I don’t enjoy food anymore. Help me start again

I’ve completely lost my way with food. I just don’t enjoy it anymore unless it’s something that’s not good for me like a takeaway or meal out but then I get the awful guilt. I am in recovery from bulimia and so far It’s 5 months since I was last sick.

i need to find my way with food again and find good healthy food that I enjoy. I don’t enjoy salad anymore. It feels horrible in my mouth - which is crazy as it’s all I used to eat.
I struggle with the texture of meat depending on how it’s cooked but I think I can get around this.
I like soups and casseroles but can’t think of anything else.

at the moment I’m living on toast, crackers and the odd chocolate bar. I’m at a stable weight but need to put on a few pounds to get back into the healthy BMI range.
I’ve got no energy or motivation to exercise. I walk my dogs the minimal amount I can get away with and I’m just really miserable with it all.

if I can get meals back on track I really think I can get back to my old self.

Please help me with basic recipes or ideas. I’m turning into toast!

Can you start with some toast+ as a way of getting you back in gradually? Scrambled eggs on toast? Followed by some fruit?

These bean burgers are really simple. You just blitz everything up, shape into patties and fry. The recipe makes four but they can be frozen if
you don’t need that many in one go!
Pesto pasta with cherry tomatoes. You could also add mozzarella if you like cheese.
Jacket potatoes with various toppings. I like sweet potato jackets with veggie chilli and also did this recipe a few times in the summer.
Omelettes are quick and easy once you get the hang of them. Easy to adjust depending on how hungry you are, and great for using up odds and ends. This is one of my favourite recipes to get you started!
