It's good to have a goal, for weight loss or anything you want to achieve. If you want to achieve the goal, however, it's best to focus on the process you need to achieve it, rather than the goal itself. There's no way anyone can reduce bodyfat by 10-15% by wishing it- as Al C. has stated. Figure out the daily processes needed and focus on doing those every day. It seems like you haven't really started that yet, with no real accountability to yourself through food log and knowing how much food you need to sustain yourself with slight deficit needed (along with gradual metabolic changes) to burn fat. Stay at it day in and day out, allowing for the weeks and months it might take to produce results. There's good advice above, and habit-based authors like Georgie Fear have tons more.
