I have been overweight my whole adult life, was slim (skinny even!) till about age 14 when I developed horrendous eating habits and definite binging tendencies which I still have. After comments about my weight from my dm, I went on my first diet (weight watchers) aged 16. Am now 33 with 2 dc of my own, dd is 2.10 and I don't want her following in my footsteps. At my heaviest I was 93kg (about 14.5 stone) and I'm 5"6. Post dc 2 I was 83kg and in the last 10 weeks I have got down to 74kg using calorie counting. I'm within 7kg of my goal weight. However as with all my previous diets (ww, sw etc) when I reach this weight (within a stone of target) it's like I get cold feet! It's like I deliberately self sabotage and start binging. For example last night I had over 3000 calories!!! Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me? Almost as if I'm scared to achieve my target!!
