Why do bulimics believe that laxatives will help them lose weight?!
Question: Actually, laxatives DO cause some weight loss, due to loss of waste and fluids. Taking too many can become dangerous, though....and that is what bulimics and anorexics do....they go overboard on it.

Because it will
Because the less poop in the colon the lighter they will be.
No it wont. When you poop you dont lose nutrients, they are already absorbed in your intestines. Unless you have pounds of sh1t in you, you wont lose weight by pooping more.
Laxatives basically force whats in your digestive track to exit the body quickly or consistently-which will if abused, causes one to lose weight. Bulimics are all about getting rid of waste.
Because it will... I was anorexic for a period but I did eat a hefty amount of food: but the reason I lost so much weight is because I took laxatives (drank a laxative tea to be exact) and WOAH! Let's just say I had NO social life because I was on the toilet each & every night for like 2 hours at a time and then every hour on the hour when I was trying to sleep: it was quite miserable and annoying: that is why I stopped and I am much better now!! Plus, laxatives totally rob you of your energy - so DONT DO EM!
