Recently been diagnosed with ednos, however not underweight yet (20yo f, 5"2 110lbs). is it normal to still feel cold all the time? i thought that only happened with severely underweight anorexics?

Not unusual: It’s not surprising that you feel cold, even though you may not be severely underweight. People suffering from EDNOS still have the same risks as those with anorexia or bulemia including nutritional deficiencies and a lower metabolic rate as your body is trying to conserve energy, - and one of the consequences of this is a lower body temp. It will be more noticeable if you lost a lot of wt.
