Looking to make friends!

Hi! I'm Sarah, a 20 year old senior in college looking to lose about 70lbs. I've been back and forth with weight loss for what feels like my whole life. I've never been able to wear a single digit pair of jeans and that's kind of my push. I have a couple of inactive friends on MFP but I'm looking to see a stream of inspiration every time I log in. I tend to lose a lot of motivation if the scale doesn't budge one week, and I'm infamous for losing 20 pounds and then gaining it all back. I'm ready for my healthy lifestyle change and I'm looking for people to push and motivate me and people that may also need motivation. Motivating others helps to motivate myself. I've lost 8lbs since I've started almost 2 weeks ago. My ticker says 0. Not sure how to change that, I thinks it's from the first time I put my weight in for MFP about 2 and a half years ago and never did anything with it.
Anyway a little about me: I'm an art major. I am currently on a mission to read all of john greens books, I love netflix and I keep up with nearly 10 different shows, a couple of my favorites are glee, pretty little liars, and the vampire diaries. I've also watched other non "teeny bopper" shows like breaking bad and orange is the new black. I'm always up for checking out a new series. I mostly listen to pop music but sometimes I have days when I want rock, country, love songs, or rap. And I'm always down for some Michael Jackson.
I'm someone that doesn't want my life to strictly revolve around losing weight. I want to feel like I have a life while losing weight and I'm a believer in cheat meals.
