If you’ve been told to “just eat when you’re hungry” in recovery and it’s not working — this episode is for you.

In early eating disorder recovery, your hunger cues are often unreliable. After months or years of restriction, your body adapts by turning down hunger signals or sending them in chaotic waves.

The stages of recovery no one explains

Why mechanical eating is often necessary

When (and how) to actually begin trusting your body again
