I'm a recovering bulimic & stopped purging but struggling with my meal plan. i'm on a maintenance plan--why am i gaining weight? i don't want to gain.

Maintenance plan?: We'd need to review your maintenance plan in detail to answer best. Does it include exercise and consistent sleep? What specifically are you eating (processed foods, or healthy lean proteins, veggies, fruits, good fats like olive oil, avocado, etc)? Are you drinking alcohol? Were you underweight when purging? All can affect your outcome -- please discuss concerns w/your doc & nutritionists.
