Im always grateful Im not prone to piling on weight because I have a very sweet tooth.

I still say it's a cop out. If having to buy bigger clothing, seeing your clothes size go up and having to buy larger sizes isn't an obvious clue .... then I don't know what is.

That's the heartbreaker as far as anorexia is concerned. It more than 'give yourself a shake' ... it is so far mroe deeply rooted than that and it's an incredibly difficult illness to recover from (and maintain recovery from).
