I heard abuseing laxatives is a form of bulimia but doesn't it take longer to wait than purging? Vomiting can occur after a person wats but don't laxatives take time, so how is it a form of bulimia?

Yes, I have actually had this problem.
If you OD on laxatives, your food will be purged as diahhrea. But only 30 percent of the food will be purged. So if you go on a binge then the barfing will be a better choice. Laxatives work when you are restricting calories. If you eat 1000 cals, you will end up having 700 cal;s

Laxatives that are taken on a consistant basis will rush the food you eat today through your body and be less absorbed, than if no laxative had been taken. So basically your body doesnt get to absorb all of the calories and you lose weight. Most of the weight is water weight, and will be gained back as soon as the laxatives are ceased.

I permit myself to eat purely purely a sprint, yet once I ought to eat greater effective than my abdomen is used to ( going out to dinner with enjoyed ones ) it's going to upward push up. A binge to me is ingesting a doughnut, a binge to a bulimic is ingesting ten doughnuts, a ton of ice cream and a few factor else they are in a position to eat a ton of and throw up. i wouldn't in any respect eat a pair of doughnut in an afternoon, and collectively as I do eat a doughnut, it relatively is largely my meal for the day. I understand puking is gross to plenty women and adult males human beings, notwithstanding the sensation of being finished is gross to me, and that i ultimate think properly collectively as i'm hungry. that's an ailment, a disease that I surely have, which disgusts plenty women and adult males human beings. I wager you could no longer particularly understand why you think the ought to try this till you are the only it relatively is ill. and particular, it does suck, i choose i might purely be happy with my physique, notwithstanding I on no account would be

laxitives keep the food from getting into their system which means the more they poop the less weight you can gain. it's the same thing as throwing it up except it's coming out the other end. when you use laxitives appropritely it takes time. they abuse them which means they are constantly taking them and basically everything that goes in comes right out the other end.
