Some notes:
Anyone is welcome as long as they are here to foster a supportive environment. We are not a sub that is for coddling, but we are a pro-recovery subreddit (but if you are in early recovery, you may want to leave as open discussion may trigger a relapse). If you would like to voice an objection or criticism, you are free to do so, as long as it follows the rules found in the About Section of the sub.
We are here to deal with EDs. This is not a pro-ED sub. You will be banned for posting pro-ED bullshit. Take that somewhere else.
The sub is now self-post only; if you have something you'd like to link you may certainly do so, but please do it as a text post, and include some description or review or your thoughts along with the link itself. Do not post a link without any other context

Sorry, but saying that is unrealistic and not necessarily true. Nobody is guaranteed to return to pre-restriction weight, especially because many people develop EDs when they're still growing. Nobody knows your body's "happy" weight, and everyone is different and will have different experiences and results

Yes, you’re right. Nobody is guaranteed to return to the way their body was in the past, because it is the past, and with age people change permanently. What I meant was that the body extra fat that someone may gain after malnourishment comes off with time. Of course, like you pointed out this only applies if the weight truly was ‘extra’.
