After major anorexia that I was medically hospitalized for on & off for almost 4 years I too gained more weight than i had ever weighed before im my life. Then some healsh issues hit along with a trauma & the cancer death of my mom. (Trauma dealt with home care person for my mom)..I lost all but a little of what I gained & ended up having to be medically hospitalized for anorexia for several months.

I promised myself I would never gain like I had..but sould also not loose like I had either. Trying hard to stay at a healthy weight. I don't binge just eat normal but stkll restrict also to sort of ballance..not the best way but has been working. When in the hospital realized that I could stay just ok if I ate at least a little..so I make sure I eat. Living alone & not cooking for self much is hard & not having $ to eat out..its a challenge but it's possible not to stay in the overwright state....think healthy that helps
