Zip Lock bags in odd places - a sign of bulimia

When I was bulimic I would always have zip lock bags with me... In my car, backpack, and every room of the house. This way I could throw up anywhere. If I had just had dinner but couldn't sneak off to throw up without seeming suspicious I would wait for whoever I was with to leave the room and then throw up where I was.

Example: watching a movie with my mom and the phone rang. She left the room to answer it so I grabbed one of my hidden zip lock bags puked in it and hid it under the couch. Then I would throw it away as soon as I could.
