There's 2 types of Anorexia
Anorexia Nervosa - the type that you're probably thinking of right now
Anorexia Bullosa
In both types the anorexic tries to lose weight.
The key difference is that people with Anorexia Nervosa are succesful at this, they use means of Purging (vomiting) or Restricting (less intake & hyperactivity)
Anorexia bullosa = Binge eating + Inadequate attempts at weight loss (purging)
