Why is starving yourself a bad way to lose weight?

1.90K viewsBiologyOther

My friend has been starving himself and vomiting up his food consistently for the past 2 years i’d say, he’s about 65kg whilst being around 6’1, i try to tell him that it’s bad for your health and that sooner or later he’ll just put the weight back on again anyway, but he hasn’t, he’s stayed being relatively skinny and there has been no changes in his behaviour or personality in fact i’d say he’s much happier than he’s ever been.

This is bulimia. I’m a recovered bulimic. After years of vomiting, while I didn’t mess up my teeth, I tore up my esophagus. Anytime I’m genuinely sick or vomit or sometimes even coughing, blood comes too. Some people aren’t as lucky and seriously damage their teeth or die while being on the toilet. He needs intense therapy.
