Question

What is the difference between bulimia and binge-eating?

Answer 1

Bulimia is defined as binging on food and purging. This is basically eating high calorie foods then forcing yourself to throw up so you dont digest it. People with this disorder instead of purging sometimes exercise to burn the calories consumed. Binge eating is defined as consuming a large amount of calories, thats it. The person might binge, lets say for breakfast, then starve for the rest of the day
