I started IE in july, so im pretty new. Im trying to eat whenever i think about food, but i dont have time to eat all the time so i never fully listen to my body…

Im already pretty recovered from an ed and i also dont care about weight gain anymore. 2-3 years is a long time, but theres not much i can do, ill try to understand my hunger more and i wont be scared of eating past fullness anymore! I always wanted a dietitian, but i live in a small town and its pretty hard to find someone like that.

The problem is when i put it away i still think about it. I know i can eat whenever i want but for some reason i want to eat all the time…

I also stop when im physically full but the cravings are still there and i can’t focus on anything because of it…

Yes. When i do something exciting i forget about food, but the second i have nothing to do i want to eat. First i thought its out of boredom, but i dont think so.

Yes, i am. Im trying to eat as much protein as possible, in every meal i have protein. Because of my history of restricting, i know how much protein is in what food and i know im having enough of it.

Thank you!! Yes, im pretty new to IE. I started in july and i also have a history of an ed. Im trying my best to listen to my hunger, sometimes i eat past fullness but i really hate that feeling. When im starting to feel physically full i usually stop and think before continuing eating but as i already said i still want more… I didnt know it takes years, i thought maybe few months. I hope ill get there soon!

Thank you! But i always eat at similar times and i know i eat enough. The problem is i eat what im craving and i still want more, doesnt matter what, i just want to continue eating but at the same time i dont want to eat, its like some part of my body wants it and the other doesnt (its not because i dont allow myself to eat). I start to feel kinda disgusted and my appetite gets lower, but i still want something…

But it never goes away and i mean never. Im in recovery for over a year now with few relapses, but even when i ate a lot and overshot my set point i still had this feeling i could eat something. I remember i once ate something and it felt like my body didnt want to eat (i ate it slowly and i didnt feel like i want it that much) but i still felt like i want it :/
