Family-based treatment can return a substantial share of adolescents with anorexia to full remission.¹ See the steady pull back toward food.

A daily log for parents doing family-based treatment at home — so you can see how meal support, co-parent alignment and your own wellbeing are trending, even after a hard dinner.

¹ Lock, J., Le Grange, D., Agras, W. S., Moye, A., Bryson, S. W., & Jo, B. (2010). Randomized clinical trial comparing family-based treatment with adolescent-focused individual therapy for adolescents with anorexia nervosa. In a randomized controlled trial, family-based treatment produced full remission in a substantially higher proportion of adolescents with anorexia than adolescent-focused individual therapy at 12-month follow-up.

Every meal is a negotiation that looks nothing like a meal. You've learned to hold a plate while your child cries. You've learned to be the person your child is furious at by design. Then the next morning, you wonder whether you said the wrong thing, held the plate too long, not long enough.

Recovery is made of months of these dinners. But your memory is storing the worst thirty minutes, not the slow climb. If you can't see the climb, it's easy to quietly back off the approach that is actually working.

“I can't tell if dinners are actually getting any easier.”

Progress in eating disorder recovery shows up in tiny shifts — a slightly faster finish, fewer substitutions requested, a less charged silence afterwards. Day to day it all blends together. Over weeks the direction is real.

The Timeline turns your daily check-ins into a trend line across weeks and months. You can see whether meal support is getting easier, whether alignment with your partner is holding, whether your own capacity is recovering — without ever having to log a single number about food or weight.

“I don't know which part of what we're doing is actually working.”

You're running many things at once: firm plates, scripted responses, post-meal routines, therapist homework, your own coping. When a day goes well, you don't know what earned it.

The Pattern Engine cross-references your daily entries to surface which inputs correlate with calmer meals. Example insights might look like "meals are easier on days when both parents are present" or "afternoons are harder after missed snacks" — drawn from your own logs, not ours.

“She's never looked at me like that before. I don't recognise her.”

The anger, the pleading, the cold stare over a piece of toast — those are the illness talking, protecting itself. Remembering that mid-meal is almost impossible without something external to anchor you.

Perspective Shift cards deliver short, research-backed reframes at the moments you need them most. Each card pairs what you're feeling with what the eating disorder and FBT literature says about resistance, refeeding, and the shape of recovery — so the thing in front of you stops feeling like evidence that you're failing.

“I'm too wrung out to write anything down tonight.”

Refeeding is exhausting. Any tool that asks you to write a paragraph at the end of the day will be abandoned in a week. The daily check-in is a few sliders and an optional note. That's it.

The Daily Log is designed for parents who have nothing left after dinner. Rate a few dimensions — meal support, alignment, your own capacity — and you're done. Those 30 seconds power the Timeline, the Patterns, and the picture you can bring to the next treatment-team meeting.
