Bulimia?....?

i need help cause i think my metabolism is so slow now since i stopped trying to throw up and my stomache kills

First off, CONGRATS on stopping!! That is soo huge!!! I was bulimic for 4 years, (now age 22 and been in recovery for 18 months-woohoo). When I stopped, eating was the most painful thing ever, go to a doctor, they will give you a medicine to ease the acid for a week or two until you get some food in you. Tell them whats wrong, and that it hurts. My stomach and throat hurt so bad, and something that is common for bulimics is gastroesaphogul reflux disease, a disease to your esophagus from the stomach acid eating it away. Your stomach itself will hurt from having food in it, it's not used to that. Try eating really small portions at a time, but constantly. Try getting in like 8-10 "mini-meals" a day for the first week or two. I mean like, a few bites here, a few bites there and make sure it's healthy and non-acidic. Don't eat things like oranges, or tomatoes that contain a lot of acid, this will hurt! OMG I am so happy for you, your on the right tract. I have a website with a ton of info if your interested in checking it out, I would love to hear your story-when your ready-if that's something that at some point you'll be ready to share with people.

Read about bulimia, and look over the treatments there, see your doctor and findout what they can do about the pain for the first few weeks.
Once again, congrats, I know how hard it is!!
God bless

good thing that you stopped throwing up! and its true that not consuming enough foods will slow down your metabolism. hows your stomach? how long have you been making yourself sick??

I'm so glad you stopped throwing up! Good for you:)!
Try seeing a doctor. They'll know just what to do. Don't feel embarassed about talking about your bulimia with them. They'll be able to help you if they know what the problem is. Just stick to healthy foods that increase metabolism.

I use to be bullemic...and I just had to wait it out. My stomach pains eventually stopped. It's just that your body is so use to spitting out everything that goes in, that it almost becomes a natural reaction to try and get it out. Wait it out...I promise it'll get better.

Is there anyone who knows you have this problem? If so, or not, tell someone, and I would take a trip to the ER as soon as possible. You don't want your body to shut down, and end up in shock, or worse. Please get to the hospital.

LOOK ON THE INTERNET UNDER HEADING " BULIMIA CURES" OR OTHER SEARCH HEADINGS. ASK REGISTERED PHARMACISTS, OR CALL A NURSE LINE . OR SEARCH " DIET FOR BULIMIA " DONT THROW - UP THE ACID CAN DO DAMAGE TOO AND YOUR BODY WILL BE DEPRIVED THE NOURISHMENT IT NEEDS. EAT WHOLESOME FOODS AND EXERCISE BY WALKING AND BRINGING YOURSELF BACK TO STRENGTH AND VIGOR ! JUST DO IT !!!! AND REWARD YOURSELF
