Is anybody else here self-recovered/recovering from an eating disorder?
Surely I can't be the only one? Any advice for how to ignore feelings of guilt and 'wanting to go back' after reaching a healthy weight? When did everybody get their period back? I've been a healthy weight for almost a year now but mine is still absent?

Recovered from restrctive eating and trying to keep on track
Hey I'm Hannah :) Basically I'm self-recovered from a restrictive eating disorder (most likely Anorexia Athletica) but I though I was over-eating, so I joined MFP.. And it turns I'm NOT over-eating, but I'm going to stay on here to make sure I hit my target cals without exceeding them :) Luckily, I'm fairly active so my…
