[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 659625, member: 41816"] There's a point, when you fast, where you feel better, cleaner, freer, without the heavy claggy burden of food. Its a kind of euphoria. get to that stage, and people around you often try and feed you. they don't believe you don't want to eat. (been there, done that, and the t shirt virtually wore out). My experience of that was not anorexia. It wasn't about control, body issues and food being available but rejected. instead, for me, it was 'thank heavens I feel OK. Euphoric. Relaxed. Makes a change from the misery of high and low blood glucose!' Oh, and I'm also a type 2 diabetic who uses diet and a bit of exercise to control things. no meds. So, like others before me, I can agree type 2 can be controlled by diet, but I can't comment on anorexia - except that people observing my eating 20 years ago might have thought I was anorexic, but in retrospect, I definitely wasn't.
