Hello dear Anna214. First I'd like to say a big warm WELCOME to Psych Central and everything it has to offer. I am one of the ''older'' members here but I still have eating disorders, it's not just young people this effects, and it's not just females either. I've been through ALL of the known disorders for 33 years and I've also been hospitalised for two of them, anorexia and then bulimia. Now, I basically severely restrict but I've already caused many health issues due to my eating disorders. Yes, as someone said, keep talking to your therapist and maybe you could draw up some kind of goal, or a series of smaller goals. I DO SO UNDERSTAND that you don't like the sense of feeling fullness after you've eaten and that's why it has to come back out. This only happens because you've gotten used to having an empty tum. Yes, you certainly WILL be hungry all of the time because reality is that you don't have anything in it for more than a few minutes. Sounds corney, but the only way out of an eating disorder is to EAT, and let it stay there and let it be your ''medication'' to get well by. I'm sure you WILL find some friends here who'll understand and I hope to see you around this great site. HUGS. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
