(CNN) -- Iranian-American journalist Roxana Saberi is doing fine since being released from an Iranian prison, but won't be giving any media interviews until she leaves the country, her father said Tuesday.

Reza Saberi, her father, said they plan to leave Iran soon.

Saberi, 32, was convicted last month on espionage charges in a one-day trial that was closed to the public. Accused of spying for the United States, she was sentenced to eight years in prison.

Saberi went on a two-week hunger strike to protest her detention, but ended it last Monday after her parents pleaded with her to stop, her father told CNN.

At one point during the hunger strike, she was hospitalized and fed intravenously, he said. She has since put on some weight, he added.
