Eating Disorder...
I feel uncomfortable about eating food in front of other people. I feel really horrible if I eat a lot. I'm self conscious about my weight and the way I look, and I want to loose about 10 pounds I guess. A lot of my friends are skinny. I don't eat that much any more, because I don't find myself hungry. It's kind of weird. I exersize when I can. Do I have an eating disorder, or am I just being watchful about what I eat? I don't think I do but I want to know what you think. 15/female. I weigh 128 pounds, so yes I am trying to loose weight if that helps. I'll rate for answers. Thanks.

well I have been in your situation and i know its not easy so yeha pretty much you can eat whatever you want you just have to exercise everyday, and if you really want to keep up with your weight then eat like salads and smoothies and fruit as much as possible and just eat the food you would normally eat as like a snack twice a day and exercise, try a schedule IT WORKS!!! :D

It doesn't sound like it is an eating disorder at the moment, as usually this is a term used for people who either starve themselves or have an eat and purge habit. They binge eat and then either make themselves sick or use laxatives to purge food from the body. I would like to stress these are VERY dangerous ways to lose weight.
There is really nothing wrong with your current weight. However, I would keep an eye on your behaviour. A lot of people with eating disorders state they feel uncomfortable eating around other people.
If you begin to feel a desire to eat less and less or hide your food or make yourself ill after eating, PLEASE seek help. I know what people go through with an eating disorder and I can PROMISE you that whatever you do to make yourself thin just isn't worth it in the long run. So please be careful and don't get carried away.

No, you don't have an eating disorder. You still eat, right? And from what you've said here you don't throw up after you eat. Just make sure you don't get too obsessed with your weight. That spells diaster.
EDIT: I didn't just talk about throwing up. I also mentioned anorexia.
