Looking for some MFP friend support !

Hey Everyone !
I've been on MFP back and forth over the last few years, this time I created a new account and started fresh. Only issue with this is that I only have a few people listed as my friends on my list, and yes it is great having my close friends as supporters on mfp, but I think I need to expand my online friends list and get some more support! Looking for people to add me as a friend and I’ll add you back, we can help motivate each other and keep one another on track! Here’s a short version about me
Always been the “tall big girl” in my mind, I am 5’10 and weigh 267 pounds. Oh wow. Yup. I just typed that out and I don’t think I have done that in a long time, makes me feel a bit more obese than normal. Back to the story, yes I am 26, happily dating the love of my life which has been helping me as well with this new healthy lifestyle choice. I am a supply teacher struggling to get any type of contract, but one day it’ll happen!!
I have started going back to the gym and it has been going great, and eating as healthy as I can, so far doing good ! It is about two weeks into the process, and I have blogged ALL food which is going awesome and I have been doing a little writing in the “my blog” session as well.
So yes, that is a bit about me !! if you are looking for some extra support on here like I am, please feel free to add me as a friend, you can read more about me in the blog section !
Hope to make some new friends !

We can never have too many friends. I had been meaning to join for a year and finally decided to just do it. I have a 15 month old grand daughter that I would love to be able to get down on the floor and play with (then get back up) and be around to watch her grow up. It's time for a change and I'm not going back. I've only been on MFP for a week but LOVE it and all the support I have already gotten. Ready to give more support. Its FANTASTIC! Good Luck and I'll request you as a friend.
We're on this journey together.
