Food Series Part 7: Bulimia


Listen Later

Bulimia eating disorder involves binging and purging. Binge eating means eating an excessive amount of food within a two-hour period. Purging is a compensation for that binge. If you are struggling with bulimia or you know someone who is, youโ€™ll find this video very helpful!ย 

Bulimia nervosa is one of the most common eating disorders specifically for young women. When it gets a hold of you, oftentimes if goes into your whole adult life even if you are not actively binging and purging.ย 

You get a feeling you want to binge, you lose control, say "oh forget it" and you proceed to compensate. Every time you do that, it affects your health in bad ways!ย 

How many times have you done this?

To beat bulimia, you need to practice control. ๐‚๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐ซ๐จ๐ฅ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐š๐›๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐›๐ž๐ข๐ง๐  ๐จ๐ง ๐š ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐Ÿ๐ž๐œ๐ญ ๐๐ข๐ž๐ญ ๐ข๐ง๐›๐ž๐ญ๐ฐ๐ž๐ž๐ง ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐›๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ž ๐ž๐š๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ ๐ž๐ฌ. ๐ˆ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฅ๐ž๐ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ ๐ฒ๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ฌ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ˆ ๐ค๐ง๐จ๐ฐ ๐ฐ๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก.

You need to dig deep and ask yourself why did you binge in the first place. What made you do that? What was that feeling? Put that feeling in the middle of the map and find out why that triggered you so much.

The choice opportunity that helped me is about how to practice control. Real control is about stopping your binge in the middle of it. Gain control without going to the opposite disordered type thinking such as orthorexia and anorexia.ย
