New Member seeking Friends and Encouragement!

Hi! I have SUCH a long way to go. I'm 315 lbs now, and want to (long term) get down to 180. Short term, I want to get to 280 by my 27th birthday. I get discouraged incredibly easily, so I'm hoping that by finding a group of encouraging friends here I will be able to push through the discouraging times.
Also - if you're from Philly and want a walking buddy, let me know!
