what are the visible symptoms of a bulimic and anorectic besides the obvious?
worried about a family member who has begun to purchase very bizarre things from the grocery store, like massive amounts of coffee, crystal light, sugar-free gum, chewable vitamins and that's all on some weeks but then I'll find receipts with high calorie foods. Looks like the family member has lost about 20 lbs but isn't underweight by at least 15lbs. Is this more of crash dieting or is there reason to be concerned?

Even if it is just crash dieting, I would still be concerned. How comfortable do you think this person would be with you approaching him/her and asking if he/she needs help or a friend? The whole point of what is being done is so that it isn’t obvious to anyone, so it is going to be difficult to "figure it out" without him/her knowing. See if you can muster the courage to just ask him/her, might be exactly what needs to be done.
