Just turned 40 - Need support and friendship!

I just turned 40 in July and am at my hightest weight ever. I am 5 feet tall and 178 pounds. That's a lot for a short girl! So my goal is 120. That seems like a very far away number right now so I need all the support I can get.
I joined mfp in 2009 but wasn't serious. So I'm back and ready to tackle this head on! I will log my food and exercise daily and will try my best to make good food choices. And I am hopeful that through sweat and tears and support that I will reach my goal!
So please add me as a support buddy and together we can do this!
