My Time to Shine - looking for support

Hello! Very new to the entire concept of proper eating, weight loss, and exercise. I have been the big kid ever since 4th grade, so I guess I just grew up accepting that and living with that. Well, not anymore!
I stumbled onto MFP, and I think it may have been a sign. While MFP has me only aiming for 2 pounds a week, that would be 104 pounds by next Thanksgiving . . . I sure could live with that.
The site and everything I've seen appears to suggest having some buddies on this MFP mission, so I am looking for any and all people who not only enjoy offering support, but also appreciate getting support back. I hope to hear back from some of you who have already taken the plunge and are looking at helping somebody get going and staying on the right track.
