Hi, I just started CC on June 2, 2008. I have always had  problems with my weight since I was a teen.  I have been trying for years to loss weight and it has been a struggle.  I just can't stick with a plan.  I always find myself getting upset and depressed about not losing any weight or only losing 2lb,then I end up quiting my diet plan after about a month.  I guess I'm looking for a quick fix and that's not going to happen.  Well, now I am 26yrs old, standing 5'1, and weighing 176 lbs.  I was almost 200lbs last year...so I have lost some.  My goal is to reach 135...I hope I can do it.
