Daughter's Anger after First Appointment with Psychologist

I hope you can help I am at my wits end.  My daughter has had her first meeting with the psychologist at the Eating Disorder Clinic.  She hated her, is full of anger and is saying she made her feel fat, talked of weight gain and made her feel bad as she binges twice a week on chocolate.  She says she doesn't want to recover because recovery  means weight gain.  She doesn't seem to be able to cope with anything in life.  She has such distorted thoughts, thinks she is fat and is so depressed and anxious around food.  She also has to eat the same things every day at the same time.  She also does two hours of yoga per day and walks the dog for an hour.  This illness has taken over her life.  After seeing the Psychologist she is now wanting to lose more weight has cut out diet coke and cups of teas.  She's worse now than before she went.  My daughter has had anorexia for one year plus and disordered eating for at least 3 years.  Is this reaction normal.  I can't let her cancel the next appointment.  We have waited so long for this appointment.  I never thought this would happen.
