Today I talk about a common fear in recovery: the fear that by eating a lot in recovery, often to beyond the point of fullness, you somehow become "used to it" and develop a habit of "overeating". In this episode I explain why this is not really the case.

"Will I Get Used To Eating This Amount Forever?!"

In this episode I talk about accepting your body in and after recovery, tolerating bodily changes, social media and the trap of comparison.

Body Image

In this episode I talk about rapid and uneven weight gain in eating disorder recovery: what it is, why it happens and how to deal with it. I also answer a listener question about what to do when your treatment team set a too low goal weight for you. 

Rapid/Uneven Weight Gain

In this episode I talk about recovering at a "normal" weight, and remind you that an eating disorder is not a weight disorder! I once again discuss invalidation and eating disorder "imposter syndrome", and how this is a symptom of the eating disorder, not an indicator you don't have one.

"But I'm Not Underweight!"

In this episode I talk about invalidation in eating disorder recovery, both from yourself and from others. I touch upon the fear of not being sick enough, or feeling like you are faking your eating disorder all together, especially when managing recovery.

Invalidation

In this episode I talk about the benefits of increasing your intake in recovery if you're someone on a lower intake. I touch upon the fear of weight gain by eating more (and why the opposite may occur), feeling it's 'too late' or 'too soon', and on the effects of an increased intake in recovery, physically and mentally.

Why You Should (Probably) Increase Your Intake In Recovery

In this week's episode I talk about consistency, and why it is so important in recovery. I also debunk the idea that in order to do recovery, you must always be motivated.

Consistency

In this episode I talk about compulsive lower-level movement; the sneaky ways in which the eating disorder urges you to move and avoid rest. If you struggle with sitting down doing nothing or catch yourself taking the longer route to the shops, this episode may be for you!
