Anorexia, binging, spouting out food,and laxative abuse

I uses to be 227lbs and I'm 16 years old. I lost weight until I was 107lbs
and dealt with anorexia. Then the binging started and I thought I would never
get out. Now I'm trying to gain until I reach 130 pounds, but have had many problems
like taking laxatives and chewing and spitting out food. I can't stop binging when I do eat..
Please help me!! I'm 117.5 now!! Advice anyone??

My body was addicted to laxatives. I had gotten so dependent that I was taking a strong laxative with cascara segrada in order to have a BM. Sometimes I would go 4-5 days without eliminating. I knew I had a serious problem So, I went to a GI doctor and I had a colonoscopy done. Everything was normal except a few mild hemorrhoids. He told me to take the Lady Soma Fiber Cleanse (because it was just for women and could be taken continuously). In less than 24 hours, I went to the bathroom 3 times and eliminated ALOT. It wasn't diarrhea either! Just normal and NOT painful. As a bonus, I lost 2 lbs and an inch from my waist because the bloat is gone! It does work but read the instructions. It says for "Occassional" use.
