It depends on the individual. Some people are natrually thin and so will have normal body functions, depsite a low weight / low BMI. Usually, a girl / woman will begin to end menstruating with low body fat percentage or BMIs of below and 18.

With rapid or sudden extreme weight fluctuations, it can take a few months for the period to become normal or to return again.

How can an anorexic return to a normal diet without gaining back all or more of the weight that they had tried so hard to loose?

They can't. When an anorexic person recovers s/he has to return to a "normal" eating pattern. This will make them gain at least some of the weight back. It varries (the amount of weight gained back) based on the person, how much they initially lost, and how much they recover. They would probably be able to return to their ariginal weight (assuming they began at a normal, healthy weight) or return to a healthy weight.


Is there a way not to gain weight back after being anorexic?

Sadly, no. After you loose a ton of weight while your anorexic, your body sort of gets used to the amount your eating and that's how you can sustain that weight. Once you start to eat more, you throw your body off track and will gain weight rapidly (or at least a lot quicker than you lost it).

You might not be anorexic, but you are underweight. You should get about 2250 calories per day until your weight goes up. Slow weight-gain is healthier than the quick kind.

You should focus on eating healthy foods in good portions. This includes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins (like fish and no-fat meats), and low-fat dairy. It is important to recover to a healthy weight by eating good foods, and not a weight gain off of pure fat from junk foods.
