So recently a dietician informed me that most people in ED recovery should be eating 2500 at minimum a day. It’s very hard for me to believe that by eating more I could actually heal my body and eventually loose weight. In fact last year, I ditched a lot of my diet dogma (was fairly paleo) – found Matt’s blog and started eating carbs and gained about 10-15 pounds and have had severe bloating for over a year now.
I’m just trying to get help with the whole calorie thing. I clicked on both those calculators and the first one says I’m at 2140 for my BMR and I think like 3420 for my TEE. So if I want to start loosing weight, what do I need to shoot for Please claify. Also the second calculator listed my BMR at 2500. Can you help me out in all of this.
I’m also trying to eat intuitively – only when I’m hungry and some days I’m just not that hungry and may not be getting even my minimum calories.
Thank you for any help you can give!
