I don't have any official eating disorder that I'm aware of, but in the past I had an unhealthy relationship to food. The main reason was because more fat=more female pattern fat distribution pre-T, and that obviously makes dysphoria worse. It was hard for me to just eat food or gain a little bit of weight without feeling a sense of dread that it would make me look more feminine. I would imagine that a lot of trans people experience that pre transition.
