Nutrition support for bulimia recovery
Bulimia nervosa involves repeated episodes of eating a large amount of food with a sense of loss of control, followed by behaviours to compensate, such as vomiting, laxative misuse, fasting or excessive exercise.
Restriction and long gaps without food often drive the urge to binge. A specialist dietitian helps you establish regular, adequate eating, which is one of the most effective ways to reduce binge and compensation episodes.
Nutrition support works alongside psychological treatment, such as the bulimia-focused guided self-help or eating-disorder-focused cognitive behavioural therapy that NICE recommends. Compensatory behaviours can affect heart rhythm and blood salts, so your GP should be involved in your care.

Questions
Will regular eating make me gain weight?
This is a very common fear. Regular, adequate eating usually reduces binge episodes. We focus on health and your relationship with food, not on weight targets.
Do you work with my therapist?
Yes. With your consent, we share updates with your therapist and GP so your nutrition and psychological care support each other.
Why do I need to involve my GP?
Vomiting and laxative misuse can affect blood salts such as potassium and your heart rhythm. Your GP can arrange blood tests and physical checks.
How many sessions will I need?
Our care pathway includes at least four follow-ups after the assessment. Many people benefit from longer support, and we review this with you.
Are consultations online?
Yes. All consultations are by secure video, across the UK.
What if I become unwell?
If you feel physically unwell, faint, have chest pain or are having thoughts of harming yourself, contact your GP or NHS 111 straight away, or call 999 in an emergency.
