I'm really going to do it this time!

So... I used to be pretty thin(ish), about 130-135lbs. But when I got pregnant I gained a ton of weight, I was at 202lbs afterwards. I lost about 30lbs while I breastfed, but then I started a new (now my current) job that included overnights, where I developed a horrible habit of eating when I'm bored. I had gained most of it back and then I joined MFP at 195lbs, but I wasn't very motivated past just complaining about how fat I felt. That's been about the last three years. But about 2 months ago, I decided to actually get my butt in gear and stop complaining after I weighed myself and was completely embarrassed - 209lbs, that's the heaviest I've ever been, and I never even want to be that heavy again.

Since January 8th, I've lost 19lbs, which means I'm 4 lbs under what I was when I first signed up - so I'm already doing slightly better! Haha. But I'm looking for friends and a better support group than what I have now. My boyfriend is really supportive, but he just doesn't really get it... Anyway, thanks for reading my life story :P
