No if you have bulimia you can look even overweight ,though if you have anorexia you will look overly thin.

An eating disorder simply means you approach food in an inappropriate way which damages your health.

You can be thin, obese, or just average weight, and still suffer from an eating disorder, which is a mental illness requiring specialist treatment.

Anorexia Nervosa is the disorder you're probably thinking of; it results, in the worst cases, in practically no food being taken, and is life-threatening at that stage. Urgent specialist treatment is required.
