Axel:

i think there is a big big emotional component in bulimia from my
experience

a, but nothing of this will touch
the underlying emotional lack of balance that promts so many people to
eat
too much chocolate, too much dates, too much nuts,

but food is NOT, IMHO, the most important reason for
people to have eating disorders.

I identify with all of your comments. Doing the work of releasing
negative emoitons is the answer to all this. Check out how to do this on
my site:
