It's bulimia and it's important that you get help for her as soon as possible. Bulimia can have many horrible effects on the body. She may think you're trying to hurt her by getting help, but you're really helping her.

puking by sticking a finger in throat is Bulimia Anorexia. It hurts throat because all stomach acids are strong and throat lining is not as strong, then you deprive yourself of nutrition, Why eat so much. Just chew your food a long time and eat more vegetables.

Strange. Very strange. Sticking her finger where? The problem eludes me as does any concrete description! The only thing I'm clear on is you're confused, and aren't blond. Blonds never claim to be confused, I might add.

Tell her to talk to someone about why she does this. It may help.
