Could be that fact that your body can't handle the new amount of food. About 15min after you eat try working out a little bit, go for a walk or something like that.

Have you been sleeping well? A good sleep is 7-9 hours.
Sounds like signs of restlessness. Especially if you are practicing for a play, doing all that dancing. Your using up all the little energy you have.

Working out AFTER you eat isn't a good idea, usually it's more better to exercise BEFORE you eat, not AFTER.
Either way, I think your body needs to get used to eating this much amount, it may be using all it's energy on digesting this new food, making you more tired, or it may be a health problem, if it continues, I'd see a doctor.
Be sure to have lots of your vitamins too, it may be you're deficient in them from the ED.

Woah? Actually, if I don't eat I get those symptoms, and not the other way around. If I don't eat I will feel feeble, dizzy, tired, fatigued and etc.
But if I consume large amount(I doubt it is way smaller then her portion)
I get energetic and full of power, but of course after a nap :P

Actually, it's common for people with ED's to feel tired, dizzy, etc after eating, I know I did when I was very ill with my ED.
But it's actually seen in those without an ED, my mother gets tired after she eats too.

The tiredness sounds pretty normal, especially after a large meal so I wouldn't worry much about that. The shacking and dizziness are the ones to be concerned about depending how long they last (i.e. minutes, hours, etc...) and how long they've been occurring for (i.e. days, weeks, months, etc...). Seeing as how someone mentioned you have an eating disorder, it could very likely be that what you're eating does not have enough vitamins, nutrients and ions you need because you'd be at a lower than normal level. Alternatively, it could be that what you're eating is incredibly high in these (cant imagine what it is you'd be eating to cause this). For example, in some energy drinks, the amount of vitamins is 300% or more the daily amount and given enough drinks, you do get shacking and probably also dizziness.
I'd say go to the doctors and get a blood test done and blood pressure measured, along with the other ordinary check-ups. If you're very low in the vitamins and such, then get drinks called Boost or equivalents. These have pretty much all the nutrients and such under the Sun and is designed for people who are deficient in these. I'm not sure if they're in Japan but I'd presume if they're not under that exact name, then there are equivalents of it that you could probably find at a local pharmacy or even grocery store.
