I know it's not as significant as some others, but I've lost my first ten pounds and am feeling rather proud of myself :). I suffered from anorexia as a teen and now that I'm losing weight healthily, I've proved to myself that food isn't scary, calories aren't scary and I can lose weight and be happy. This 10lbs is a massive milestone for me and I just basically wanted to share this with the community, even though it's not as much as some others have lost, it's quite a big deal for me :D

    It truly is a success...but the bigger one is that you're losing in a safe and healthy way. Good for you!

    Well done! I suffered from an ED too, so I totally understand how you feel.
    Keep going!

    Pick up two 5 lb bags of sugar, and you will appreciate how much weight that is. Great job.

    Pick up something that weights 10lbs and you'll see how significant it is! Plus the motivation factor?! WTG!!!!!
