do you mean bulimia?
Bulimia is a type of eating disorder. Someone with bulimia eats a lot of food in a short amount of time (called bingeing) then tries to prevent weight gain by purging such as making oneself throw up
taking laxatives, pills, or liquids that increase how fast food moves through your body and leads to a bowel movement
A person with bulimia may also use these ways to prevent weight gain:exercising a lot, eating very little or not at all or taking pills to pass urine.
What should you do if you think someone has bulimia?
Tell that person your concerns.
Avoid conflicts with him/her.
Avoid giving simple solutions.

Bulimia is an illness defined by food binges, or recurrent episodes of significant overeating, that are accompanied by a sense of loss of control. The affected person then uses various methods -- such as vomiting or laxative abuse -- to prevent weight gain.

It is often associated with measures taken to prevent weight gain, such as self-induced vomiting, the use of laxatives, dieting, or fasting. Also called bulimarexia, bulimia nervosa.
2. Excessive or insatiable appetite.

Bulimia is an eating disorder. A person will binge and purge because they think that they are fat. Purging can be done by vomitting or by doing something like taking laxatives.

It's when you binge eat. Some times you won't eat anything, then you over eat. Balimics usually make themselves throw up when they've over eaten. It's sad.
