Making yourself throw up is called Bulimia, and it is a serious problem. No matter what level you have, according to WebMD, "Acid in the mouth from vomiting can cause tooth decay, gum disease, and loss of tooth enamel. Any type of purging can lead to bone thinning (osteoporosis), kidney damage, heart problems, or even death." It's a bad idea overall. If you are making yourself throw up because of food, speak to a doctor. Bulimia is an eating disorder which can be hard to overcome on your own and help is available. Check out http://www.edap.org/, the National Eating Disorders Association, for more information.

simply you get addicted to it and when you want out you can't
cause your mind will be thee one in control and in order for you to get better you will need professional help.
You could die from doing this but you could also have some side affect like losing your hair, teeth getting messed up, pale skin feeling tired and grumpy at times. Look here all I wish I could tell you is not to do what your doing but you will do it regardless
I have an eating disorder and I am still trying to fight to get better and it is not easy stuff I started like what your saying and ended up the way that I am. I wish I would not have put it myself in this and now i have to basicly get myself out of it of course with professional help. And i think you should seek professional help before it is to late

You will become extremely thin, your teeth will turn yellow, and your esophogus will rot away from all the stomach acid running across it.
Yes, death is a definite possibility. If your esophogus ruptures, you'll die from loss of blood. And if that doesn't happen, you could die from being so thin. You won't have any fat left from throwing up, and then your body starts to eat away at itself and your bones become weaker and weaker.

Yes, you can DIE from 'forcing yourself to throw up' after eating. This is an 'eating disorder' and you need to see a 'doctor' and get HELP IMMEDIATELY!

After awhile you will look like a corpse but you will imagine that you need to lose more weight. People will stare at you with horror. Eventually you will die
