I replied to another girl who was considering purging. It's not cool, you shouldn't mess with it. And I suggest you tell your friend to get help too before she dies. My cousin has brain damage from purging, she has lost a lot of her back teeth, and has already had a heart attack. Only 23 years old too. We were really close but now she barely understands me. You can lose ten pounds in one month by doing the right things. It will make you feel really good about yourslef. Just be patient. Binging and purging is a really really stupid thing to do. There are a lot more side affects then I told you about. Go to some web sites and read up on it before you decide you want to slowly kill yourself.
