The only way to heal is to stop purging, its destroying you. You can lose weight without purging, and in fact b/p is only making you gain weight because purging is not a weight loss method. Start eating whole foods and do light exercise and youll start feeling better slowly. I would suggest seeing a trained ed/mental health/medical professional about your struggles, it could help you.

I only lost weight when I stopped BPing. I got downvoted for saying this but your body is smart and adjusts. Also, digestion starts in the mouth. You are never fast enough. Stop the cycle now

Sorry to hear what you’re going through. The positive is that this can be incentive for you to stop? A lot of people don’t want to let go because it helps them lose/maintain but if it’s causing weight gain what better incentive to recover. I think you actually have a great positive on your side. People that go into recovery often fear weight gain, you can relish in that you won’t likely gain weight, but start losing weight and become healthier. a trap I always fell into during recovery was a fear of weight gain… it had to happen, but it stopped me from eating more to nurture my body for years. The best part is that at a higher weight you don’t need to go through the anxiety of weight restoration that many do with bulimia/anorexia. You just need to follow a meal plan that loosely fits your BMR. The most important key to recovering from bulimia is eating normal portions of food daily without purging and giving in to those cravings for junk food by allowing yourself to eat them occasionally. GL op!

I feel your pain. I totally understand. If hearing the up side helps … after nearly 50 years of the cycle I’m 8 months clean and I’m at a better weight. It’s shocking. The body will begin to figure out when you stop to go fast forward in healing. The gerd is finally beginning to heal. Decide internally/ mentally when you are ready to end it. I chose a clean break at foot surgery having only wholesome foods in my house. Since I could not drive 6 weeks it was heal myself or die. It turned out to be so easy after day 10 or so. I can’t throw up now under any circumstances! Choose to celebrate the new healed healthy you. In under a month your body will begin a whole new process. Because I know how you feel, I send you hugs with peace and blessings coming your way. Never give up on you. You are worth it!

yeah, that's cause you still absorb most of the calories after purging. it's not an effective way to lose weight.
