Is over-microwaving things a common anorexic food ritual? ever see that before?

No: Not that I have ever heard of. I will say that many microwavable foods may not necessarily be very nutritious. It is best to try and eat whole fruits and vegetables and grains, including some fruits and vegetables that are raw-every day.
