I've lost about 5lbs in 2 weeks. I'm getting happy with the results (exercising and eating correctly)
But I keep exact count of my calories everyday nowadays. I usually have about 900calories for breakfast and lunch and less than 1000 calories for dinner. But if I feel like I've ate too much during dinner and wasn't able to know how much calories I've consumed, I make myself throw up. I've done that several times. I mean I'm not aiming to be pro ana or anything. I just feel disgusted whenever I'm not able to know how much I ate. (Calorie wise and such)

Forcing yourself to throw up even occasionally can have an effect, first and foremost on your teeth. Every time you upchuck, you're bathing them in hydrochloric acid, which can erode enamel very quickly. It's not good for the rest of your digestive tract either. Inducing vomiting releases certain chemicals into the bloodstream that are hard on your heart, and over time that can do damage.
You are at the point right now when you can make a conscious decision to stop, and that will be the end of it. Do not take the chance that this will be something you can control; every person with bulemia thinks that at the beginning, and a lot of them are wrong by the end.
