With this questions we us do simple survey to know about bulimia.. For the first question about the meaning bulimia. I do some research about meaning bulimia and I get the meaning on internet.

Second question, there is no easy answer to this question. Just as the life of every individual is unique, so are the reasons why they become bulimic and the paths they must take to overcome it.

There is currently no definite known cause of bulimia. Researchers believe it begins with dissatisfaction of the person’s body and extreme concern with body size and shape. Usually individuals suffering from bulimia have low self-esteem, feelings of helplessness and a fear of becoming fat

Next question Women’s sexuality is exploited, their intelligence questioned, their roles limited and often confusing. They are bombarded with promises of a “better self” through the dieting, fashion, cosmetics and anti-aging industries. Most women feel unsupported by a culture with such shallow values! They want and deserve something more something that gives their lives meaning in a deeper way. It is this role within this society which is at different times limiting, confusing, frightening, and unfulfilling, that propels enormous numbers of women into the safety and numbness of food problems.

For the last question, I get in internet. There are many tips and many good treatments for bulimia. It’s can help you feel better and eat normally again, even if you are had bulimia for long time. There are two treatments for bulimia. It is psychotherapy and medication. Then cognitive behavioral therapyis one the best psychotherapy treatments stop bingeing. Antidepressants can help treat bulimia but they can have side effect. Aside that a drug called topiramate also seems to help people with bulimia.

When you want to lose weight, you may be tempted to try extreme diets to accelerate your success. One extreme diet is the Atkins diet which encourages followers to eat a diet full of protein. This plan also limits the amount of carbohydrates that the dieter can eat. If you try the Atkins plan, you may see results within the first couple of weeks with a drop in your weight, but you will also experience some side effects from the lack of carbohydrates such as a lack of memory and shakiness.To achieve long term weight loss success, you do not need to resort to such drastic diet measures. There are many other ways in incorporate healthy options into your diet without depriving your body of needed nutrients and experiencing side effects.

These surgeries also have consequences which include the inability for your body to absorb needed minerals and vitamins.
