<human>: Give me a shortened version of the text

I've been working on my weight loss since January (with varying intensities). I'm almost to 40 pounds down, and really proud. I've gone from 174 to 136 with no crazy dieting, just counting calories and working out when I can. I'm 5'2" and I want to get to 125. [Here] is a icture of my progress as of 2 months ago.

I'm moving tomorrow into a friends' in-law suite and we were talking. Now, these friend are like Super Activist. Which is great, but one friend offered me a cookie and I declined because of my diet. My shocked friends asked why I was still losing weight, since I am the smallest I've been since they've known me. I told them that I felt like I still wasn't at a healthy body and I want a better hip-to-waist ratio. They accused me of fat-shaming myself and told me that since I hadn't read the complete original studies on hip-to-waist ratios and their connection with health, that believing that was invalid. 

I believe in accepting your body, but I also believe in perfecting it and making it something to be *proud* of. I don't know how to express this to them in a way that they will accept. Help?
<bot>: Friends are heavily into body acceptance and think me losing weight is me fat-shaming myself. How do I help them understand?
