My Fiance has an eating disorder.

Hello, my fiance has an eating disorder and I've vowed to help her any way I can. She rarely eats, if at all..and when she does she purges. She's had this disorder for 25 years and it's almost killed her (she was admitted to a specialized treatment center for a period of time). I told her that she is not dealing with this alone anymore, that I am with her every step of the way. She told me she'd like to be part of a support group, and since there is no Eating Disorder Anonymous that I'm aware of, I figured I try online to find some place where she can maybe get help from others like herself.... I'd appreciate if anyone could direct her (and I) to any chat rooms or support networks, etc. that are online. Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

There are hordes of sites that dealwith this issue, and the underlying issue of emotional eatiing...have not personally been to any except the ones on my site which is www.shrinkyourself.com.
