Answers: anorexia: when you eat little or nothing, and restrict your calorie intake to a dangerously low amount
bulimic: when you binge (eat A LOT, like more than one can handel) and then purge (throw it up)

First off, it's bulimic not belimic.
Bulimia nervosa is when you binge on food and then you purge and excessive amount of exercise. Anorexia nervosa is the opposite. It's when you don't eat-at all.

Anorexic people starve themselves, but belimic (or however you spell it, I've never been one and dont intend to be one) people eat, then force themselves to throwup to get rid of their food.

First off, they can both be fatal eating disorders. Next anorexia is an eating disorder where you do not eat or consume very small portions because you have a distorted view of your body image. Bulimia is also an eating disorder where your view of your own body image is distorted, but in this case you most of the time binge food(eat a lot) and then purge ( throw it up) but some people purge even the small amounts of food they eat. Neither is good to have, nor should it be taken lightly if someone has it, because like I said before it can be deadly. I hope this helps.

Bulimia is when you throw up most of your food. Anorexia is when you don't eat nearly enough food.

bulemia is when you eat a ton of food.... and then make yourself throw up, thats called binge [the eating part] and purge [the throw up part]]. sometimes thought, people will take medicine to make themselfs poop alot.
anorexia is when they starve themselfs by never or hardly eating.
and whenever someone has either one of those, they ususally excersize like crazy.

Anorexia Nervosa is an eating disorder that mostly affects teenage girls and it is where they eat hardly any food, thus continuing in excessive weight loss.

Bulimia Nervosa is an eating disorder where people make themselves throw up usually with a toothbrush or finger to get rid of all the food they have just previously consumed.

Neither of these disorders should be considered a diet and it is a horrible habit to get into.

Anorexia nervosa is when the victim is lipophobic (afraid of getting fat) and will practically starve herself/himself and will usually exercise almost continually...90% of people with anorexia are women and are usually middle class with more than one sibling
Bulimia nervosa is when the victim is also lipophobic though not as much...the person with bulimia will throw up their food...usually starting out regurgitating their food after binge eating then whenever they eat at all...
both are deadly. 20% of all people with eating disorders die.

anorexic- you think you are fat no matter how thin you are. bulimia- you throw up food, you may even eat a lot of food with the sole purpose of throwing it all up afterwards.
some people have bulimarexia- they don't eat, and when they do they throw it up.
