Have you voluntarily: purged (deliberately vomited up food) in the past. If you are a chronic purger - your body may have gotten into the pattern of vomiting whenever you eat. Regardless if this is the reason or if you just can't hold down food - this is not normal. Recommend medical consultation. Take care.
