Question:

I have always yo-yoed dieted since I was old enough to care about my appearcance. I have since throughout this period i.e 14-21 thrown up or forced my self to vomit, when I have eaten something that i consider bad e.g Indian take away etc. I get my guilt issue from my mother who ate healthily however she considered all things like chocolate etc bad, naughty and so on. My question is can you be bulimic nervosa if you are over weight?
