Sounds like you do have an eating disorder. You need to get help as soon as possible because the type of living can be lethal to your heart. Please please please go see your doctor soon. He can direct you where you can go for help. I recommend considering staying at an actual facility for eating disorders (sort of like rehab). I've seen a lot of patients do very well at these facilities, and they come out with a higher self esteem and better eating habits.
I've kicked the bulemia habit myself...I know it's hard but it can be done! But please get help. This isn't something you can tackle on your own (trust me).
Best of luck to you!

I believe only a doctor can truly answer a question like this, however, it does seem as though you are heading in the wrong direction. Eating in secret is never a healthy option and neither is making yourself throw up. Throwing up can cause alot of damage to your stomach and esophagus, in addition to contributing to the formation of an eating disorder (bulimia). If you are trying to lose weight, eating three healthy meals a day, preferably lower in fat and calories, is the best way to go about it.

yes, it sounds like your bulimic. this is very unhealthy. when you dont eat alot and then you puke it up, you can get malnutrition, which can result in death. you need to see a doctor right away so you can on a healthy diet.
here's the definition of bulimia:
Bulimia nervosa, more commonly known as bulimia, is an eating disorder. It is a psychological condition in which the subject engages in recurrent binge eating followed by an intentional purging. This purging is done in order to compensate for the excessive intake of the food and to prevent weight gain. Purging typically takes the form of vomiting; inappropriate use of laxatives, enemas, diuretics or other medication; excessive physical exercise; or fasting.

seems like your starting an eating disorder. eating alot of food then vomitting it is being bulimic. yeah it feels good to get complimented that you look good and stuff but there's a point where you become underweight and need to stop. if you want to lose weight, lose it the healthy way. add more variety to your diet like some protein and carbs so you'd have energy. instead of feeling guilty about eating alot, exercise instead of vomitting. vomitting is just going to give you rotten yellow teeth and a stinky breath along with other diseases. it doesnt matter what time of day you eat just remember to consume the right amount of calories(around 2000).

You are the exact definition of a person with bulimia. You desperately need help. Bulimia is when you binge & then feel guilty so you purge it will rot your teeth because of the stomach acids that you're constantly throwing up & it can goes as far as killing you if it's left untreated. Get help now because the longer you live with the problem the harder it will be to tell admit to yourself that you do have a problem. I wish you the best of luck.

Yes, you're galloping toward an eating disorder. Your poor body is trying to save itself. You need to get some help to nip this in the bud. Breakfast is OK, but the rest of your non eating sucks. Good luck.

Yes, you have an eating disorder. Get yourself to a doctor ASAP, and ask to be referred to a psychologist or psychiatrist. You need to find out what thinking pattern led you to these eating habits, and what led to the thinking pattern, and they're the ones who can help you. The fact that you are asking about it is very good. Please deal with it NOW, because if you don't, your whole body will suffer, and you may not recover completely.

Yes, you have a bad eating disorder. You should let your parents know before it get to bad and you have to hospitalized for your problem. You have nothing to be ashame of, there are many people out there who have the same problem. I want you to get some help before it is to late.

YES YOU DO. You are called a bulemic.
You should get help immediately. I have a friend who used to be bulemic and she went to her doctor immediately to get help. She's fine & healthy now & she looks awesome. You don't have to treat yourself this way just to lose weight. You deserve better than that.
Please see a doctor asap.
All the best!
