      "BELIEVE, even when it is not rational, and good things WILL happen." -- somewhere off the net ------------------------------- Hi, I am a 24 year old female, and I have been struggling with my weight emotionally & physically since I was 12. I stand 5'9 1/2" so it didn't really show bad throughout the years. I have been told numerous times that I am classified in the obese category. My lowest teen weight was 199 & size 14/16, & my heighest adult weight was 288 & size 26/28. Within the last month, I have adopted new eating habits & a consistent workout schedule, and I have lost 15 pounds.
