Bulimia
Bulimia is a serious eating disorder involving cycles of binge eating (consuming large amounts of food in a short period of time) followed by behaviors to prevent weight gain, such as self-induced vomiting, excessive exercise, or laxative abuse. This cycle often leads to feelings of loss of control and extreme distress.
How can the Registered Dietitians of Enhance Nutrition help?
Your Registered Dietitian will meet with you in your first session for a complete assessment of your health and eating disorder history. At this time, your Registered Dietitian will give their clinical recommendations for moving forward. Throughout treatment, you can expect that your dietitian will help you move toward adequate, consistent, and varied eating to help with reducing and eliminating binge eating behaviors. Your dietitian will work in conjunction with your therapist to help establish coping skills to reduce and eliminate purging. Throughout treatment, your dietitian will discuss body image as it comes up. The end goal of treatment is moving toward recovery and intuitive eating.
