O They can also lead to compulsive behaviors (ones that are hard to stop).

Bulimia Cont. O Diagnosis: binging and purging regularly, at least twice a week for a couple of months. O Binge eating is different from going to a party and "pigging out" on pizza, then deciding to go to the gym the next day and eat more healthfully. O Eat large amounts of food (often junk food) at once, usually in secret. O Feel powerless to stop the eating and can only stop once they're too full to eat any more. O Purge by vomiting, but may also use laxatives or excessive exercise.
