Looking for 'Diet' Buddies!!

Hello everyone!
I am a relatively new member to the site and I have been tracking my calories and exercise habits on and off for a little while. I use my phone to keep track of everything and I love the interface of the site and I find that keeping tabs on my intake really keeps me motivated! Only thing is that I keep falling off the band wagon after a few weeks and going back to old habits mostly due to my incredibly hectic life. I finally decided to come do the 'forum thing' and seek out some diet buddies. I think it would be great to find some fellow MFP-ers to become friends with and just keep tabs on eachother and keep one another motivated so we can stick with this long enough to achieve our ultimate goals!
That being said...My name is Meredith and I am a 23 year old grad student. I just got married 3 weeks ago and my hubby is in the military so I don't get to see him often...I am not a big dieter and I don't necessarily need to loose more than 5-10 pounds, but I really just want to start living a healthier lifestyle! (And the next time my hubby comes home I'd love to surpise him with a killer bod! hehe) Basically I am just sick and tired of not being 100% confident in my own skin...So this time around I am totally going to throw myself into this diet/exercise routine and I was hoping to find some friends who are willing to go the distance with me!
Thanks everyone!
