80 lbs to lose - looking for motivation

Jabbywock

I'm Jackie and I've been overweight all my life. I am 5'7" and weigh around 230 lbs. I want to lose around 80 lbs.

This is my first time posting on a fitness forum so don't mind my shyness. I just have come to the conclusion that I need support to attain any real weight loss.

I never really learned how to cook properly. Grew up on a 'box food' home. So I would love some friends with healthy recipient suggestions for a learning cook.
