When you come from a restrictive past your hunger cues are messed up. You can feel full and not hungry. But it doesn't mean you are now done with recovery and ready to follow intuitive eating.
You likely still experience many physical and mental starvation symptoms and do not even feel fully recovered.
So the "feeling full and not hungry" often just means that eating disorder and restriction have lowered your metabolism and digestion so everything you eat just moves slowwwly in your body so you get less hungry and feel full much quicker.
And when you continue to eat less than optimal you won't reach full recovery.
So what to do in this case? Find out in the video!

![3 Reasons You Always Want To Eat Even When Full [& How To Stop!]](/img/tr.png)
I'm very thin and my stomach is growling. But I'm not even hungry, and I don't feel like eating.
Same and whenever I tell my parents they always say that it's nothing and that I'm overreacting even when I'm not
Same I am like never hungry anymore occasionally I will feel like really hungry and then I will eat my three meals I am so used to skipping lunch and dinner. Sometimes I will head to the fridge and eat and I am not even hungry., because I am always skipping meals and working out more I am starting to think I am fat and i think I need to loose weight so I look up ways to loose weight. I am so scared that I am going to have an eating disorder like anorexia or binge eating disorder. Does anybody have any tips on how to pervent an eating disorder
@@mackenziedevincent674
How to prevent an eating disorder?
Keep away from peer pressure.Loosen up your minds from any bad thoughts.Eat normally as an average person should.Consult psychiatrist for help or advice.Have a guardian or somebody to keep on watch of your actions.

Fu king yeah 😂😂 why ?? Have you got your medical??
I always get easily hungry before but now I'm always full
Same here.
Same! I went vegan last week and this week I feel so full?
Same ...
I used to overeat my whole life but last week I got covid and I have barely eaten and don’t want to eat anything...
Exactly
I feel constantly full, I know that I'm not hungry and don't need food. But I can't stop thinking about food, even through I don't want to I will binge (have to say that eating don't give me any pleasure), during the meals I always tell to myself 'you will eat after this meal anyway' my mind is not satisfied during the meal and this is hurting me so bad. I wish i could just be hungry at the meal's hours, and not being obsessed with food.
I'm struggling with the same, I feel like I am obsessed with food and constantly just have to eat something, and while I eat I always know that I will eat again very soon even though I don't want to, I can't control it...
@@cocatezz in fact I am heeling to this shit, I did a work on myself and learn before all to love myself and my body. Then I tried to enjoy food and see it as a vital stuff and not a compensation thing. I swear life is too short to struggle with that kind of suit. Try your best to live happy and healthy sis
@@JayFilia :( trying sis, thanks for responding - makes me feel a lil' better about myself
hey! it's been a while, how are you now? because I'm going through the same :(
do you keep thinking about food all the time?
I always feel hungry. I just don’t like the feeling of being full.
I just feel sick before eating and after like it makes me not want to eat
Same
I can’t eat... it’s been 3 days... I can’t eat?... I’m so full I could throw up, but I haven’t eaten..?😐
@@sushiisthebest9217 Me too but that happens after I eat but then later on in the day I'll eat again
@@tecklafurro2040 yeah, i feel better now though! hope your ok :(
@@sushiisthebest9217 its 3rd day i can't feel hangry like i am always full , i seen a doctor i am gona make some tests, did you guys find out what was the problem about that?
I'm eating only 1 meal a day because in my brain I know I need to eat to live but I'm never feeling hungry... Just thirst
I want to say thank you. Thank you for coming back to help people and share your knowledge. You could also juste want to burry your ED in the past and never yen back. But you stayed, and you help us. You saved me and you’re still saving me. How king you are to accept to have to think about ED again, which is definitely a hard memory, in order to help us. Thank you.
Im glad to help! to me helping others have only recovered me more and install this healthy mindset :)
thank you for sharing this!! I've always struggled with understanding my hunger, its great to know that feeling uncomfortable is normal an it doesn't mean that we are eating "too much". thank you xxx
yes its definitely normal, hunger cues are so weird in recovery and it takes time
This video was exactly what I needed. I always think I'm eating to much, and go back and forth with the thoughts of when do I listen to my "hunger cues" and not, or should I stop eating now because I feel full, or I think I'm full, but I haven't eaten what I "should" eat etc etc. I'm gonna think about what you said in this video when all these thoughts come up. Thanks again Elisa ❤️
This is just what I need right now. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this information, looking all over the internet to find an easy answer to my problem. I started 6week challenge, and following 1.75 meal nutrition plan and do exercise 5/6days for 45-60 min weekly. Am completely full, can’t look at food even, and no interest of meals that made me happy. Not craving any sweet nor meals. I get nausea for forcing food and want to throw up. I do get stomach ache here and there!.
thank you for making this video!
thank you
I don’t have any eating disorders I was just wondering why I eat one bit of a meal a day and feel full
That's some kinda eating disorder itself. I'm there too.
