Hi, I hope you nice ladies can advise me.
My DD1 is 20 and in her second year at University. Her first year was awful and she became anorexic.. weighed 6 stone (at 5 ft 8) when she came home. We got help and she recovered well, but she started to binge eat and put on weight very rapidly.
This year has been great..she is happy and settled and I am very relieved..BUT she is a LOT heavier.. about 2 stone over her pre anorexia weight and she hates it.. she is doing lots of exercise, loves the gym, but wants to lose about a stone just to feel more herself. She continues to struggle with binge eating (no purging) .
She will be home for the summer next week and she has mentioned maybe joining a weight loss group. She isn't massively overweight.. she is about 10.5 stone (she was naturally about 8.5 before it all went wrong)
Could she join a group ? I have no experience of this, but thought that maybe having group support might help her in her struggle not to binge eat, even to she doesn't need to lose lots of weight. I think she looks fine, but I do understand that she doesn't feel right in her body at the moment.
Thanks:)
