I found a very good site
I hope it's ok to post this here, but I came across a site called findingbalance.com. There are videos you can watch for free that discuss various aspects of ED's. It's Christian based, but I felt very comfortable there as a non-Christian.
Here's part of their mission statement:
Who We Are
FINDINGbalance is a faith based health and wellness organization with an emphasis on eating and body image issues. We are also the first national organization dedicated to creating consumer awareness and understanding of EDNOS (Eating Disorders Not Otherwise Specified).
Our Mission
To proclaim a message of love, hope and truth to all who are in bondage to eating and body image issues, that they might find freedom to love themselves, and others, without condition--and fully embrace God's purpose for their lives.
We Believe...
All disordered eaters, regardless of the severity of their struggle, deserve to have resources available to them to help them learn about and overcome their struggles with eating and weight control.
Food and weight obsessions are addictive, and left unchecked can affect all aspects of our lives.
By being honest about our struggles with food, we eliminate the isolation of secrecy and shame.
Finding freedom requires examining and addressing all areas of who we are: emotionally, intellectually, physically, relationally and spiritually.
It IS possible to break free and to experience a much richer life than disordered eating allows!
None of us has to do it alone - God's help is available to guide us on our journey to freedom.
Why We Focus On EDNOS
While we offer comprehensive information and resources on all types of eating disorders, our founding purpose was to shed light on the staggering number of people who struggle with what are often called "non-extreme" types of disordered eating, such as chronic dieting, exercise obsessions and compulsive over-eating. These are categorized clinically as EDNOS (Eating Disorders Not Otherwise Specified).
