what’s it called when you have anxiety around food/ eat the same “safe” foods pretty much every day and stress about your body image but you eat a normal/ healthy amount of calories🥴

The first half sounds like ARFID but I don’t think that’s usually associated with body image

This is also me lol, I’m a nutrition major and I would say it’s disordered eating habits, not a specific eating disorder atp, although that’s just my opinion from what I can tell here, it’s best to reach out to a professional ofc!!

Or maybe it doesn’t count as an eating disorder under tbe circumstances and would just qualify as an anxiety thing? Sounds tough nonetheless

i don’t have a of textures or choking or anything like that (typically arfid symptoms) the reason they are safe foods is because i know how many cals are in them and they are decently high in volume so i can eat more for less calories if that makes sense?
