Bulimia absolutely can kill you.
By throwing up what you eat, you're depriving your body of nutrients that are necessary to survive. It also effects your heart, esophagus, teeth, stomach lining, mental state, stomach acid levels, kidneys, salivary glands, etc... It effects pretty much everything.
And 10% of people that have bulimia eventually die from it's effects.

Yes, Bulimia kills. It can causes a range of chemical imbalances in the body which can trigger heart failure. Hearts attacks are one of the leading killers for bulimic patients.
It can also cause the rupture of the stomach or esophagus, which leads to stomach acid leaking through the rest of the body, as well as lung collapse, internal bleeding, kidney failure, liver failure; pancreatic and ulcers.
Suicide is also much more common among people with bulimia then it is for people who are not. Unfortunately, disorders of thinking often come in packs, failing to treat one can give power to another.
If you know someone who is suffering from this, get them help, even agianst thier will. They aren't thinking straight, and they are risking thier lives.
