first of all bulmia is not a disease it is a mental thing, you cant have it you use it. but it is still serious people have died from it. bulmia is some thing that people(particarly girls) do in order to lose weight. it wont work. your body is smart it knows what to do if you use bulmia or anorexia it will think that food around the area is low so it will cling on to every thing you eat. you will actually gang weight also dont smoke to lose weight it doesnt work and whose telling you to lose weight i suggest if its your friends you find new ones.you should exercise and eat healthy that doesnt mean eat less just eat stuff of nutritional value. also dont try to lose it all at once a healthy amount to lose every week is 1-2 lbs.(2-5kgs). and dont think that you have bulmia cuz you dont you choose to use it.

other than psychological things, like low self-esteem, and a constant body-bashing cycle, it's also really, really harmful to your health. if you end up throwing up hard enough, your can tear your esophagus and you might end up having surgery. you may notice little black specks when you throw up. this is not food. it is actually really hurting your stomach and esophagus. and of course, you are basically not really eating. just because you eat something and immediately throw it back up, that doesn't mean that your body is getting the vitamins, nutrients, and calories that it needs. if you go from being bulimic to normal and back and forth multiple times, you can actually do some serious damage to your heart. by fluxuating from a healthy body weight, to a dangerous body weight, you are weakening your heart and you could actually end up having a heart attack. please stay healthy!! =]]

throwing up a lot can rot the lining of your esophogus due to the stomach acids. then you might get a hole in your esophogus and my grandpa died because he had a hole in his esophogus and after six surgeries they couldn't fix it. stomach acids will also rot your teeth so that even if you brush your teeth your breath will still smell. the stomach acids are meant to stay in your stomach, not come back up so leave them there. its really not worth it. i'm sure you were beautiful before you lost any weight. if your friends dont know about your bulemia then tell the one you are closest to and have them help you stay focused on losing weight a healthier way. im sure you'll feel better after a good workout then you would after throwing up.

i send you a sincere good luck with everything

There's a web site on bulimia. I found lots of good information on it.

I think that you should consider counseling before trying to lose anymore weight. Bulimia is very unhealthy and is the worst way to try and reach your weight goals.

There are millions of other ways to lose weight. But first, you need to overcome your illness.

Some suggestions for losing weight in a HEALTHY way:
1) Exercise with a friend. It makes going to the gym fun and the two of you can sort of "compete" in a fun way to reach your goals.

2) Eat what you want, but know how to tell when you are hungry or full. Chew every bite at least 15 times and stay conscious about what you are eating. Meaning, don't watch the TV or anything while eating. Stay focused on your food and listen for when your body is full.


Good luck and get some help. You don't have to beat bulimia alone.
