Am I Bulimic And Other Questions.... Posted: 06-26-06 09:12am
In april I weighed 147 pounds and started
a diet in which I cut back my diet to
about 600- 1100 calories a day (i'm 5'3").
Towards the middle of may, I stopped
counting calories and started more bulimic
behavior (throwing up usually more than
five times a week). I now weigh about
133 pounds. I also haven't gotten a
period since before I started the diet
(and am definitely not pregnant).
My questions are-
1. Does this signal an eating
disorder?
2. Will my period come back if I start
eating about 1300 calories a day and not
throw up? (i want to lose about 8 more
pounds)
i don't know all that much about eating
disorders, so I just need some help
understanding

Well, there are some signs that you may
have an eating disorder, like throwing up
and the missing period. But you are
always in time of changing that.
First, try to stop vomiting, because it's
really nasty for you, and then go to a
doctor who can make you an eating plan.
