    So, I have seen it explained a couple of times on Eatopia and I think on 180 DH as well. Even after a year in ED recovery I still get this weird high from being hungry. I have just recently gotten some hunger cues back… even a growling stomach!! But, I wonder if I will always get this hungry high even when it isn’t really useful anymore. When will my body know and trust I am freakin feeding it?

    I would think you’ll always get the hunger high, and that it will be more intense the better-fed you are. (We get re-sensitized to adrenaline after keeping it low for a while, so spikes in adrenaline that cause this effect become even more powerful).
