is it okay to eat unhealthy during ed-recovery?

[@gabrielaleszynska895]

Hi! Very helpfull content (as always!). I really appreciate your honesty ☺ But I have a question about your social life (during recovery): how did you find going out with friends/spending time outside/making relationship? I am very scared that recovery makes me lonely, because I am in this terrible phase where I feel like eating and staying home is better than... everything. I am terrified that I'll end up completly anti-social... hugs, xx

hello :) i can make a video on that but short version: during the phase with extreme hunger i isolated myself quite a bit and then when my hunger normalized more, i started becoming more social again, meeting up with friends etc. i think taking the time for yourself and eating tons is totally fine and this phase will take an end at some time! sending love, xx

I’m 1,5 years in recovery and I thought it wouldn’t take that long🥹

[@chilltalkswellbeing]

it takes a while, especially if you are not committed 100% and not follow your hunger always

but keep going, it‘s going to be SO worth it, i can assure you! xx

You are not alone! I've also been in recovery for 1.5 years and eat "unhealthy" food several times a day (but in my opinion it's just right for us and therefore also „healthy“). The question is also how much unhealthy food a healthy person eats. I find it difficult to assess this because most people eat restrictively these days…
