Go for it you only live once

Answer 2

There is no organ system that remains untouched by Bulimia. The illness weakens the heart, lowers bone density,etc .When a girl throws up her food the stomach acids also cause some damage to the throat, the tongue and even the teeth. Its not damaging if you throw up every once in awhile like when you get the flu or something but when one throws up over and over the body will not be able to repair the damage as well and overtime the damage will become worse and worse.

Stomach acids will wear the enamel on one's teeth away; the enamel is what protects the tooth itself and the nerves inside! The taste buds will be damaged on the tongue and they don't grow back. The throat can be eaten away. If you get a hole in your esophagus you can have serious bleeding and even bleed to death if the throat is ripped and damaged by stomach acids.

Of course those are not the only issues with Bulimia. The body still cannot get enough nutrients and eventually a bulimic will lose weight but they will also be wearing out their body and the body will be taking any nutrients it can get for the internal organs. This can cause the hair to become very dry and brittle, the nails will also become weaker. The skin may look drier as well and a bulimic may have bad breath and rotting teeth. It all sounds pretty yucky for a person who wants to look better by being thinner but they pay the price in other areas.

Eventually the throwing up and binging will take its toll on the inside of the body, especially the heart. The internal organs are weakened by little or no nutrients and a bulimic can have a heart attack. Other organs can fail as well. In some cases a woman may never be able to have a child in her life because even the menstrual cycle can be thrown out of whack by too much weight loss.

Basically DONT do it.

If you're really stuck, try going to your doctor and asking what would help. The important thing here is to NOT fall back into old, unhealthy habits, and the doctor can definitely help you with that.

The only advice beyond that that I can really give you is to exercise. Running for half an hour each day would REALLY help you - even walking fo that long every day would make a difference. Good luck!

Hun there is no good reason to do it!
There are so many people that take what they DO have for granted. Especially their health! Ex: I was diagnosed with a serious disease and totally freaked out for a while until I realized that I may not be able to cure it but I can control it so it won't effect my life in a big way. Being bolemic is so very unhealthy and can cause tons of problems! You could end up with serious problems like having to be fed with a tube or worse having to carry a bag at your side for your shitt to go into cuz you messed up your digestive system so bad that it will no longer function! You will become weak and may not look like a woman anymore cuz you will not have nourished your body well enough to develope your boobs properly, boobs are the first to go for females when you lose weight for any reason! If your throwing up all the time your teeth will rot and who wants to see a super skinny person smile with no teeth?!

Many people fear being overweight. Change bad eating habits and pick heathy foods instead or simply cut out soda and limit how much sugary foods you eat. What works well for me is to simply prepare foods differently to make them "healthier" instead of frying a hamberger I broil it in the oven or make it on the grill. I am a major boredome snacker too but I make sure I only have low calorie or crunchy snacks in my house to feed my crunching sensation I crave so that I'm not just sitting there snacking away and watching the fat rolls multiply. It also works to chew gum if your in a snacking mood. I eat lots of fresh fruits and veggies when they are in season but frozen are better than canned cuz they don't have extra preservatives in them which can be bad and add more calories.You can save yourself a ton of health problems too by doing this! Don't think of this as a diet, think of it as a lifestyle change that will pay off for the rest of your life and be something you can eventually give to your future children and their families. Most people follow their family eating habits and I know my family eats terribly so it took me a while to get out of the "habits" that were set for me growing up. Maybe you could encourage your family to change just small things that in return would be a little bit better for you all!?

I'm sorry I don't mean to sound like a preacher but a persons health is so important. I can't think of a single reason to logically want to do something like that. I'm sure your a beautiful person inside and out, so I can't see why you would want to become ugly by puking food into your toilet every day! That would be so discusting. I would rather see a cute little belly peeking out while talking to someone rather than smell their decaying teeth and feel bad for them that they can't make healthy choices for themselves.

