I, too, had a tremendous appetite when I could finally eat again.  I was months away from my wedding and had purchased my dressed months prior.  I had already had it altered once and they had to take it up and then I started gaining weight!  I was terrified that my dress was not going to fit!  It was a weight roller coaster for a couple of months...I had lost 20 lbs. in detox and then gained it all back plus 10, then lost the 10 plus 5...end result...my dress (which was strapless) kept slipping down while I was walking down the aisle...just enough that I noticed.  LOL

I remember my first meal when my appetite returned...I was an anorexic looking 118 lbs. (that's pretty skinny for me) and my husband took me out to a steak restaurant.  I ate like six dinner rolls, an appetizer, a salad, a huge baked potato and the larget filet they had on the menu...I out ate my fiance by double.  The waitress was amazed...my fiance and I just laughed...we knew what was going on.

It does get better, I promise.  Your appetite will settle back down, so enjoy it...you've earned it!

I was absolutely starving and ate like a cow for weeks.  Don't worry about your figure, you've got an increased metabolism right now.  I finally have gotten back to my normal appetite about 10 days ago.  Enjoy it while it lasts.  I ate everything on my plate like a real big girl for a while.
