Lizzie's diary 4th June 2008
Another small advance this week - a further 0.3 kilos - to 40.3 kilos. Not quite the pound of flesh I had promised my husband, but that means I am now a fraction short of 6stone 5lbs.
I have read your posts on and off since reading your story in the Telegraph.
I am too recovering from anorexia. I can relate to the torment you are feeling. The ups always follow downs. I hope you can find the strength to beat this horrible illness.
Outsiders may struggle to understand how difficult it is to let go of the demons that strive to starve you. I, myself have a repulsion and attachment to my anorexic sidekick.
The weight gain is merely one aspect of recovery. I relate to your ever changing mood towards the scales changing.

Keep battling through.
