Looking for friend to help motivate me. Currently training

Hi my name is William. I'm 25 years old, about 5'8" and weighing about 216 lbs. I'm a pretty active guy but my diet is keeping my from losing weight. I decided to join MFP to help with my weight loss and would love to find some friends to keep each other acountable.

My goal is to get down to 170. In high school I used to wrestle in the 160 weight class but since then I've put on some muscle. I also take Muay Thai 5-6 times a week for a hour at a time. If anyone has any advice as to what else I can do to lose weight and help me be better at Muay Thai would be greatly appreciated. Well I hope to meet some friends here to help motivate each other towards weight loss. Thanks everyone!
