I had an eating disorder, and now I'm in recovery. I'm eating a normal diet, with some extra calories to help me gain back the weight I lost. I'm eating more, doing less exercise, and I'm still LOSING weight!! Two weeks in a row! Why?

Your metabolism must still be pretty high, it's a long recovery process.

Well... I mean, it could be your metabolism, it could just be that your body is acting differently to the new changes...

Or... you had an eating disorder... you weren't eating much.  Of course you're going to drop weight in an unhealthy way... you may have been putting too much strain on your body.

But now, you're eating a proper diet and exercising the RIGHT amount for your body and the diet you have.  Doesn't it make sense that your body may be going through some healthier changes now?

Give it some time, You may start gaining some weight back, but it will most likely be more in muscle from exercise and the like :).

yeah, i agree. your metabolism is adjusting to eating a normal amount. if you dont start to gain weight after a while, you may need to adjust your calories again.
it takes time.
congratulations on recovering, thats great!
