Bulimia Article Responce ( Respond on 2-3 articles)

    I found 2-3 articles on Bulimia. Bulimia is a serious issue, especially in teenagers. I found one article on bulimia at  http://sks.sirs.com and  one article on bulimia at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov . Bulimia is a illness in which a person overeats or feels a loss of control  when they eat, and what they do next is they force themselves to throw up. The articles I researched on  both of them mentioned that young women tend to bulimia more than men. People with bulimia are often at a normal weight, but they see themselves as fat and huge. For example, I have a cousin who is 17 years old and is 5'7 tall and is 138 pounds and she is absolutely happy with her weight because she knows that because she is tall, her height is normal for her. The symptoms of bulimia is when you do compulsive exercise, and go to the bathroom everyday after you eat, or buying a large amount of food and disappear quickly.
       I also found out that both of my articles also mention that bulimia can lead to dangerous medical problems. People who force themselves to throw up, stick their finger down their throat and after a while their esophagus gets destroyed. People ( young female teenagers) have bulimia because they want to stay thin and is scared for their body images. The article on bulimia from http://sks.sirs.com , I  found out that even websites persuade young women to be bulimic. Juli Babbit , is a 26 year old women who is recovering from bulimia and has found herself often going to a websites and looking at pictures of thin models showing off their ribs and gave her tips to lose weight. Juli now realizes how that website damaged her physically and emotionally as well. People with bulimia may think that they are in control of bulimia, but slowly bulimia takes control over them, I decided to research on these issues because I've read  books and magazines on bulimia and how it was a serious issue among teenagers.
   So, I think that if you believe that bulimia will help you stay thin... think again.
