Yes, this, thanks. I don't think (or say) veganism is an eating disorder. I think some people who have not fully recovered from disordered eating move on to socially acceptable forms of restricted eating like veganism, extreme clean eating, religious fasting, and so on. Of course veganism involves restriction -- not of calories but of range of what one eats based on ethical considerations. For someone consciously or subconsciously seeking cover for disordered eating, this is appealing and can extend to other forms of restriction (quantity) as well. No need to pounce.

Thanks to Lysonder and Eliza, I stand corrected and seemed to have jumped in feet first, can be a bit defensive about Veganism sorry
