i can definitely relate to you about those horrible racing thoughts, Lisa999. though mine weren't about food... my thoughts centred around the meaning of my life. for example, i'd be laying in bed, freaking out about how much time i've wasted, feeling all this pressure to decide on my career, but still feeling at a total loss as to what my greatest purpose is, etc. etc. also, i got a lot of anxiety around my pulse... it had slowed to 40 beats per minute and i was obsessed with waiting for next heart beat... it was a bit nightmarish, and i ended up having a few panic attacks.
