I need friends to keep me going

I am so darn unmotivated.
I just had a baby 7 weeks ago, my fiance just got us a new place and we moved in this past week, I started a new medicine for my bipolar disorder and I just feel STRESSED from these major life events!
I lost 9 pounds prior to this major setback and I am praying to God that I didn't gain that all back when I weigh in tomorrow.
Anyway, I haven't tracked my food intake for over a week now and I definately fell off the wagon but, not only that, I got ran over big time... by every single wheel. I am sick of giving up on things that I am passionate about, I am sick of failing and I am sick of the way that I look. I am NOT going to quit this lifestyle change no matter what I do. Yes, I had a huge setback but, I am admiting my mistakes and jumping back on that darn wagon tomorrow morning. I plan on weighing in and starting from there- back to clean eating and hopefully getting a little bit of exercise.
I am looking for friends who are going to truly motivate me. I have a handful of friends now who I actually get comments, messages and motivation from. The other friends, I give so much more than I get. If you are the type of person that will message me on a daily basis asking me how things are going, sharing recipes, talking about life and congratulating each other on our weight loss than you should add me.. that's what I am looking for. I need a motivator.
I started this adventure with 100 pounds to lose and I'm not going to stop until I get to that low number that I am wanting. I won't stop and if you have a hard time staying motivated and keeping on track, add me and we can help each other.
(P.S: Everytime that post about when I had my daughter, people tell me to "take it easy" and just spend time with her and sleep as much as possible but, trust me... I know. I spend all day bonding with my beautiful daughter, I can eat heathy and exercise along with her somewhat during the day. I am capable of being a new mom and losing weight)
Thanks for listening! I hope to hear from some of you shortly.

i can't guarantee i'll say something every day, usually on my phone in the evenings so it's harder. but i'm trying to get myself eating clean and moving more. so if you want to add me, i'll try my best.
