Okay.... I need help.. and I want it now. =(

I've had a huge success in losing weight over the past few years... (I've gone from 220 at 12 years old... to 144 at the present moment) But... I always seem to be plateuing! I'm 5' 4" and 144 right now... I had just recently been dragged out of anorexia.. which I had lost 10 pounds on... but then when my mom made me start eating again... I gained 5 back... and I'm afraid that I'm gonna gain the rest back! My goal is to get to 120 - 125.... I eat *very* healthy. I eat mostly organic foods. I'm a vegetarian... (the only 'meat' i eat is fish.. and sometimes egg yolks) I stay with low fat foods. I don't eat sugar.. except for the sugar in fruit. I try to limit breads and carbs.. because I know that my body clings to processed carbs if I have too much.. I make myself stay below 1,800 calories a day...

I'm a dancer..... I'm at dance class at least 3 days a week.... I try to jog and work out everyday.... But I don't know what else to do!!!! I'm not moving from this spot on the scale.... and I'm terribly afraid of what the scale will say by the end of the week.... somebody please help me! =(
