71: Quasi recovery: When you heal from an eating disorder but still don’t feel free from body/food chatter in your head

You don’t struggle as intensely with food or your body as you did when you had an active eating disorder, but you still think about your weight pretty often. Sound familiar? A common pattern I see in the disordered eating space is getting stuck in “quasi recovery.” This middle state feels much better than how you used to feel, but you still aren’t soaking up the bliss of being fully free from obsessive thoughts about food and your body. In this episode, I share my own journey through quasi recovery and how you can find full healing too.

I discuss…

What is “quasi recovery” from an eating disorder?
Signs you’re stuck in quasi recovery
How it feels to look recovered on the outside but still obsessed with food/body on the inside
My own journey through quasi recovery into full recovery
Fear of gaining weight to reach full recovery
Do you need to gain weight or eat “fear foods” to recover?
How to move through quasi recovery into full recovery
What it feels like in body, mind, and soul to be fully recovered from an eating disorder
