A member asked:

Teen daughter- disordered eating, lost 12kg, hospital. wt regained, increasing, eating well. out hospital 4 wks- how long wait to train again (run)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ask treatment team: It sounds as though your daughter is experiencing a significant & serious eating disorder. Based on that, 4 weeks out of the hospital is not a very long time. Excessive exercise is often a part of the disordered eating behavior, so it is important to be very careful about re-introducing exercise. It would be a good idea to talk through the timing with her physician, therapist, and dietician.
