I am in the midst of trying to get my health on track and reached out to a nutritionist who turned me on to this website for guidance, support and structure. I hope to meet some folks out here who can help me along the way especially when I am discouraged and motivated to eat everything wrong. Looking forward to gaining some weighted relationships and succeeding with getting healthy and loosing some LBS.

Hi Angela! Welcome to MFP! Things are going to be awesome. It is totally normal to be nervous, but you are super capable!2

welcome and good luck.
there are not WRONG foods or BAD foods. many of us have lost weight eating a variety of food (including daily "junk" food) - as long as you generally have a good balance of food to keep you satiated and healthy the only key part for weight loss is eating at a calorie deficit.
i eat chocolate daily! most of the time 2x a day! and "candy" fairly regularly.2