Thanks for the helpful video! I find myself not feeling hungry. Even when I wake up I'm not hungry.
I’m going thru a very very hard breakup and it started when I realized the ex moved on so fast and I was trying to keep her but she wanted to move on and was falling for someone else.....I would eat all the time none stop until I was full full and now I barely eat a tiny bowl of food a day....and for me it doesn’t feel like I’m hungry at all and sometimes I only eat 2 spoon full of food and that’s it. And for my body and me it doesn’t feel like I’m hungryz
Are you feeling hungry now? Please reply
Solution: get a girlfriend
You're a gem. x
Ikr I’m kinda suffering too. It’s like I’m not hungry when i wake up, but i feel hungry after a workout, then i feel too full after eating and i feel like throwing up
Me too
The first 1:48 seconds of this video literally enlightened me.
Now I think I know what's happening to me, but I would love it if you told me what you think, and if what I'm about to say makes sense to you.
So, I've been having eating disorders since I was 11. Now I'm 16. It all started when I decide to lose weight, I started losing 2, 4, 8 and then 10, 15, until I lost 22 pounds. I kept seeing food as the enemy. I was never really hungry but I didn't really notice it cause I was just focused on eating the minimum amount of food possible in front of my parents. I got over this sickness. Then I fell into the "not eating enough " period again. Then I Recovered, and then I fell again. This went on for quite a long time. During the last 8 months though I've been great. I had started eating again, with pleasure, sometimes also pretty hungry.I had also started gaining weight.Fact is about 3 months ago my appetite started decreasing until I completely lost both appetite and hunger. What I think is my metabolism really slowed down due to all this chaos I caused to my body by eating so little and then recovering and the again eating little again etc.
Therefore, when I started eating more again, my body was still not used to it. I am eating a good amount of food everyday now, Also if I don't feel like eating at all, I Force -feed myself everyday.I feel like I can't digest and metabolize the food I eat. I reckon I really messed my body up. What could I do?
Hope it helps!
idk why i just don't enjoy food anymore
Its been 4 days and I haven’t been craving anything I’ve ate 2 full meals within those days I’ve looked everywhere whats up with me /:
have you only eaten 2 meals in 2 days? That’s way too little. I eat about 5000 cals everyday but nothing I eat tastes good, nor do I have any cravings. I force feed myself
Literally the only thing that I crave rn is chocolate milk. I don’t crave any other item. Not even foods that I haven’t eaten for months bc of my ed, just chocolate milk.
Hey how are you, what helped?
@@kattregn omgg samee
If it wasn’t for my parents I wouldn’t have ate for a week or two
What if you don't want to tract but not sure if your even hitting the amount?
idk what happened to me. i hate all of my delicious food now. and whats worse is that my parents judge/gaslight/make fun of me for my eating habits. and i am never hungry. like i can eat 1 piece of bread or drink water and i wont be hungry for 24 hours. ACK
i will dream about food and look on uber the eats etc. Then when foods in front of me i feel sick and full
How can I when I’m not hungry though? I hate forcing myself to eat.
When I eat I get full really quickly
I ate one toast today at 11 am and it‘s currently 10 pm and I am not a single bit hungry. I hate it I just keep loosing weight.
Hello Thank you so much I am only 9 years old and i think i have a problem i can eat but i always feel full even if i haven't eaten the whole day do you think i have something wrong?
Aahhh see video oli täiega mulle! Ja nii õigel ajal. Aitäh!🤗
jee! :)
I'm a bit conflicted about the recovery calorie amounts. Are those for weight restoration? I'm trying to recover from my ED, but I'm not underweight. I've been working towards recovery for about a month and haven't been feeling any physical or mental hunger, but I'm doing my best to eat enough anyway. I understand that I might gain some weight as I recover from my ED, but how much should I be aiming to eat (as a minimum) if I'm already at a healthy weight?
I lit eat about 2 bites of somthing and just get full and just feel horrible and full what to do? Can some one please please help i am really struggling so badly i need HELP!!!!!
the only hunger cue i get is strange burning in my abdomen, and weird gas up into my throat.
until i eat a meal. it also hurts after i eat.
does anyone experience this?
what is it, and how do i correct it?
I eat like- not even joking, I counted, 3 bites of food every meal, and I’m full. Yet I’m still fat ಠ_ಠ
Today all I had was 2 crunch bars and full
For some reason I just feel sick all the time and im not hungry but my stomach is rumbling so much. I eat but I used to eat so much all the time and I bearly eat as much now and a lot of the time when i look at food I do feel sick just looking at it. I do suffer from an eating disorder called Arfid but im more on the sensory side of it. I can’t even drink water without it making me feel sick and full straight away
This disorder for me started 2 days ago. And when i eat food, i they are disgusting... however i can drink anything. So can this kind of thing happen?
