I could have written your account of weight loss myself. I too still hate my body and think I'll never be okay until I lose the right amount of weight, and even then I don't think I'll be okay. I also count calories very carefully and only eat very lean meals. I fast for several hours after waking up and I have pretty much…

At 177.8 pounds, I've lost about 52 pounds so far. My mini goal is to make 170 by halloween, but it's going to be difficult because my weight doesn't really want to budge at the moment.

What an incredible achievement! I'm so sorry for the loss you have suffered, but you have shown them very dear respect and amazing love. I'm sure you have inspired a lot of people in a lot of ways and I'm one of them. Thank you for the love you have shown your family.

Vegetarian high protein, low carb, low calorie small dishes throughout the day. Variety in food to ensure good nutrition. Mindful eating, small bites. Eight glasses of water per day.

Goal 1) Figure out how to manage exercise (walking and elliptical) with fibromyalgia symptoms. Keep up at least walking regularly even through the symptoms. Goal 2) Acquire a healthy diet within my calorie range. Track my food each day. Drink 8 glasses of water and log it. Goal 3) Lose 10 pounds.

This is my first 5% challenge. I'm mostly looking forward to gaining support around healthy habits that will enable me to lose weight now and in the future, as well as simply live a healthier life.
