MY LOG: http://www.calorieking.com/public/MALENKA/
RMR = 1165 (5' tall or 152 cm)
Target daily deficit = -400 cal
Mar 01 goal = 107 lbs
May 08 final goal = 97 lbs (44 kg)
When you look at my log, small meals throughout day will be listed as "early morning snack". The software does not do this on my computer, but improperly uploads to the public site that way.
Metric to Imperial:
28 grams = 1 oz
30 ml = 1 fl. oz
250 ml = 1 cup
1.6 km - 1 mile
1 kg = 2.2 lbs

| About me: |
I am a professional living in Greater Vancouver, BC. I am 5' 0" (152 cm) and small framed, so my RMR is very low and I burn far fewer calories in exercise. I might mention here that the bit of brain which controls appetite strongly believes that I am a 6'8" lumberjack.
Other important tibits about me:
- I prefer goal oriented and positive conversations
- I stay in groups in which we mutually support each other.
- I am a skeptic. I am completely open to new ideas and suggestions with evidence.

| My plan: |
2013 January 01
THE PLAN
1) precision calorie counting.
2) no alcohol for 6 months
3) daily public weigh in
4) train for May 05 half marathon #12
5) habit formations
WHAT I NEED HELP WITH
1) challenge me if I have not done one of the above
2) I am not at my intellectual or emotional best when I am hungry. Being calm and able to concentrate are powerful motivators for me to eat. I will have to take it minute by minute, and your help with that will be deeply appreciated.

http://www.skepdic.com/detox.htmlI am greatly encouraged by the camaraderie of persons striving toward an excuse free and self disciplined life. I also find quite amazing and delightful people who have a good sense of humour and are interested in others.

| Additional Info: |
To help non-petites understand petite's numbers: 95 pounds is for me what 127 pounds would be for the average sized woman (BMI 18.6).
