This forced throwing up sounds like a means to cope with some distressing feelings. I think it would be advisable to bring it up in therapy. The therapist may suggest alternative coping techniques to use in the future. Don't beat yourself up over it. That just leads to more negative feelings to contend with in the future.

But, I feel you want to know why your doing this. I may be wrong, but I feel this is a wanting to purge a feeling out of your system. Maybe, it could be a feeling like being bad inside. What feeling would you like to get out of the pit of your stomach or what feeling can't you stomach?
