Answers:
You just have to adapt to it I guess!. I know it will take a while, and you will still have to eat with small portions for a long time, but try and slowly work your way up, your stomach can't stretch all at once, just like it didn't shrink all at once!. My friend was anorexic for three years and she has been in recovery for another three, but her portion sizes are still tiny, because that is all she can eat without feeling too full!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Ive sort of been thru this and what helped me was to drink Ensure plus and or Boost drinks a few times a day which was helping me to get more nutrition in without having to physically eat anything and without a lingering "full" feeling!. I drank those plus began to eat a few times a day a small amount of my fave comfort food!. It also helps if you wake and eat something small first thing early morn!. even if you dont feel like it, this will help you to have more of an appettite throughout the day!. Your stomach has actually shrunken, but in time it will return to normal if Www@Answer-Health@Com
i know how you feel i have a huge problem with undereating,
the trick is to eat light foods - banana's are definately not light!. i find they're one of the most filling!. rye bread works wonders by the way!. there's tons of food out there that has enough of what you need but does not expand in your stomach/make you feel full!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