Sweetie there are such worse things in life than worring about a little pot belly, besides most guys and gals for that matter prefer a bit of a body and some curves instead of a flat boney broad! Would you want to cuddle up with a skeleton?

Sorry this got really long...
E-mail me if you wanna talk sweetie and good luck in all you do ;)

Answer 5

That probably won't work. Eat a lot of small meals in a day instead of big ones. Try dancing and staying active.

If you eat a bunch your stomach will expand. Throwing up won't make it contract all the way so you might as well just eat food allll the time in very small amounts and just use the rest room a lot. Drink a lot of water and pee a lot.. will flush it all out of your system you could say....

Answer 6

There are much better options. If you really are worried, do a little more excercising then just crunches. I know this sounds a little unbelievable, but sometimes you actually gain weight from not eating... or just not eating at the right times. A big key is breakfast. In fact, it is proven that eating 6 small meals (rather then 2 or 3 huge meals) is a key factor to losing weight. Also, make sure to drink the right amounts of water each day. Plus, a reason not to is that being bullemic can make your teeth yellower and actually it can really hurt your esophogaus after a while! Especially if you're sticking objects down there to help get the process moving. One thing to consider is that you're eating at the wrong times. Try setting a time for yourself to not eat after, say 8:00pm. Eating before bed is always a bad thing, because you're not getting much movement while you're sleeping. Even furthermoreee... bullemia is VERY DANGEROUS!! The loss of potassium and other minerals from bulimia can lead to heart problems, and even DEATH!! There are much smarter ways to lose weight.

Reasons not to!! (Good ones!) It causes...
- irregular heart beat, heart failure, low pulse and blood pressure
- dehydration, low potassium, magnesium, and sodium
- constipation, irregular bowel movements, diarrhea, cramping
- irregular or absent menstrual cycles
- depression, anxiety, dizziness, shame, low self-esteem
- swelling or soreness in your cheeks
- cavities, tooth enamel erosion, gum disease, teeth sensitivity
- sore/irritated throat, ruptured esophagus
- fatigue
- stomach ulcers, pain, stomach can rupture
- abrasion of knuckles, dry skin

Do you really want to do this to yourself? I hope not! And if you are, please try to at least help yourself. I don't want to see anyone do this, especially when there are alternate options. If you don't want to seek professional help, or want to keep these thoughts private, then try to help yourself online at: www.howtobeatbulimia.com. Don't be afraid to put your name and email in that little section where it asks- the next page they bring to you is loaded with information and ways to help yourself! Please do it! For me! (even though you dont me! haha)

Answer 7

A good reason is over time the flap in the base of your esophages will not work due to the throwing up and then this further lead to cnacer in later years. Also there is nothing pretty about being bolemic. Who wants to hug skin and bones. Respect your body and take care of it. You should do stomach excercise before bed and pracitce holding your stomach in this really helps. Please take care of yourself.

Answer 8

really you should think about what your about to do because you are lucky that you lived through being anorexic and bulemic now your gonna throw away your life because of a few pounds is a well i hate to say this but pathetic- what you need is more bedroom workouts those will help your tummy go down

Answer 9

reasons why you shouldnt be bulemic....

-its disgusting
-the stomach acid from your vomit with burn through your esophagus
-your teeth will turn brown
-its not healthy
-women with a little meat on them are Hotter than skinny ones
-there are other ways to stay trim, fit and healthy too
-bulemia is an emotional disorder, not a dieting technique.
-for your emotional problems you should seek counseling, not vomit
-you need to love yourself more than to put your poor digestive system through hell, for something as shallow as your figure.
-oh, and its nasty ( i couldnt be with a girl who did that)

Answer 10

you want someone to say yeah sure go do something bad to yourself? you need to get therapy and study the dictionary to work on that spelling instead of bingeing!

Answer 11

no, be a healthy person, if your belly offends, consult a dr
getting rid of it is going to make you sick, in the long run your worse off.
