Bulimic for 26 years. I didn't start purgeing until after a number of binges, followed by days of fasting. If added in those years would make make me bulimic for 34 years.
I am keeping better and better control of binges.I avoid my trigger foods (those that taste so good and can be gotten rid of easily.)
I still get out of control, I won't give you details, it isn't pretty.
Neither are the crowns and caps on my teeth from where stomach acid ate through the enamel. My front teeth are real, so I still have a decent smile.
I think it's interesting that when I go into a major depression I stop eatting. Last time I lost 10 pounds which I am strugglig with to keep off. I weigh myself twice a day and so far gained back one pound, but I know it'll be gone in a day or two if I watch what I eat. Alcohol is my downfall, I love wine and drink way too much of it. Shouldn't be drinking on meds anyway, so I am going to have to force myself to limit it. I want that pound dropped quick.
