New(isn) 20 year old looking for support and accountability

Hello! I've been on for a few weeks now, but never introduced myself and wanted to find some friends who comment on and like my reports as well as keep me accountable! I'm 20 years old, 238 pounds (down from my highest of 257) and have been overweight (and mostly obese, I think) for my entire life. I'm hoping to lose about 100 pounds with an ultimate goal of 135, however as I've never been skinny I may stop before then, I just have ZERO idea what looks good on my body. I am also a college student on a significant amount of financial aid, so I'm limited to eating all my meals but breakfast in the dining hall (which is a buffet) so I'm hoping to find EXTRA accountability here to keep me on the straight and narrow and away from the unlimited fries and cookies I pass every meal!


Currently for exercise I'm doing Zombies Run! 5k training (finished week 4 run 2 last night) to train for a warrior dash on April 5th, and doing 30 mins of elliptical training (about 3miles a workout) on the other days of the week.

I'd love to befriend anyone who wants someone to regularly check up with and is willing to do the same with me, regardless of age, experience, or amount to lose.
