Here is some information on bulimia nervosa.

What is bulimia nervosa?

Sufferers of bulimia eat large quantities of food (binging) and then, to avoid gaining weight, either make themselves sick or take large amounts of laxitives. They may suffer with this for years because their weight stays the same so noone notices. They are secretive about their eating habits.

Warning signs of bulimia nervosa.

-Spots around the mouth
-Puffy face due to swollen salivary glands
-Frequent stomach pain
-Constant use of laxitives
-Very sore throat
-Tooth decay (due to stomach acid)
