Looking for support buddies

I am in my 50s. I am a wife, mother, and grandmother. I am home bound which makes things hard. I have had 5 abdomen surgeries due to hernias and I have gained a lot of weight in the abdomen area. I need to lose at least 80 lbs. I am doing wii fit 30 to 60 minutes a day. I hate most healthy foods....I surely could use weight lost buddies, recipes, weight loss tips, suggestions and so on.

    I also try to stay away from soda. I can't have many junk foods because I have celiac disease so I guess that's a no brainer for me.

    I also love to use the wii. I play just dance with my kids often!

    Feel free to add for support :D
