Looking for buddy/buddies for shared motivation!

Hi everyone,
I've been using MFP on and off for a wee while, but not taking it seriously enough. I really want to make a proper go of things - I'm currently around 268 lbs and want to get down to 180.
I'm going to the gym 4 days a week, walk a lot and am going to be aiming for 1420 calories a day as per MFH.
Every time I start a regime, I struggle with motivation and being surrounded by people who have not struggled with their weight, it's hard to find people to relate to. Anybody else looking to lose a similar amount of weight here willing to buddy up and keep each other motivated?
Thanks,
Kate
