I understand how it can be in a way satisfying to avoid food but the truth is it doest do you any good and certainly is not the pathway to a great figure. Depression is a cruel life-engulfing illness. I hope you can find the will to try and break out of its grasp. Are you already receiving some sort of treatment and is it helping.
If eating is hard how about trying to stick to basic foods and meals you consider healthy - even if it means cooking from scratch? Perhaps it doest appeal but it could be worth it - especially if you have someone to share your meals with,

I have used food as a comfort source, before I became anorexic I would eat and eat hoping to feel better. now I am in a bad position with anorexia so food actually makes us worse. I hope you are seeing someone for help with your depression, it is debilating. are there foods that are easy for you to eat and feel safe with, if so, have them around and eat some at a time until you can eat a larger amount. starving will not be good, it will make you feel worse. hope you feel better, hugss

I can relate to this. I just ate the first meal I have had in 3 days. I am depressed and going through a divorce and am having anxiety attacks. I go buy healthy rich food and cook it and then don't want to eat it. So it sits in the fridge and often ends up in the trash.
I have either gotta find a way to get past it on my own or get help.

Have to say that I am 54 and this is the first time I have lived alone, EVER, since he left. Kids are out and gone too. No one to cook for but me and it has me all messed up.

Get help. Starving shouldnt help. Its not a healthy coping mechanism. Our eating disorders if untreated will get worse, not better, and what used to "work" won't be enough. that's the ugly reality of addiction. We chase a "high" or escape through food (or control over food) that doesnt exist. Its not real.
So get some help. See a therapist, go to an OA for FA meeting.
You deserve to be happy.
