Eating Disorders research

I'm doing a research paper on eating disorders (based on the fact that they are a widespread problem.) I know a lot of people here are pretty knowledgeable about this type of thing or have access to materials. I was hoping someone could recommend some sources of information to me detailing consequences of eating disorders. I've got signs and symptoms down pat and I can find statistics of people affected on my own, but I would love to find some interesting articles, books, etc on the consequences of eating disorders. I hope that someone here has found something useful.
The three that I am focusing on are anorexia, bulimia, and binge/compulsive eating. I got two books from the school library already, but I need at least three more sources, up to eight more. Keep in mind that this is for school, so the sources must be reputable and solid. Thanks.

I've always thought this was a pretty accurate description of life with an eating disorder, found it Deviantart years and years ago:
