Hi! Looking for similar minded friends

Hello,

My name is Aleta and I have been using the MFP app on iPhone for the last 4 months or so. However, this is the first time I've posted in the forums in hopes of meeting some like minded people. The first 3 months were great, and I lost 15lbs. The last month has been one of the most stressful I've experienced in years, so I went astray and gained 2.6 lbs back. I'm hoping if I find some more friends here to support me (I have 2 now) it would help the motivational/accountability factor a lot.

To describe myself briefly:
I work full time in a childcare/retail/office environment (I wear many "hats" in one company).
I go to school full time in the evenings– I'm working toward a B.A. in Humanities.
My free time is either homework, sleep or visiting my boyfriend who lives 90 miles away.
I'm currently 4.6 lbs away from my short term weight loss goal.
My goal is to be 30 to 40lbs lighter in a year. I'm tired of being obese, and I want to enjoy a nice figure and healthier body while I'm still (relatively) young.
