Bulimia, Yoga and Nutrition |
They feel guilty about the binge eating but because they are afraid of becoming fat they continue the destructive cycle of compulsive eating and vomiting, which they can't control. Emotional difficulties in life, demanding jobs, low self-esteem, family relationships, death of someone special, sexual or emotional abuse can lead to bulimia. Bulimia is more common in girls, effecting women between the ages of 16 - 40 and is most likely to begin at about 18-19 years of age according to National Health Service UK.
Bulimia can cause not only physical problems such as lethargy, tiredness, irregular periods or quick weight changes but can develop psychological problems like obsession with food, mood swings, depression, shame, guilt, feeling lonely.
It can take over the life of the sufferer making her feel trapped and desperate and can lead to self-destruction. In extreme cases the disease can be fatal due to heart failure.

During an interview on the ABC-TV news show "Prime Time Live," she revealed that she has suffered from the severe eating disorder for about 17 years. After years of struggling with bulimia Paula Abdul admitted: "It became a living hell for me and I wanted to get help. I wanted to be free from weighing myself on the scales." She sought the help of professionals and went through an eating disorder treatment program.
