Diet Update | Increasing to 3,000+ Kcal

Today I'm covering:
  1. How/why I eat 3,000+ kcal per day (diet update)
  2. Why "binge eating" in recovery isn't really binge eating at all
When I first entered into anorexia recovery, I gained on much less than I need now to even stabilize in weight. However, as my portions continued to increase and my calorie intake was no longer restricted, my body got used to these new portions and continued to require more and more in order to stabilize or gain. I repeat: THIS IS NORMAL. I am no special snowflake.

More details, stories and advice/tips on eating disorder recovery are to come in my upcoming book -- all questions are welcome below and WILL be answered within its pages. In the meantime, share this video with friends and let's pass 1,000 subscribers! Take care! :)



(PS. If you are having trouble with increasing your current portions, check out some of my earlier videos and vlogs, make your own nut butter spread, or include Fortimel drinks (see my favorites HERE) into your daily meal plan. Any other tips are also welcome in the comments section)

      The sequel to Just Perfect will hopefully be out within the next year. The other book I mentioned will take a bit longer 'till completion because of the enormous amount of research (and digging back into my old journals, too!)
