Bulimic.......Maybe?

[Phelpsisbetter]

Erm... yea..... I hate my fatness. Well, im 115 pounds and 5 foot 3 but.....my butt.....pokes out so I will make myself throw up after I eat. I don't do it alot tho, maybe 3 times a week? But I hate myself and Its not so serious if its only 3 times a week right?

How old are you? How do you make yourself throw up? if ANYTHING AT ALL (and remember this is not a solution), it would be best not to eat period rather than eat and throw up later.

my advice to you is just start eating healthier. you will lose more weight by eating healthy than by not eating at all

[*-tick tock-*]

yeah plus u may be losing weight..but u can still look the same..just eat right and excersize..dont just throw up after u eat the acids can really mess up ur stomach and ur mouth.

Im only 13. I can't feel good unless I throw it up. I havent been going all that long but its a complusion now and after everything I eat i stick my finger in my throat. Arrgh. I hate myself. Im afraid to tell me Mum. she'll think im making it up or just tell me to stop. a part of me wants to tell and the other half dosent.

Maybe if you told her you could ask her if theres somewhere you could go for help? a proffesional maybe?

You are not Bulemic.

Image this, you walk into the Kitchen, open the fridge door. You start with your favourites first, chocolate mouse, peach cobela, peperoni, lasagne, bacon, tomatos etc you chomp everything in your fridge down, and you've just consumed a weeks worth of your daily needed calories.

You keep eating until your stomach litteraly hurts if you eat anymore.

Now you wait patiently and run to the toilet, two fingers down your throat and it's all back out on display. Your whole fridge contents.

You realise your behaviour isn't normal, but you can't help it when you get the urge you HAVE to eat. You feel embarassed and depressed if someone catches you in the act, and try and cover it up.

That was my little fake case study of someone with bulimia. Thats what life can be like with bulemia, not just eating and throwing it up, but actually binging everything and then throwing it up.

[Phelpsisbetter]

okies thank you. so theres nothing wrong with just puking up meals?

[Ravenous]

Theres still something wrong with that, even if its not bulemia

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

do not do it, if your body doesnt get the vital nutrients it needs, your stomach acids will start to erode the lining of your stomach, and essentially your body will start to eat itself rather than starve

[confusedXfreak]

im new but would your stomache still eat you if you like threw up and you took vitanems?

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

see heres the thing. i always wondered why you couldnt just take a fat pill and a vitamin pill and then never have to eat.... but unfortunately it doesnt work like that. for some reason its not the pure nutrients your body needs but the context in which they are consumed. getting protein by eating a steak does more for you than taking a protein pill. thats just the way things work. taking one teeny tiny vitamin isnt going to make your body healthy because you need SUBSTANCE to live, not jsut nutrients
