Answers:
Get help. Eating disorders are bad business, and you haven't "Come too far" you've gone too far. You're damaging your body by not eating, and if you don't end up killing yourself through malnutrition, you're going to spend the later years of your life reaping the "rewards" of your disorder: I'm speaking as someone who watched a loved one die of esophageal cancer after years of bulimia (in case you're not aware, repeated contact of stomach acids to your esophagus can do damage that makes people prone to esophageal cancer. EC has a less than 17% survival rate. It's only one of many ways)
Tell your parents. Let them get you help. Let them help you before you move away and have to deal with it on your own.
go grocery shopping and pick out healthy food for you
Tell them the truth and get it over and done with and i bet they will probably support you
One plate of food will NOT make you fat. Especially if you don't eat all of it. Eat in small proportions and say you're full. Make conversation and be pleasant with your family and they won't notice when you don't eat that much. And an eating disorder? Those are awefull for your body. =\
suggest a healthier restaurant, or pretend to be REALLLLY sick so many you don't even have to go!
ive had the same prob as you. i would suggest faking sickness. it works for me. eat something SMALL during the day and claim it made you sick. try to get out of going, or at least not eating.
Tell them the the truth and be pleased to them. They are your parents they will always think good for you.
