I'm trying to overcome my eating disorder of 3 years. Its been about 2 weeks so far that I've been eating normally yet I feel much hungrier than I did when I was starving myself. Is this normal?

Yes its normal. Your natural cravings are returning and that is a good sign. Keep a diary of what you eat every day. Make sure you eat enough from the "good" food categories. Also if you think your eating too much then you will have a reference to go by. If you are between meals and you have hunger pangs then try drinking a glass of water till you get a chance to eat again. If you had a eating disorder then your body is now sending normal signals and that is a good thing.
