I have a weight in the normal range. If it is my set point weight, I honestly have no idea since I have battled with anorexia since I was around 8 (now 23).
Though my concern is that I experience extreme hunger. So "extreme" that it actually gets me sick. Like last night, I had chocolate and ice cream for dinner because that is what I felt like, but then I was awake for hours during the night with extreme tummy ache and acid reflux ( I will also mention that I have not had chocolate or diary for over 2 years, so it may also be related to that). I will be honest and say I am scared of gaining "too much". No matter what that is haha. But is it normal to have extreme hunger even though I am not underweight? Can I really trust it and can I really always eat as much as I want? Even when i am weight restored? (I know a lot of this is ED talk but it is so rooted in my mind because I grew up being told these things. It helps me to hear other peoples output so I am not alone with this silly voice).
Thank you for your time and help!
