Has anyone else been diagnosed as having low potassium and magnesium levels when battling anorexia?

I collapsed yesterday and was rushed into hospital, tests showed my potassium and magnesium levels are really low. I know I need to eat more but am finding it really hard and the thought of eating a banana freaks me out. Has anyone any other suggestions of foods I could eat that are less scary?

I have low potassium levels but don't like eating bananas either.. I tend to find smoothies an easier options... Obviously ones containing bananas, plus they're really healthy!
