Is it normal if I sometimes make myself puke when I eat too much ?
I don't do it very often; varies so twice a day to every two days. I just feel very fat when I really know I'm not... I just feel so guilty every time I eat, yet I love eating and hate making myself puke.
Do you think it's normal?

Yes! You are Bulimic and are headed down a very dangerous road! You are not fat so just eat and don't worry about it. As long as you eating healthy foods you will be fine. But seriously, get help. Because the bulimia only gets worse from here kid, and the end result if you don't get help soon is either the hospital or dead.
Nope, not normal honey. Get yourself some professional help, soon.
Go get help.
yeah you are pretty much trapped in a house of mirrors with no way out of your guilt and distorted body images besides REAL help like from doctors and self-esteem rebuilding people or support groups.

it may not seem like a problem with doing it just a little bit, but eventually from puking enough, your stomach lining will get screwed up. your electrolytes will get off balanced and you'll be malnourished. you might even get a seizure from the binge and purge cycle and die.

there's a book i read about a guy with bulimia if you're interested. it's called "nothing" by robin friedman

good luck, hope you can recover
no, not normal, but then again what is?
get help, dont be afraid to ask, to tell someone you trust not to go blabbing
there are serious, serious side effects of bullmia,
the valve in your throat can errode after serious acid decay from vomitting too much, and when it erodes you wont be able to keep any food down
your teeth will rot
your hands will get scars
you'll have serious vitamin deffcientcies
you hair will start to fall out
your face will be pudgy and constantly swoollen
you'll gain weight ( most likely)
your throat will have scratches
you'll be in constant fatigue
get help,i hope you havent been doing this for too long
im getting a bit sick of all these bulimics. i feel like its some sick sympathy thing and people are posting so they feel someone cares. "oh. gosh, im making myself barf, but i just need someone to specify that i do in fact have an issue"
YES! PEOPLE ARE AWARE!
This is very serious. Please get immediate help!
