h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well it seems as if i have been trying to lose weight forever! But now the end is in sight and i only have between 5lb - 71/2lbs to go. I want to get down to 8st 5 - 7.
You would think in the nature of my work i would find it easy peesy lemon squeezy but i don't. In fact with my previous history it is harder.
I have found it very difficult, and i have to be so careful what with having 2 eating disorders in the past. We have things called gremlins in our brains that pop up once in a while to say 'hello' and we just have to ignore them and hopefully they will go away. What i have found so hard is that a few of my clients decided to weigh me in each week...they thought it would motivate them....great all it did for me was to trigger me off, just what i didn't need! Having an eating disorder is very difficult for anyone else to understand, it is not like we ask to get it. It has been 9 years now since my last binge and sick episode, and i ain't going to repeat it ever! I am not saying i don't ever think about it i do, but i have just found a way in which i cope.
So i wonder how long my body will be stuck at this weight for? Its been 2 weeks for 1lb to go..hopefully it wont take me nearly 2 months to lose the rest of this.

Are you aiming for 8st 5 - 7 for any particular reason? How happy are you with your appearance at your current weight?

Hi Nige, yes i am aiming for that for a reason, i am due to have re corrective cosmetic surgery on Sept 19th, when i first had it done i was about that weight and i wish to be that for when i go back. Don't tell me i know 'it's a woman thing' and i agree.
I am not quite happy yet as there is a few areas i need to work on to. So today i was back in the gym trying to tone up.
