Is this normal? - I can induce vomitting without using a finger to dig down my throat (as seen in tv shows and movies). I simply extend my tongue a little, work some throat muscles and I get the onset of vomitting sensation.
Nope, not unusal. I can do it rather easily too. Just lean over the toilet and tighten my stomach a bit until I can feel revers paristolsis (sp?) doing it’s thing.

If any of you are barfing to get thin, consider what you’d look like, thin, and smiling with brown, rotting teeth. Now, go talk to your doctor. You have big, big problems.
My second paragraph in the previous post was rather, um, overstated. I was harsher than I needed to be. If I hurt anybody’s feelings, I apologize. Eating disorders are a serious matter, but my post seems unduly nasty, in retrospect.
