I was wondering if I have an eating disorder. Everyday I eat on a specail routine so I will make a bowel movement the next day. When I wake up I eat a bowl of cereal and a cup of coffee to make myslef go to the bathroom. Is this bulimia? Because it feels like I need to go but it wont come out. Therefore I force it....

Bulimics force themselves to throw up very frequently so that their bodies don't get a chance to absorb the calories in the food they've eaten. Some people also take laxatives to force the food out. You didn't mention making yourself throw up...do you? Wanting to stay regular doesn't sound particularly like an eating disorder to me, but I'm not a doctor. Are you doing anything else that made you ask your question? You sound pretty ok http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif

No, no I don't do anything else. I don't need to loose weight or anything. Actually, it wouldn't hurt to gain alittle. The reason I do this is because I hate feeling sluggish and bloated. It ruins my entir day and puts me in a bad mood.
