I’ve been anorexic for quite some time and I’ve gone through some recovery process to gain back the weight I lost. Now I am a healthy weight and I want to just eat like a normal person now to maintain this weight. Except the only problem is, I don’t know what a normal person eats every day! So can somebody please help me, and just give me a rough plan of how much a normal person eats for each meal and snacks and how much exercise they do, in order to maintain their current weight. Please help!

Ok, so i am in this partial hospitalization program for anorexia recovery. Right now, i am 5′4, 17 years old and 81lbs (i gained a pound this week! which is good, i guess). Anyways, the doctors there want me to reach around 100-105lbs and they see this as an ideal weight. However, i have always been very thin (i have never weighed over 87lbs– i continued to grow in height, but failed to gain weight). The idea of weighing 100 lbs really kind of scares me, but i want to get out of this program so i can go back to school and have my normal life again. I also know in my heart that i need to gain weight, but 20lbs seems like so much. Is 100-105 still thin for my height and age? The idea of gaining 20lbs scares me, and im afraid i will look and feel totally different. I am just really dreading it, because the doctors expect me to gain 1-3lbs a week, (they give you meal plans and calorie increases, but it seems like some of the girls in the program have to eat a ridiculous amount of food) or i will have to go inpatient. Can anyone help me calm down? I’m feeling really anxious and uneasy about all this.
Thanks

Can you give me suggestions? I am 5′1, 92lbs, and 14 years old. I am also a vegetarian, and refuse to give that up! My doctor recommended about 2200-2400 calories per day. I usually exercise 3-4 times per week. Please tell me what time to eat, and what for breakfast, etc. I get full very easily(just to let you know)
