I've been purging for awhile now, but all of a sudden i'm having ttrouble doing it. Anyone have any idea why? Also, don't try and talk me out of it, i'm not going to stop. I've tried not eating, but my family makes me eat, so i have to do it. Thanks.

I don't think i'm bulimic because i don't binge, i only eat what i have to, so that's not builimic, because they binge then purge i just purge what i'm forced to eat.

Chew each bite at least 50 times and then drink 2 sips of water between each bite. when you're done with your meal and at the toilet make your index, middle and ring finger into a triangle (midddle finger on top) and shove them all down your throat. try to think of something, anything, that would make you sick if you saw it. Thinks of somethin totaly gross. yell at yourself in your mind like a personal trainer does to the one theyre training saying ' you have to do this or youll get fat. you're halfway done, dont stop now' and things like that. if you gag dont move your fingers, keep them there until it comes up. chug water before you start though. if you have to, tickle the very back of your tongue with those fingers. hope that helps. it worked for me.

It may be the food you are eating or maybe lack of liquids. From my experience, the bread group seems to be the hardest. If you're not drinking much fluids then it also makes it harder. Everything just "sticks". Damaging your gag reflex??? The longer you purge the easier it gets. After awhile you wont even need to use your finger because it will come up on its own... Weather you want it to or not and weather your ready for it or not....

It's too bad you are so adamant about continuing to purge. Vomiting repeatedly will eventually erode all the enamel on your teeth making them change color, rot, and then fall out, which is going to look a lot worse than carrying a few extra pounds will. Another side effect is chronically swollen salivary glands, which give you "chipmunk cheeks" -- not very attractive either.
And then, of course, there's the liklihood that, if you continue to purge, you will actually DIE. It can happen suddenly -- the constant vomiting or laxative use can lead to potassium imbalances in your blood that cause an instantaneous and fatal heart attack.
PLEASE GET PROFESSIONAL HELP RIGHT AWAY. At best, you're going to lose your teeth, get fat cheeks, and look horrific. At worst, you're going to end up six feet under. If you want to look your best, be thin, and be gorgeous, you need to get counseling IMMEDIATELY. PLEASE TELL YOUR PARENTS WHAT IS GOING ON and get help!!

You have damaged your gag reflex.
Please seek help as you will have other serious medical problems if you continue with purging.

You do understand that this practise will kill you. At least, I certainly hope that you do..
You are desperately ill, and need to be treated for bulimia. See your doctor, as there is help available. In fact, that's precisely what your body is telling you to do.

Maybe your body has had enough of it. Your vomit has acid in it which could be damaging your throat making it harder to vomit now. Your teeth will rot out to if you keep doing that.
