What is refeeding? Should I put extra calories in meals? How do I stay calm at the dinner table? What is the magic plate theory?

Eva Musby, our guest on this episode of Strong Enough, tackles all these questions (and more) about the refeeding stage of eating disorder recovery. You might know Eva from her international best selling book or her popular workshops but Eva is actually not her real name! She uses a pseudonym so she can tell her story candidly, on the world stage, and share her daughter’s restrictive anorexia diagnosis.

In this episode of EDFA's podcast series we are particularly focussed on the topic of re-feeding (which Eva breaks down for us, if you’re new to the conversation.) She offers gentle and practical help as she talks us through her most successful tips and ideas about how to encourage and support your loved one using a family based approach.

It's important to note that this discussion is not a substitute for professional advice. Some tips might be relevant to your own situation and others might not.
