Looking for friends - I just committed to Keto diet to lose 138 lbs and get over emotional eating

I'm 338lbs and would like to get to 200 lbs in 18 months or less.
I have gotten down to 200 lbs once before through diet and exercise.
I'm looking to get myself more motivated and maintain motivation.
I'm looking to stop emotionally eating.
I'm looking to get back on track faster if/when I fall off the wagon.
I feel SO much better when I'm on track and losing weight, but emotions tend to get the best of me and my discipline can go out the window.
I'm hoping that by keeping in touch with some buddies that have similar goals that I can better "stay in the zone" and keep discipline in.
I've noticed that when I am journaling my exercise activity (or lack thereof) and journaling my food that I am more mindful - so I've got to keep that up.
Message me or friend me if you're looking for an accountability buddy :)

-Gary

    I'm a keto newbie and need more friends to help me stay on track. I have about 150 to get rid of so it's going to take a bit but I know it can be done.
