when u used to purge id stick my finger down my throught untill sick actually came up, and id make sure it got all over my hand first (which sounds disgusting thou if it didnt it didnt work lol)notice how i said USED TO though. I know u dnt want to be lectured on how its bad and everything, but this doesnt lose you weight, trust me, id know. Infact, it makes you want to eat even more so you put on weight. SO, DO NOT PURGE! im not talking about long term health here, because i tbh dnt really care about that (even thou i know i should) Im saying that purging does nothing for you. it only hurts, and you dnt even lose weight. its a waist of time. so why put yourself through it?xx

Fairy_Lu agony auntSweetie you need help, and not help on how to purge, you need to see someone about your eating disorder you have no idea what you are doing to yourself.

Your rotting your teeth stopping your body from functioning properly causing brittle bones your hair to fall out and you carry on like this you will cause your organs to FAIL! People die from doing what your doing is that what you want? Is that the price you want to pay to be slim your life? Sure you will be slim but trust me you wont be pretty you will have limp hair which will fall out you will have awful skin not a good look!

You need proffessional help and nobody on this site will help tell you how to purge we will not be responsible for what you are going to do to yourself.

k_c100 agony auntPlease please dont try to purge, if you dont end up killing yourself through Bullimia then you will do irreversible damage.

I hope nobody on here tells you how to do it - it is unhealthy and you need to find professional help to deal with your issues.

There is no way to lose weight fast, even purging wont make you lose weight quickly as you still absorb some of the calories and fat from food before you purge.

If you want to lose weight then do it sensibly, by lots of exercise and eating better. I have lost 10lbs in 1 month through diet and exercise, nothing else. No weight loss tablets, no laxatives, no purging, nothing. Just good old fashioned exercise in the gym 4 times a week and eating low calorie meals with less carbs. It really is that simple.

And you must bear in mind that if you do manage to lose weight super fast, you will just put it straight back on when you start to eat again. The only way to lose weight is to do it slowly, make a change in your lifestyle that will last forever - not just a fad diet or an eating disorder.

I know it seems hard when you feel like you want to be thinner right away but you must give it time. Think of how proud you will feel of yourself when you have got down to your goal weight, knowing you have done it properly and have improved your health.

Bullimia is very serious and causes huge health problems, being sick regularly rots your teeth and can damage the stomach which in turn can cause death. Please dont think that purging is the right way to lose weight as it will only harm you in the long run.

Go to see your doctor; if you have a BMI of over 30 then they can help you with your weight. If your BMI is lower then it is questionable if you need to lose weight at all and I would suggest getting your GP to refer you to a therapist to help you with your need to purge.

I hope this has helped you and I really urge you to seek help professionally on this.
