What's the best recovery from anorexia?

Answer #1

Follow a proper balanced diet with adequate calories to build your weight up to the ideal for your height, age and gender.
. I recommend that you aim for a balance of 50% calories from complex carbohydrates (e.g. potatoes, rice or pasta); 20% from protein (fish, meat and pulse vegetables) and 30% calories from fats. . Organize your meal times to allow 4 meals - breakfast, lunch, dinner, and supper, and try to eat in company as often as possible, so that they can encourage you to persevere with the higher nutritional intake. . Allow yourself to eat a light snack (e.g. a piece of fruit) between meals to help restore your body's ability to tolerate regular digestion of necessary nutrients.
. Get adequate exercise and fresh air to maintain your appetite, and help rebuild the atrophied muscles into a more normal robust structure.

Answer #2

I would not get advice from someone online. I would go seek therapy. Anorexia is a mental illness. Eating a balanced diet is not going to solve the actual problem. If it was that simple, everyone would just come online and figure out how to eat in a healthy way.
