I really hope i can help you because i went through the same thing except i was anorexic before bulimic. The answer is not that you should start excercising alot or anything because that may lead to obsessing over that. You should just try to eat things in moderation. Don't restrict your self from any food but at the same time don't go overboard you know what i mean? there has to be some boundaries.I also think that you need to talk to an adult that you trust maybe a parent? this is a serious issue. although you may not see it that way it is ...you need to stop doing that before it's too late.. please seek out some help and if you need anything at all i can answer your questions. i just hate to see anyone go through what i did.

well its not a good thing that your semi-bulimic but i have some ideas for you.

- if your one of those people who knows where all the snacks in the house are then take those snacks and ask your mom to hide them and put fruits and good healthy food in their places
- to make you feel better about eating a lot, excersize A LOT because the more you excersize, the faster your metabolism gets (i thinkk), and the more you can eat
- dont worry about eating too much because you've only got one life and you shouldnt spend the whole thing worrying about weights, live each day like its your last

those are just some ideas..

I went through the same thing a couple of times. Just think to yourself what the outcome will be when you're eating. It helped me a lot to put a certain amount in a bowl and eat it in a room far away from the kitchen so I wouldn't go back and get more.
Also, do things to keep your mind off eating. I don't reccomened watching tv because it's harder to focus in front of it. Try reading a book or meditating. If none of this helps, then ask a friend or family member to try and help you stop eating once they feel like you've had enough. Once you get into good habits, it will be REALLY easy from then on.
It's hard at first but if I could do it then so can you.
