Hello! I thought i would help you out by providing some weight disorders for you.

Weight disorders
The DSM-5 proposes the following as weight disorders: anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, pica, rumination disorder, evident/restrictive intake disorder, other specified feeding or eating disorder and unspecified feeding or eating disorder. The three most common eating disorder are anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. anorexia nervosa is characterised by low weight, fear of gaining weight and an intense desire to be skinny and heavy food restrictions and limitations. Bulimia nervosa is characterised as an eating disorder with two parts; eating excessively large quantities and then purging (vomitting or taking laxatives). Binge eating disorder is characterised as eating excessively large quantities without purging afterwards. The references below you may find useful with further research! ref: Grilo, C. M. (2014).
