Question

which disorder is characterized by a cycle of eating large amounts of food and then purging

Answer

Bulimia Nervosa- Characterized by a secretive cycle of binge eating followed by purging. Bulimia includes eating large amounts of food–more than most people would eat in one meal–in short periods of time, then getting rid of the food and calories through vomiting, laxative abuse, or over-exercising.

Bulimia? Im pretty sure because after eating you throw up with this disorder.
