Time to look after myself

Hi there,
I'm 45, I weigh 275 pounds, and I'm diabetic. I have been "trying" to lose weight for years, once successfully losing 50 lbs on Weight Watchers.
I am trying to finally make this about me and for me. I think I've always tried to lose weight for noble reasons, but not the right ones. I've tried to lose to please someone else, to get approval and to look better in someone else's eyes.

I really haven't ever done this just for me. Now is the time. My health is too important.
I'd love some friends for encouragement along the way.
