Anorexia to being overweight. For anyone who struggled with disordered eating, how did your weight change? At what point were you able to start effectively (and healthily) losing weight?

I had a BMI in the 15s at my worst. I recovered mostly. It wasn’t so much a conscious effort, but I struggled with my mental health and food just failed to be something I could effectively control, and I gained a lot of weight by binge eating and generally just not being careful with what I ate.

I hear a lot about “overshoot” with weight gain/restoration, but I’ve been unable to find many personal accounts. I’m curious about the weight timeline of others who have had eating disorders. I posted here because I know I have to reel in the food party since I’m officially overweight now, and I wanted to know how others approached weight loss.

My weight went from 129 to 143.2 after three days of binge eating, I have heard about edema. My weight fluctuations are kind of...insane, and have always been since I got sick. Does the bloating and fluid retention ever faze out? I apologize if this is the wrong place. Mentioning weight loss generally isn’t appropriate in some of the other subreddits.
