A new dangerous eating disorder has been plaguing college campuses, a study has found.
'Drunkorexia' describes a behavior when a student will skip a meal or exercise excessively before drinking.
They will then deliberately purge during or afterward.
The main point of drunkorexia is to cut down on calories and instead save them for drinking. It's intent is also to increase a buzz when drinking.

New? I had a friend in jr high school who did this. He used to say that the party wasn't started until the first time he retched.
I got to do CPR on him in high school.
more millennial laziness. Free stuff, health/body style, no exercise and good diet required!
If it keeps them passed out on Nov 8th, that’s fine with me.
If you send your child to college you want them coming home at night.
I think this has been around for 20 years or more. I guess it’s only a real “thing” if enough surveys are taken.
These students who are doing this will probably end up with a DWI. And worse, cause an accident while driving. Not good at all!
One more reason why a drinking age of 21 is ridiculously stupid.
Huh? When I was in college, I had money for food or beer. Beer won, time and time again.
Yes. When I was in college, it was money for food OR beer. Food usually won, but there were a few 12-pack dinners.
There is also a term I heard recently - maybe it’s been around a while but it is new to me - “Tactical Chuck”.
A tactical chuck is when a person who has been drinking a little too much too fast but wants to continue partying, he will induce vomiting intentionally to expunge recently consumed alcohol from the stomach before it goes to their head, to rewind or prevent feeling nauseous or dizzy, and of course so he can resume drinking at the party.
Well you know, kids these days, they know everything. And if they just learned it... well it means they invented it.
Idiots
I will save them a seat
When the so called smart ones rupture a vein in their esophagus they will perhaps have a different opinion

Funny how that works.
I bed it was invented by the Romans.
The vaunted Medical Establishment has also now invented a
new machine that is an automatic stomach pumper that
eliminates the food you just ate out your belly button.
A new & “improved” version of the old Roman “pukeatorium”
they used at their “feasts” at the height of their
warped “society”. What a messed up world it is!!
Don’t forget about all the drunk texting caused by this!
Sounds like what happened in ancient Rome.
