How long do you have after eating, to vomit, to get rid of the calories?


Question:
I'm worried a friend of mine might have an eating disorder, bc she get sick a lot, but its not always immediately after eating.

Answers:
The sad thing is if your frined DOES have an eating disorder, there isn't really much you could do to stop her. She has to want to on her own.
Having said that......
Are you sure that your friend has NO other ailments? I often get sick after eating because of a bowel disorder. SO JUST because she is getting sick, doesn't mean she does have an ED.
The good news is this, No matter if you throw up immediately after eating, or not, there will still be some nutritional vlaue from the food that is retained.
However, vomiting is hard on the stomach, esophagus, teeth...etc.
eww tell her to stop VOMITING. thats really unhealthy as u may no so talk to her nicely and try to ask her..maybe say an example about urself with an eating disorder so she becomes more comfortable with u.
