Bulimics tend to eat anything and everything as fast as they can and drink down a lot of soda because the bubbles help it come up easier and bulimics tend to weigh more because during their binges they take in about 20,000 calories and when you expell that from your system you're only bringing up half of the calories. Anorexics on the other hand will cut up their food into itty bitty little pieces and sit and rearrange it on their plate to make it look like they have eaten something. Anorexics weigh much less than bulimics because they only take in about 400 calories a day at the most.
