Gf hasn’t eaten

So me and my girlfriend had prom tonight and for some background she did have a very serious run in with what doctors said was bulemia but she didn’t exactly fit that description she just had a generally very unhealthy relationship with food and eating and was regularly showing bulemic symptoms like throwing up, binging etc. she has since been recovering very well and has come a long way but still tracks calories occasionally most of the time she does not and when she does it’s not much like 13-14 hundred a day, she has been way more comfortable eating out together and seems to be genuinely excited to eat sometimes rather than see it as a problem and she rarely throws up intentionally anymore but she did recently for the first time in a while about a week ago which could play a part in the story.

So we had prom today and a couple of days ago she told me she wasn’t going to eat for the next few days so she looks good in her dress and I strongly suggested not to but we don’t live together obviously and she is her own person and as much I say not to she can do what she wants so she ended up not eating anything but a little watermelon for the past 2 days before prom. When we got to pictures she told me and repeatedly told me she felt like she was going to faint. When we got to prom I got her to eat a few pieces of pasta and got her some water but she spent the majority of the time sitting at the table and said she couldn’t get up, finally I decided that this was becoming a big problem and we should go get her some good food as the proms food was absolutely disgusting. We ate at an all you can eat sushi restaurant but she didn’t eat any sushi just soups and some meat to keep it gentle on her stomach and she ate what I would say was a small dinner so didn’t eat a crazy amount of food given the ayce. After that we went home to my house and she changed took her hair out and we were laying down and relaxing for a bit because she really didn’t feel good. About 30 minutes into that she said she felt sick to her stomach and went to the bathroom to throw up. The whole time I was there with her and the first time she started it intentionally but the rest was just from actually being sick.

What I need help with is what to do about it in the future I’ve figured that suggesting we eat was what probably made her sick but I don’t know what to do. Just looking at her before she was about to pass out and I suggested getting food which I think may have been too much. What do I do in this situation in the future?
