I've done both. When I was restricting I couldn't go above a certain amount, but now I have been counting my calories for the right reasons. To ensure that I reach a certain amount to gain weight. For me it has been a very helpful tool during recovery. Knowing how much I need to take in and making sure that I do is like my job right now! No other kind of meal plan has worked for me, but that has. It's a common sense/ no fail plan. If you research how much you need to gain, and how many calories that will take each day, then make sure you get it, you will gain weight. <br /><br />I think the hardest part is commiting yourself to actually doing what's necessary to recover. I tiptoed around it for many many months until I took the leap. If and when you want it, you'll be able to find the strength!<br /><br /><3 ToriTorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07562573569007096603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4792871902317373397.post-60992107785815870752010-09-02T04:46:59.046-07:002010-09-02T04:46:59.046-07:00Hey Danielle,

I can totally relate to the body image distortion- that is my biggest hurdle in overcoming my ED for good. We just have to believe that if we keep following our meal plans and working hard in therapy and adjusting our thinking, satisfaction with our bodies (and a realistic perspective) will come with time! Keep up the good work!Boston Femmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11772762440931811261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4792871902317373397.post-26051803393807888152010-08-31T23:32:04.446-07:002010-08-31T23:32:04.446-07:00Hey there, first time commenter here.
