No need to get into a purging eating disorder. Weight loss with surgery is still about eating healthy and exercising.

NO.

If this is something you are considering doing then I recommend you talk about why you feel the need to do this with a counselor or therapist.

This does not sound like healthy behavior. I agree with the others that if you are resorting to this sort of thing, you should consider talking to a counselor about it or even just your doctor. If there is something about your monthly weigh-ins (with your doctor, I assume?) that is causing you that much anxiety, maybe have an open and honest conversation with them about why you are feeling so much pressure.
