Bulimic friend?!
Question: A friend of mine told me a few years ago that she was bulimic, but she got help, put weight back on and got healthy again. But recently shes lost ALOT of weight again, but its strange because i see her eat loads when we're out.. she keeps saying stuff like "yay i'm loosing weight again" and i dont know what to say to her anymore...
any ideas of what i can do?

my ex gf is bullimic and its a horrible disease. it never truely leaves you and you are a good friend for being concerned. Try talking to her about it seriously, just you and her and offer your help... she will more than likely push it away and say there is nothing wrong, but she may see sense that she needs some help. She should have a programme in place (i.e. councillor/doctor) who she can talk to about these problems as it is anticipated that a bullimia sufferer will always have tendancies to revert back to it at some stage in their lives. Good luck and be therefore your friend
