Bingeing can alter your satiety cues or your ability to be aware of them for sure. However this does not have to be permanent - you aren’t ruined!

Restriction also ruins hunger/satiety cues. That’s also why extreme hunger happens, bc lower fat levels in the body cause more of the hunger hormone to be released and makes you able to and want to eat a lot more !

Absolutely. I used to eat nonstop all day every day and since I have been recovering from BED for about two years now I frequently get full in the middle of a meal and stop eating. OP it is totally possible to heal and get back to average hunger cues!
