Ouch. I think it'd be safe to extra nice to her for a while. But like JumpinJesus said, there's no way you could've known. A girl who used to be a really good friend of mine was talking to me one day about dancers and how often they got eating disorders to stay in form. Not remembering that she herself used to be a dancer, I started joking about it... also not realizing that was her way of subtly telling me that she was bulimic and wanted me to help. She took a slightly less subtle route after that.
I don't really know what you can do to fix this situation, it doesn't really seem like a great idea to walk up to her and say that you didn't know she was bulimic and that you're sorry, since she didn't tell you she was. But since you couldn't've known, I wouldn't beat yourself up horribly over it. It seemed like a fairly witty comment at the moment.
