I looked it up to be more specific and i'll summarize the main pts i found:
- The number of calories absorbed during binge-eating episodes depends on the type of food eaten (simple carbs are absorbed almost immediately) and the duration of time the food has been in the body before vomiting occurs
-The longer the food has been in the body before vomiting occurs, the less effective vomiting will be for preventing weight gain
- with vomiting, you eliminate about 50% of the calories eaten (im assuming your metabolism speeds up to burn off the rest)
- with laxatives, you don't eliminate calories but rid the waste in your system (which can weigh up to a couple pounds) and rid the water in your body (which makes it seem like youve lost weight)
I hope something here helps you to see that its not the right way to go about eating and things.
