I need a support system

Hi! My name is Amber. I'm 22 years old, and I live in southwest Michigan. I am in college right now, double majoring in English and Japanese. I keep falling in and out of the "healthy" lifestyle-- I'll do it for a few months, stagnate and go back to maintaining, do it for another few months, go back to maintaining, etc. I'm tired of maintaining the 100lb of fat on my body! I think part of the reason I haven't been able to keep up is because I don't have any friends or support on MFP. Doing things on your own is always more difficult than doing them with friends, so-- does anyone want to add me? :)

(By the way, I may not be sunshine all the time. I'm going through therapy for PTSD and sometimes that does shape my attitude. But everyone has their battles and their bad days, so I don't think it will be a huge issue...)

    I just posted on another thread where some members were being pretty mean to a new person on MFP. It made me feel really fed up. And then I see this post, and it has reminded me how many good people are out there to act as a support system to each other. Feel free to add me. The more support we all have the better.
