anaorexia or Not?

Hey there 🙃

So basically, I had severe Ana when I was 15 and was inpatient for some time. Fast forward. I'm now 31, BMI wise I am overweight (almost obese, although everyone tells me I do not look like it). For the last year or so i have been restricting my calories on and off. But the last few weeks in particular it's been particularly bad. I went 6 days with no food at all. Before that I was ensuring I ate less than 500kcal per day to try lose weight. I was losing around 1.5kg per week but then it stalled. I can go one week where I restrict big time or completely starve myself and then another week I will eat "normally" (maybe 1 main meal the whole day. which could be a takeaway full of calories so not really a binge as such). I then feel so so guilty but I don't purge or anything:/ ...

I am so depressed about how I look, I body check constantly, I am obsessed with my fitbit and my steps and ensuring I burn at least 2500kcal per day. Most days, like 6/7 days, I don't eat a single thing until like 5pm, and I maybe have 1 snack per day at most. But my weight loss has completely stalled!

I spoke to my GP and she said It sounded like I had atypical anorexia. Especially considering my history etc. I have referred to ED team but there is a HUGE wait list here in UK.

I am not convinced this is atypical Ana. I think it sounds more like just bad habits or something. What do you think?
