I don't think your petite body frame has anything to do with your eating disorder - it is about cholesterol in the blood and malnutrition at the end of the day...".This brings up my question. What does cholesterol in the blood have to do with binging? I am 53 and have suffered with overeating/binging all of my adult life and fight it constantly. I've done everything that everyone recommends including therapy but it continues. The 'cholesterol' comment has made me curious. Maybe the reasoning behind the 'cholesterol' will help me.

I think the person just meant that having eating disorders doesn't come down to what you look like and how you act completely.
I think they meant that what matters is how healthy your body is, and they weren't linking that directly with eating disorders.
