I've been in recovery for about 4 months now, and have been trying to eat 3000+ for over two months now. TW I've gained 12kg (from BMI 14-17.9). My pre ED BMI was about 22-23. I also got my period back for the first time in ages last week, and nearly all of my starvation symptoms have gone. I occasionally feel dizzy (it's usually when I've eaten less so I think this might be normal) and I have for the first time in a while experienced what has felt like extreme hunger (I have been eating between 1800-2500, and today I've eaten about 3000 and felt ravenous all day). I was basically just wondering if this is normal and if anyone else experience extreme hunger after being at nearly a normal weight? I feel so lost in recovery at the moment, kind of like I'm in limbo? I'm not sure if I need to gain anymore since my symptoms have pretty much gone and I've got my period back. I will appreciate any advice because I just feel so lost at the moment
