Thankyou so much for all your help , it really makes me feel positive that i am heading in the right direction , as i do and will find it hard to trust putting food in my body until it becomes natural again through routine.I do find it hard to believe that i need that many calories , as i dont think i have ever eaten that much and have gained weight in the past , so i find that difficult to deal with , it makes me believe people maybe lying to me just to make me eat , but again like you suggested i have never given my body time to get back to normal , i have always restricted so maybe my metabolism just wasnt given the chance to adjust , because as i am finding now , i am so hungry all the time and i have lost a little weight since i began to eat again , but it happened last time i attempted to recover and it soon settles down , i guess it,s just the effects of initial refeeding , not sure why it happens but it does.Thanks again for you advise and support , i will be regularly checking back to log my progress , so far i am managing to eat 1100 calories from the 800 i was eating so im upping gradually so as i can deal with the emoutions of re-introducing food again.laura.x
