I have been a diagnosed anorexic for about a year now. I know what I should be eating (health and calorie-wise), but have only been having no more than 750 calories a day for the past 5 or so months. I've been staying around a constant 77-78 lbs for the past two months or so. I haven't changed my diet or exercise routine at all. The problem is, within the past two days I have gone from 78 lbs to 82 lbs - and yesterday I ONLY ate 370 and STILL gained. I've been eating mostly only broccoli and cauliflower lately. I know they're fiberous veggies that cause constipation and such, so could the weight gain only be temporary until I make a boule movement? Is it just bloating? Will it go away? Every time I eat I also get an awful stabbing pain in my stomach and can no longer eat. What is wrong with me? Will I be able to get back to my 77 lbs? What I REALLY want to know is HOW is it even possible to gain weight when I'm not eating enough PERIOD, when it takes obviously 3500 calories to gain a pound, while only eating veggies. It makes no sense to me. Please help.
