Extreme Hunger with Amalie LeeExtreme hunger can be one of the most frightening, confusing, and misunderstood parts of ED recovery. As coaches, we hear so many clients say they’re scared they’ve suddenly lost control — especially in a culture that constantly pathologises hunger and appetite.To help challenge this, we’re joined by fellow recovery coach, podcast host, and founder of Let’s Recover, Amalie Lee, to unpack what extreme hunger actually is, including how restriction — even subtle or mental restriction — can keep it going. Drawing on both her professional work and lived experience of anorexia recovery, Amalie shares a compassionate, evidence-based insight into the biology of starvation, rebuilding trust with your body, and why this phase is far more common than people realise.Topics covered: * What extreme hunger is and why it happens in recovery • The difference between extreme hunger and binge eating • Fear of “never stopping” or feeling out of control • Rebuilding trust with your body after restriction • How mental and physical restriction can prolong hunger • Amalie’s personal experience of extreme hunger • Doubting the recovery process and what helped her keep going • Why extreme hunger can fluctuate during recovery • What hunger and fullness can look like long-term after recoveryFor more info or to sign up to the Rewired Community: https://rewiredinaction2.carrd.co/Connect with us: Amalie Lee Instagram: @amalielee Instagram: @letsrecover.co.uk Website: https://www.letsrecover.co.ukMeg Instagram: @megsy_recovery YouTube: Megsy Recovery TikTok: megsy recoverySafia Instagram: @safia_edrecoverycoach Email: [email protected] Website: https://www.safiaed.comEm (copywriter & editor) Instagram: @em_schoneTallulah Self (podcast editor) Instagram: @tallulahself[DISCLAIMER]Please keep in mind we’re not medical professionals, and the podcast content reflects our own experiences and opinions, as well as that of our guests, so it shouldn’t be taken as medical advice.
