Need help recovering and learning about anorexia
I am a 16 year old girl who is trying to recover from anorexia. I am 5'3" and I now weigh around 83 lbs. I have been suffering from anorexia for about three and a half months. I now notice that I am too thin, and I really want to get better. I want to gain weight, but its hard to.I cant seem to force myself to eat over 1000 calories a day,whether I am running cross country or not. Im afraid to gain a lot of flabby fat. I also have not gotten my period yet. I have always been underweight, and now I know I am extremely underweight. I want to find out if I will still be able to grow and get my period. I know I am not done growing, and I am really worried about not being able to. Will I still be able to grow and how? How many calories should I be eating a day without physical activity, and while running the cross country season?Please help me!
