Recommendations for comics about eating disorders

I adored Abby Howard/Sarah Winifred Searle's Unhealthy. I would loved to read more comics (of any length) about people dealing with body image issues/disordered eating/related topics.
I also found I Do Not Have an Eating Disorder to be really powerful. It feels like the graphic memoir/comic format really fits these stories. Are there any other comics/zine/webcomics about eating disorders (particularly bulimia/binge eating disorder) that people could recommend? And this may be a long shot, but any comics on GI issues would be wonderful (if they exist).
I will happily welcome book recommendations, too, but my attention span is so shot I find comics easier to engage with.

Comics involving GI issues:
- Guts by Raina Telgemeier
- The Hospital Suite by John Porcellino
- The Crohn's Saga (webcomic) by Hoot Deconstructed
