Answers:
There is compulsive over eating, or binge eating disorder which is like what you said, but without the purging!. Some people don't even know these disorders exist and just think that its somebody eating too much!. Bulimia is not bulimia without some form of purging, so as you don't do this you aren't bulimic no!. I go through this too, with cycles of bulimia and ana, so if you want to talk or anything message me if you wanna!.
Hope your okay!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It depends!. If you don't do anything to burn off the calories you binge on you may just have binge eating disorder!.

If you exercise to the point your body is exhausted in an attempt to not gain weight, yes it is a form of bulimia!.

Or if you take laxatives in an attempt to 'rid' yourself of the food!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Maybe so!.

You may have Binge Eating Disorder though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you exercise that much, then i would say yes!.!.!.!. please get help as soon as possibleWww@Answer-Health@Com
