Looking for serious weight loss pals!

Hello everyone!
My name is Emily I'm 18 years old, 5ft8inches in height and I weigh 241lbs my goal weight is 150lbs- 91lbs to lose over a long term- I'm not into fad 'quick fix' diets. I would like some weight loss pals who are also in it for the long term for support and motivation! I've previously lost weight but I always end up putting it back on because I can't stay motivated but when I heard about the my fitness pal community I knew there'd be a nice group of people willing to cheer me on and be cheered on by me, I would also like to be held accountable for my bad habits haha! I've just started jogging (just a 5-10min jog around the block atm) so fellow joggers feel free to say hello!
I hope everyone on here is as nice as I've heard and I hope we can all reach our GW and stick to it!
Only one question- will you be my weightloss buddy?

    Hello hello! I'm going to add you as a friend. I have about 60lbs to lose and I'm super short (5') so every lb is definitely noticeable on my frame!
