Hi Jamierae,
Have you seen a doctor or an eating disorder professional for help? In terms of your boyfriend, you could start by saying that you have some things in your life that you have not known now to cope with, and you have been trying to cope by doing certain things with food....(whatever that is). Or you could explain to him that you don't feel good about yourself, and you thought that by dieting you would feel better, but that it got out of control. Be honest, that's the most important thing, and ask him if he is willing to educate himself about what you are going through, and if he can support you in getting help. Please seek help, even if your boyfriend doesn't quite get it right away! Take care ?
