Friends who are also screaming inside

Hi,
I've just started MFP and am looking for friends for the give and take of motivation, understanding, rants, encouragement, and basic understanding.
I am 46 years old and currently on a mission to become healthy again. I have fought with my weight all my life and have morbidly obese members throughout my family tree ( maternal grandmother died weighing over 400#). My weight, at the Dr.'s this morning, was 264.8 and I'm hoping to go down to 175.
I look forward to meeting positive, upbeat, people who are screaming inside because the outside just doesn't match the internal image of oneself.

    Welcome! I have used MFP as a great tool to help me lose weight and maintain weight loss. I have built a great support system along the way. Feel free to add.

    Anyone else can add me as well.

    Thanks!
