Some bulimics throw- up every thing they eat, every time they eat. They will drink large amounts of water after a meal to make throwing up easier, bu sticking their fingers down their throats and make themselves throw-up. Sometimes they will try not to eat and give in and then end up eating the whole bag of chips or cookies but then will have to throw it all up to keep from gaining weight.sometimes they just eat normal and binge once in a while. The whole thing is to be able to eat whatever you want to eat and not gain weight. Staying thin is the reason for it all.

Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa are eating disorders that affect a person's acceptance of themselves and their image.

Bulimia Nervosa patients eat a lot of food to get the pleasure of eating (binge eating) but soon afterwards, throw up the food or takes laxatives or pills to move the food along the digestive tract quickly to prevent too many nutrients and calories from being absorbed.

Anorexic people have a really bad image of themselves when they see themselves in the mirror. They think they suffer from problems such as "overweight" even when they are losing weight and are skinnier than normal. They usual don't eat much and suffer from fainting, heart attacks, tiredness, depression, mood swings, suicidal thoughts and other dangerous problems. Those who do eat usually binge. Anorexic people can weigh as little as 40 or 50 pounds.

Binging and purging.

Binging means eating loads and loads of food and afterwards, they throw it all up. Sometimes, bulimics will go on binging fests where they binge for up to 3 days straight, and then throw it all up on the third day and don't eat a few days after, and then the cycle continues.

It's pretty dangerous because it causes tooth decay (especially in the front) as well as ruins your esophagus. It can cause permanent damage to your throat because of all the stomach acid that comes up into your mouth.

Not only that, but soon your body will create a natural gag reflex to where you don't even have to force yourself to puke anymore, so if you wanted to quit, you wouldn't be able to and then you'd be stuck in the hospital getting fed through a tube...and if you refuse hospital treatment, you will starve to death.

Binging on unhealthy food like loads of chocolate, then making themselves sick. Sometimes they eat a tomato first so they can tell when they have thrown everything up.
