For the Love of Nancy can be found on the Lifetime Channel. It stars recovering anorexic, Tracy Gold, and is the story of a young college woman from an affluent family. When her family discovers she has an eating disorder, they attempt to obtain a court order to control her treatment.
Kate's Secret is can also be found on the Lifetime Channel. It is the story of one woman's "perfect" life. What her friends don't know is that she is secretly prone to binging and purging. Her reluctance to seek help, nearly leads to the death of her daughter as well as herself. This Lifetime movie originally aired a few years ago, but they replay it from time to time.
Dying to be Perfect is an HBO original movie. It is based on the true story of Ellen Hart-Pena, a world class athlete and Olympic hopeful, who struggled for years with an eating disorder.
I would keep an eye out on the Lifetime Movie Network. They often have movies on this topic, and many others. There was also a movie on that channel called "A Secret Between Friends" that was about anorexia and bulimia. I think you can watch that one on Youtube. I'll keep researching, and if I find more I'll edit my post.Health Question & Answer

Not sure, but don't abbreviate "Eating Disorder" as "ED", because "ED" is the official abbreviation for "Erectile Dysfunction".Health Question & Answer