Same 😭
I drink milk (only that, nothing else) by the morning and feel full for pretty much the rest of the day
It’s just happened to me and I really don’t know why :(
What about in my case.. last Bulimic episode was 20years ago now. My health got ruined before that. Chronic fatigue inflammation digestive issues no appetite leaky gut acne.. etc .. still have not healed my body. Tried so many healing regimes.. still stuck and suffering. 💔😪
Same
It's been 19 hours I haven't ate anything (except an egg) ...and am not even hungry wth
Hi, thank u so much for the information (i dont speak english, sorry for that xd). I started a ed recovery by muy own, and im searching tips for nausea (i feel so full all day, but i keep eating). Thanks :3
i’m doing the same, i’m glad you’re doing better
I usually don't feel hunger pains & have to remind myself to eat. Not that I feel full at all.
Today I didn't even eat breakfast and at lunch I eat only half a stack and already felt full and like if I push myself and eat more that I can ill litterly throw up :(
It all starts when you want to lose weight. When I wanted to lose weight, when I started I had 0 knowledge on how the body uses this energy when you walk, speak, blink, sleep, (just all the things you do basically). I remember it started with a ‘fasting’ method where I would finish eating at 20:00, then 19:30then 19:25, then to the point where I would stop at 17:30, 16:30 and it would be the max I would go.
I then later on got a calorie app where I would track my calories, the first time I put it down I had around 1,350 calories but the app told me I was “over” by 50 calories. Just I was so worried and confused (had also no idea abt the fact I used to walk like 10,000 steps etc) that I worked out and it took away around 80 calories. From there, like around 2 days later I went super down to 900-800 calories, there were 2 days or something in my life where it said I had 0 calories and such. It then made me not feel hungry throughout the majority part of the day.
I really wanted to lose like 5kg, but the max I would lose was around 3-4kg I believe.
In September of 2022 is where I really started to eat better all the way until late February. However, now everytime I even think of food I feel like throwing up (even though I never do).
I obviously understand very well the concept of food etc, I regret the times I restricted food because I had the wrong idea of everything and wasn’t educated enough. Now my main goals were to lose fat and gain more muscle, however me not eating enough due to the cause of nausea and feeling stomach aches, I refuse to work out just as much as I used to because I know it will come with more slower results. 🥲
By the way, I was also frightened because I thought I had all of these symptoms because I was eating too much but I tried to always put in my head that I was eating better (I genuinely think I was). I was and still am just like a littttle bit scared of eating “a lot” but I definitely have gotten better. I hate the fact that probably my metabolism slowed down and now is having hard digestion problems🥲. I also believe maybe about all the mental food I was thinking etc, I would end up eating a bit of sweety things. Now, looking back at that I feel disgusting and I feel like I can’t even eat a bit of chocolate or cookies again.
Potentially if you are fully recovered is it good idea to start eating more "clean" food and cout calories, i don't mean starving yourself i mean enough good calories if you have certain fitness and body shape goals?
Counting calories is something you have to find out yourself if that supports you in your journey of regaining a healthy relationship towards food. For some, counting calories is very triggering and it can risk relapses. However for others, it works fine and they don't get triggered.
As you have certain fitness goals you can try to find out what works for you, but you need to be careful with fitness goals since it can lead you into the next eating disorder or make you even relapse.
I was working in the fitness industry many years and in my eating disorder recovery I tried going back several times and work on my body goals and started to reintroduce counting calories and I have always failed. It triggered me too much and I relapsed.
For now (I am fully recovered for many years) I still love fitness and moving my body, but I stay away from calorie counting and from strict fitness routines and plans (which means I don't train after a plan and I don't set myself specific goals, I just go into the gym whenever I feel I like to and I train the body parts that I like to train). This works very fine for me since it is not too restrictive for me and I can truly enjoy moving my body and eating healthy and give my body what it needs. I would say "intuitive exercising" was definitely the key for me.
I hope that helps you a bit :) Best wishes
i just wish i could eat, i hate my body, im super skinny. i just want to get larger.
me too.
Im not in recovery yet but everytime i try i fell so full so quickly. And after two big meal bcs i binge. I cant eat more. And i feel so bad to feel full is uncomfortable. And is take me after like days for digest the food. I cant. I want eat everytime i try recover like i want eat everything but my body can follow.
It's because your body (stomach) is physically not used to digest food any more. And even your body stops producing enough stomach acid which is a crucial factor in digesting food and absorbing vitamins and minerals.
In your case you will need to start slowly with adding food gradually. It will help your body to adapt to your higher food intake and even to produce stomach acid and gut bacteria again.
