Scared I'll gain weight if I start eating normally

I’m used to eating 400 calories a day and I’m Freaked out. I know if I’m ever cured from my problem and start eating more calories like normal, I’ll severely gain weight! If I go up slowly everyday and go up 100 a day or something will I be okay and not gain weight? I’m so scared, I’m afraid more than anything to gain weight and I feel overweight as it is, and 5 more pounds to top it off won’t make me feel better.

Answer #1

Take it slow… Your metabolsim is dead, so you will have to slowly increase your calorie intake.

Raise it by 100 for a couple of days, maybe a week, and then raise by a hundred and continue.

Before the year ends, you’ll be eating normally…

Answer #2

you will most likely gain weight, because it sounds like your body has been starved. There is no way to get around the damage you have done, the only thing you can do now is start over and become a healthy person from now on. Don’t be frightened by this, just eat right and healthy and do what flamesxofxdespiration said.

Answer #3

yeah I’d agreed with raising you cal’s slowly…every wk or soemthing. good luck.
