The article discusses the author's personal experience with an eating disorder and subsequent health issues. After years of struggling with anorexia, the author spent their 20s developing a healthy relationship with food, indulging in "treats" without guilt. However, this led to a diagnosis of "very high" cholesterol, and the author was told to diet for health reasons. The article explores the difficulty of maintaining a healthy relationship with food in a society obsessed with weight loss, and the challenges of navigating these issues after recovering from an eating disorder. The article provides resources for those seeking help with eating disorders and encourages readers to share their own perspectives on the issues raised.
