Need Honest motivating friends

In 2008 I had a wake up moment. I stepped on the scale and I was 221 lbs and miserable. I hated life and looking in the mirror. I got busy and over the course of 4 years I had 2 babies but lost 72 lbs. I was at my all time low of 148 and felt great. I maintained that weight for almost a year then Thanksgiving and Christmas hit. The weight creeped up to 160 and I lied to myself and said this isnt so bad. Then 170 came and I was like I can take it off anytime. I hit 180 last week and I am miserable again. I tell myself I am going to start exercising and eating right and then I make excuses. Its time to wake up and face reality. I cant gain anymore. I am back down to 178 and know that its a start. Looking for some friends to help hold me accountable.
