In undergrad, I had sisters come to me with issues like that. I didn't freak out, hover over them or watch their every move, and of course I didn't tell anyone else if they didn't want me to.
I always made it a point to tell them that while I can be there for them if they want to talk, I'm not a professional and they ultimately need to seek professional help if they want to get better.
I'm now a counseling grad student, and I can tell you that while your sorority sisters can listen, they aren't professionals and they don't have the skills to help you get better. Only a licensed professional can fully understand/treat an eating disorder and help someone recover from one.
