would you maybe do a post on gaining weight when you are already in the healthy range? Maybe because of age, strength training, or just fluctuations? And how to mentally avoid relapsing because of them?
At the moment i dont really have time to write a full post about this - though i can if anyone wants me to later on. So i thought instead i would link to some old posts which might be helpful and answer your question :)
Fear of continuing to gain weight after reaching a healthy weight
Healthy set point
Weight gain while strength training
How to cope with weight gain
How to deal with weight gain
How to maintain your healthy weight
Accept your weight gain and love yourself
Disproportionate and rapid weight gain
Stress of weight gain
Overcoming weight barriers (question)
If i look big now, how will i look when i gain even more weight
Fear of weight gain and reaching goal weight
Binging and gaining weight after weight restoration
Weight distribution and how to gain weight (old post)
It is also important to remember that weight fluctuates all the time. From morning to night you will weigh more and during stressful times or during that time of month for girls you often weigh more due to water retention. DONT focus so much on the scale, its better to focus on health and happiness rather than getting attached to a number. Because you cant stay a certain weight forever.

After a 5 year struggle with anorexia (with purging tendencies), depression, self harm and over exercising I have now been recovered for 4 years and i use my blog to help others in the same situation i once was. I am now a happy and positive person who wants to inspire those struggling to choose recovery and to take control over life and happiness again!

Life without Anorexia
My life at the moment is completely different to how it once was. I spent 5 years sick with anorexia nervosia and depression as well as struggling with self harm and overexercising. I spent 2 years in different treatment centres.
And since 2012 i have been declared healthy from my eating disorder.
I have been blogging for 7 years, and my whole journey is written in my posts. I now represent healthy and happiness. I want to show anyone struggling that it is possible to recover, no matter how hard it may seem.
I now blog about recovery, my life, veganism and positivity!
If you have any questions leave them in the comment section as i am much quicker at answering there, otherwise you can always send an email: lifewithoutanorexia@hotmail.com

thanks izzy these are all really helpful posts, i am struggling so much with eating more and gaining weight, i have so much anxiety. i feel I'm up against all sorts of barriers, i want to gain weight to get better but seeing my body change and the numbers on the scales is all too much and so i feel stuck and don't know what to do. i just wish i could let go and say goodbye to ed for good