Sarah Martinez me too!!! Hasn't fixed itself - been 20years recovered. Feel like I have a permanently broken metabolism on some days.
Can gastroparesis be the cause?
How long can it take for hunger to return to normal... I have had to track my food for over a year now to ensure I get enough
If I don’t track my food And go off hunger I ended up eating under half of what I should be
Do you get hungry at all? Like any hunger cues during the day
do you also follow mental hunger? eating the minimums is not enough, you should also eat to mental hunger. many people eat only minimums but don't eat to their full hunger actually!
Follow the Intuition I don’t get anything 🤨
I don’t even think about food and have to set alarms so I don’t forget to eat
I eat well over 2500 a day but I have to plan it or I under eat
I eat calorie dense foods mostly, nuts and seeds, nut butters, dates, avocado, white rice, liquids, juice etc
And of course some veggies and tofu, soy milk, banana, berries, oats etc
But I still feel full all the time and never feel any hunger mental or physical
I reduced my fibre hoping this may help but no
When will my hunger cues return???????????? I've been eating 4 times a day can anyone share there experience ? I have a appetite I just dont get the physical hunger
you need to listen to your hunger cues no matter if it's mental hunger or physical hunger. Over time you will stop having mental hunger and your physical hunger will surely return. It just takes a bit of time
I made my favorite noodles and I barely ate Idk what’s happening felt like I wanna throw up
Why I always feel so hungry even though I eat at least 2500 calories😭
extreme hunger? you need to eat more in recovery!
2500 is not that much ! Keep going you’re doing GREAT ! ED recovery is full of mind traps, you will fall many times but surely you will learn to recognize what is ED. Stay POSITIVE. I remember my recovery (I’m on the verge of relapsing but I know what to do in order not to) very well. I stayed positive all the time. I took ED as if it was inferior to me (AND IT IS), and every time I would start to binge I’d say “Hi ED, I will not regret this binge and not restrict after so please go on :)” and after I was done I would apologize to my body tell him out and loud “It’s going to be okay. I’ll definitely free you from this. Just hang in there a little more I know you can”, congratulate myself and laugh and fuck ED “Is that all you got ? That actually tasted good. I f**cking swear I will never regret those horrors you make me do and break this vicious cycle. I still got so many things to do in life. First, I’ll deal with you. And then I’ll live to the fullest and save myself.”
2500 is only minimum, most people need more than minimums!! you are normal, but trust your hunger!

Does that mean I'm ed ??????
When I was in grade 10, about 15 years old, I weighed 115 lbs. I never really craved food. Matter of fact, I could go most of the day without breakfast and lunch. My parents were never around and I got up took care of myself all the time. Most of the time when my parents were around, they saw me eat a lot because that time during the day I would eat more portions and they would always make remarks as though I was fat or chubby or piggish because of the way I ate and the fat that I had more fat than muscle. Being 115 lbs with more fat than muscle is quite a difference. I really had more of a need to crave food when I lost close friends and loved ones. By grade 12, I weighed 155 lbs. First year in university, I lost 30 lbs after getting pneumonia and my grandmother died later on. I gained back up to 145 lbs by the end of second year. In my third year, when I turned 20 years old, I weighed 170 lbs after taking birth control to help with terrible menstrual pains as recommended by my gynaecologist. I feel as though I don’t want to eat as much but, my belly grumbles as I am accustomed to eating a certain amount of food in weight everyday. People say I look fat and that I gained weight. I feel pretty bad because I try so hard with my weight and I get put down like this. It is really hard to manage and I don’t want to do it on my own. But, I have no choice because I have no support system.
I decided to join a gym and see if I can loss some of the weight to get to 125 lbs
After i had allergy, i have never hungry, i dont eat all day but still full always save money 😂😂
Fr only had a salad for breakfast and it’s 4:10 now and still don’t feel a bit hungry something’s wrong
i’ve only had a chocolate bar and a little bit of my dinner today, not even half of what i’d usually eat. i’m really scared because i’m skinny as it is, don’t wanna lose anything bc i’d become unhealthy!
i’ve never been anorexic but i never get hungry and i’ve gone almost 2 weeks not being hungry and i’ve been just trying to force myself to eat and i get grossed out when i’m trying to eat and i can’t and i’ve been loosing so much hair recently i’m always cold and i can hardly sleep i usually go to bed at 7 am i cry bc i rlly want to gain weight so i’m not trying to starve myself pls tell me what it is and what i can do to fix this
btw i usually eat 1 snack a day bc it’s the only time i feel like i can bring myself to eat and that’s supper and it’s only been getting worse to the point where i couldn’t even finish one taco the entire day
@@abi-tv6iy same and I can't even eat my favorite food
