Looking for friends to keep me going

Hi, I am looking for friends to help me stay on track when I am struggling. I am 34 years old and I live in Florida. I am a nurse so I spend a lot of time on my feet and work long shifts so I struggle with not grabbing soda or sweets to give me a boost when I am having a mid day slump. I really want to get in better shape and eat healthier. I am trying to lose 40 pounds.
