hey im weight restored if i went up by 100cals every week up to 3000calories will i be able to maintain or gain?/:

If you are truly weight restored you should be eating 2500+ until your hunger cues return.

I dont understand the set point theory like pre-ed I was on the low end of the healthy BMI range and ate whatever whenever, however I feel like if I recover on things like 3000 calories wont I just go over that set point? Isnt that how people get obese by consuming to many calories and that:/?

wow

I EAT 3000+ TOO AND I AM NOT FAT I AM FAB AND FOOD MAKES ME EVEN MORE FAB SO EVERYONE SHOULD EAT LOTS OF FAB FOOD

yes fab

I'm scared of extreme hunger :( It makes me eat loads in a short amount of time then I feel bloated...advice?

...eat?

I'm having a 2500+++(3000 probs) and I ate whatever and whenever. IM SO HAPPY I'll be fat but whatevs anddd you're the one who inspired me to take recovery this seriously and be FREEE SO THANKS A BUNCH WOO

Please can people stop saying 'I'll be fat'. I did it and so did others and we are not fat.

Have you ever been in an inpatient or hospital treatment for ed? Can you describe your experience there?

Horrible but necessary

You are so beautiful without makeup...i think you've become one of those people who radiate positive energy and beauty. (God bless food :p haha)

Aw thank you so much! :)

you're beautiful inside and out please remember how fabulous you are!! because everybody else see's it!<3

Are you ok? I feel like you're acting differently, don't take that the wrong way x

Sorry, I don't mean to be :-(
Just having a bit of a bad day, that's all x

Why is 2000 too little? I feel like anymore and I'll gain sooo much because my metabolism is slow and my set point is quite high

EXACTLY.

I'm confused, I'm maintaining a weight restored body (bmi 20.7 as of last week) on 2000 calories and I still count...? 2500 would probably make me gain and I don't need to gain more.

If you don't have hunger cues and maintain on exactly 2000 you are NOT physically recovered.

But I'm weight restored so don't need to gain (I.e. No starvation symptoms) so won't need that much ?

Stop counting

Is eating 2000 calories a day OK for a weight restored 17 year old?

Counting is not OK and if you still have to count you need 2500+

Oh yeah, right, haha, good to see that we are all people and we are all making mistakes :) But whatever, carbs, fats or protein, all calories are fab, aren't they?

Exactly!

I'm it restricting, if was just saying I'm too full having a sandwich and crisps so might be better having a sandwich and something that's not carbs??!!

You'll feel full on anything?..

do you snack on little things throughout the day not including morning snack/night snack, like spontaneously?:) was this difficult during initial recovery?

I do now yes! It was difficult x

You have helped me so much with excepting myself for who I am. The first time I actually had a day without counting everything I ate I honestly felt like I had my life back again, and you've helped me so much with everything. i hope you have a wonderful life full of happiness and chocolate! ;) ❤️

Yay I'm so proud!

I thought fat is most calorie dense? (TW! 1g has 4kcal)

Yes, oops, you're right!
but 1g of fat has 9 not 4 x

So not have something instead and just have a sandwich in its own? I'm confused xx

No...Don't restrict carbs..?

But if I have crisps with lunch and always way to full, so should I have so,etching instead of crisps that's not carbs?

No.

Is sex as good as everyone says?

Um, I guess it depends! I think if you're with the right person then yes, because it just feels..right? Hahaha that sounded so cheesy I'm sorry! But yeah.

So is it better to eat less carbs and more less filing stuff if I'm trying to eat more? Xxxx

Nope! Carbs are the most calorie dense :-)

Is it weird not to have had a boyfriend at age 16? I am so shy and i feel like boys think I am boring because I am very quiet

Nope! I know people who are older and also haven't! :-)

I can't open up to my therapist it just feels so awkward and I am always scared that she's going to judge me. But i don't have anyone else to talk so how do I change this and talk about my feelings with my therapist (or anybody)

I felt the same but in the end I just said it anyway...they're just a person like anyone else and not to be feared! Remember this :-)
