@jokester859 It is actually common for a Bulimic to be overweight. And actually, despite popular belief that Bulimics are stick thin, most Bulimics are either slightly underweight, average, or slightly overweight because although they purge their food, their body (especially after doing it for a long time) will automatically start absorbing some of the calories. And since the metabolism slows down, Bulimics and even some Anorexics (depending on how much they eat) will start to gain weight.

I like the fact that they have overweight people playing patients with bulimia. Makes me feel less alone (even though it is only a fictional film)

I was anorexic/ bulimic when I was in middle school, I actually gained weight over time. I went from ana/mia to an obsessive over-eating because I never got help other than when my family found out they force fed me. Now I'm okay with it and losing weight healthy and don't do stupid stuff anymore, but It still crosses my mind, like I can't eat infront of people without getting upset, I doubt that'll ever go away

@fisteberg I think weepingwillows meant someone of any weight can have e.d. tendencies; not that everyone is anorexic or bulimic.

[fisteberg]

@weepingwillows21 No i don't think so.People are not all anorexic or suffering from boulimia disorders and it's happy!It's a mental,psychological trouble before everything.And a control of emotions and pain.Everyone is not concerned.i know some people who are not anorexic or bulimic.

[weepingwillows21]

from my understanding anyone can have the tendencies of a person with anorexia or bulimia or both

@piglywiggle But I understand what you mean
