How can someone recover from anorexia without gaining weight, or minimizing weight gain?

What she needs to know is her RMR or her Resting Metabolism Rate. This is the amount of calories she needs to eat to neither gain nor lose weight.

First of all she needs to look at this chart to see what her frame size and what her ideal weight for her height is.

Now she needs to figure out her RMR.

(9.99 x weight in Kilograms) + (6.25 x height in Centimeters) - (4.92 x age) - 161

You can use Google to convert the units. Just do a search for...for example, "100 pounds to kilograms" and it'll give you the answer.

So let's say that for an example we have a girl that's a small frame and is 5'7 inches tall and is 20 years old. She should be 123-136 pounds but she's only 80 pounds. So she needs to gain 43 pounds to get back to healthy weight.

So her weight in Kilos is 29.9 and her height in CM is 170.2

So to plug in the numbers it's...

(9.99 x 29.9) + (6.25 x 170.2) - (4.92 x 20) - 161

(298.7) + (1,063.75) - (98.4) - 161

Giving us an RMR of 1,103 calories per day to neither gain nor to lose weight. This is a healthy amount of calories to keep her body going.

Now since we don't want to put on fat we need to be careful here. The best thing for her to do is to exercise. To gain healthy muscle mass which if she's anorexic she's likely lost a bit. So she needs to get into an exercise program to help build her body back to healthy levels. She should see a doctor first as to what is a good starting program for her.

So in the case of the girl above she gets out her bike and starts riding. Now she's exercising which burns calories. Say light effort for an hour. That'll burn at her weight level 218 calories roughly. That's a 218 calorie deficit from her RMR diet. Her body needs those calories to build the muscle mass needed to do the exercise and has to pull it from somewhere.

If you're in need of losing weight, you let the body pull that from the fat reserves but since you need to gain weight you need to supplement the calorie intake. So we go from 1,103 calories per day to 1,321 per day and she'll not gain any fat but will supply her body with what is needed to gain proper muscle and organ mass.

If she does this gradually, she can take a year to get beck to healthy weight but even while she'll still be underweight she'll still be eating the right amount of calories needed to sustain her health while she's doing it.

She really needs to see a doctor and maybe a nutritionist to help her get started and to monitor her while she's getting to a healthy body again, but this is what our doctor came up with and it really helped my daughter when she was underweight and recovering from anorexia.

@Additional - Ah! You didn't specifically mention that. I thought you wanted her to get back to eating healthy without gaining weight too quickly. My bad.

In that case the best thing to do is to find out her RMR, find out the calories she needs to neither gain nor lose weight and to come up with a balanced meal plan that supplies that number of calories.

So going back to my example of the 5'7 20 year old, and she's at her healthy weight (we'll call it 130 or 59 kilos) and that would give her an RMR calorie daily requirement of 1,394. So as long as they don't eat more than the RMR requirement, they're not going to gain weight and will still be eating healthy.
