24 yo, Starting anew!

Hello everyone! I'm Brie and I'm 24 years old.
I've gone from 200 pounds to 175 - earlier this year I was at 160 but I became stupid after I lost my dog and depression took over. Since then it's been really hard to get back on the path and I've stopped exercising altogether. I have a gym membership for another year though and plan on hopping back into it after my Disney vacation next week. I would really like to make some friends to help me through this journey to my goal of 150 pounds. I mean some real friends, who I can talk to and who can talk to me about anything from how their day is going to their struggles and successes.
Starting tomorrow I will be keeping up with my diary along with weighing my food and keeping my diary open to public for general cause. I don't really follow the typical "eat healthy" path since I always fall off that. I keep my calories where they need to be and just enjoy the food I eat. So please note I'm not looking for, "well you shouldn't eat that" comments. If it's under my calorie goal, then I'm doing what I want to be doing.
I just graduated with my AA in business management. I work in retail so while I don't move around a whole lot, I do make a point in walking as much as I can around my register. I play more video games than I should and plan to cut that down some so I have more time to things like walking and exercising.

You can add me too, I was at my heaviest at 265 two years ago, then the weight just fell off, lost 100lbs in a very short time, turns out it was diabetes, got depressed and gained back 50 pounds, I'm looking for real friends as well!0

Sorry to hear about your dog...I lost my dog (14 years old) a couple of years ago and I was in your same situation.
You can add me.0
