    i was also told that milk consumption helps tremendously because it goes down easily, less chance of throwing it up, is digested rather well, and has a lot of calories.

    is that correct?

      i’d say 90% of that is going down easily, it’s not got anywhere near the calories of a slice of bread and i mean yeah it’s easy to digest because it’s largely just sugar water with some protein and fat.

      i would imagine one of the ideal things to force down is just peanut butter, that’s pure fat/protein/carb paste and a spoonful of it is more calories and nutrients than many many glasses of milk, and because so little of it is needed that means there’s less to be felt in the stomach.

      Cant say since I fucking hate milk lol. The staff did have meal suppliment drinks on hand for us. But after the initial not dying of an eating disorder calories wernt the importaint part, it was getting us to be able to eat “fear” foods without a breakdown. We had actual nutritionists there that actually broke down and taught us how food reacts in your body and actual science of needing energy from food

      I loved the staff there and my group but unfortunately the staff was temporary due to covid. I learn from a friend the place went back too being “therapist bullies you for being mentally ill and then your released being more scared of sugar” :'(
