Starting a scary adventure in weight loss

Hi, I'm Amy. I'm 22 years old, recently graduated from college with a BA in Writing, and five days into my weight loss. I've always struggled with my weight but never allowed myself to admit that something was wrong. I promised myself at the beginning of my final semester that once I had the degree, I would do something about my weight as I know stress tends to be a huge factor in why I can't seem to lose weight. I'm sensitive about my body when it comes to people whom I actually know in "real life" (ie my friends, my family, and especially my boyfriend), and only one person -- my best friend -- knows that I am doing MFP. This can cause a problem because, well, we all need support.

So, yeah. Feel free to add me and together we can reach our goals
