New Year, Old Me ( need friends and motivation)

I'm fairly new to this. I see on my account that I signed up for this over a year ago, but I have no idea how I did that. About 2 months ago my daughter encouraged me to try this website telling me that it might give me the motivation I need. I "dinked around" with it for a few weeks and let life's busy-ness stop me. Now I am disgusted with my self and am trying again. I REALLY need a cheerleader who can tell me to "go girl". I am 53 years old and weigh in at 256 pounds. I tend to nibble all day and don't get motivated to fix anything remotely nutritious. I've been on blood pressure medicine for the last 12 years. Heart attacks and strokes run on both sides of my family so if I don't do anything soon, I will go that same path. My daughter (23) has battled a weight problem her entire life due to my poor example. This January she started to log everything she eats and has lost about 60 pounds. She started at 244. I am very jealous of her success. She keeps telling me to get a fitness partner to encourage me and keep me accountable. I tried my sister, but she is a skinny minny health-nut who only weighs about 125 pounds. She told me that I need someone in my shoes because I would only get more discouraged by her eating habits. I wanted to use my cousin, but she is very bad for me. She's my age and maybe 20 pounds younger than me. But every time she "cheats" she calls me and whines and complains how she cheated and how I need to do the same so we can be even. It doesn't take too much persuasion to get me to eat that doughnut or chocolate bar. I really need someone to motivate me when Im doing good or bad.....
