IF you haven't found professional help you, I recommend you do so.

Bulimia and other eating disorders such as anorexia are very difficult diseases to overcome, your best hope would be to have a trained professional help you out. Of all the girls I've known who suffered from eating disorders, they only got better after they got professional help

I have to tell you that an eating disorder is hard to pull yourself out of by yourself. You need a strong group of people to support you and keep you on track. www.something-fishy.org has tons of eating disorder hotlines listed and you should definitely call them [Sorry if the site link thing isn't right. you may have to google it] You need to tell your best friend or whoever you may trust.

But if you don't feel comfortable about any of those above, here are my suggestions:
Accept yourself. Don't think about those celebrities whose job's requirements are to stay skinny. In time you'll realize that you're perfect the way you are and that you shouldn't harm yourself to achieve something that will kill you. If you have the urge to purge, go outside, sit around people and get involved in conversations with them. To stop binging, you need to control yourself first. Eat moderately with a snack in between meals. EAt healthy foods and what not.

No one on here is a nutritionist or get give you the professional treatment that you need to hear. So I really suggest you call one of those hotlines and talk to someone on the phone. Get further suggestions and ideas from them and go on from there because professional treatment is crucial.
