Yes, purging twice a week will likely kill you within a few decades if you keep it up through the serious health issues you'll face from purging. That's assuming you maintain control of your ability to choose to purge. If you loose the ability to retain food in the stomach you will degenerate very quickly.

Yes this is an eating disorder. This is Bulimia. It can also do the same things to your intestinal tract that it does to your teeth and worse still it creates imbalances in your body that cause a domino effect of health problems over time. Worse for you, since you're in puberty and relying on balanced health to grow into a functional adult. The longer you engage in purging during these years of your life the more and more severe health complications you will have to endure through your life.

You need help. Stopping is not enough. You need medical evaluation to see if serious damage has been done and you need psychological evaluation to help you from falling back into this behavior. You need to tell your parents that you have an eating disorder and you need to get professional help.

Yes.. eventually it will remove the enamel from you teeth.. make them yellow, sensitive and painful.. esophegul problems.. stomach problems.. you can even burst eye vessels from the pressure not to mention the strain on your heart. From experience I thought that two times a week was no biggy.. but.. soon you will need it more and more and more and perhaps end up like me purging up to 100 times a day. please stop before you really dig yourself into a deeper hole that will only be harder to get out of. it isn't worth it. if you could.. speak to your mum about changing what you eat or something.. just don't do this to yourself because it will get worse.

How can I be bulimic if I am not underweight and don't binge eat( or whatever its called). I have lost a number of pounds, but I'm still in the healthy range...........how can that mean an eating disorder?

Because the disorder has nothing to do with your weight. It has to do with your self-esteem and the method you choose to deal with your weight. While you seem to think you're stable now the pattern of this disorder is that enough isn't enough. That the purging doesn't stop even when you realize that you're killing yourself for a few vanity pounds.

Hey there,
It is an eating disorder, sweetie. I'm sending you lots and lots of hugs right now. No one your age should have to go through this. I go through it every day myself and it is not pleasant.
Your eating disorder would probably be considered EdNos, I am EdNos too. EdNos basically means you do not meet full blown criteria for any specific eating disorder, i.e. you purging food but not specifically binging.
Purging after every meal could possibly lead to bulimia though. I understand not wanting to talk to your parrents about it. I completely understand why. But I will gently encourage you to do so before you end up suffering with something no one should ever have to suffer with. My eating disorder has stolen years of my life away and is stealing some of my close friends from me, and I don't want you to ever have to go through that.
If you ever want to talk, feel free to send me a private message, ok?
Sending you a big hug, hun.

Can a doctor tell you are purging if you are not underweight?
