Need help staying Motivated...NEW to MFP

Options
I am fairly new to my fitness pal and i am looking for some wonderful people who are like me and are trying to lose weight and stay motivated. I guess you could say that I am looking for new friends to share our weightloss journey together....My name is Amanda and I am 26 years old, I weight 239lbs and I'm 5'3. My goal weight is 170 or somewhere around there. I know that I will never be back to my high school weight but I want to be healthy and fit. I am a mother of 2 kiddos, student and I work full time....so I have alot going on. My main struggle is that I have the motivation to start to lose weight and then without the support I just stop and gain it all back......please let me know if you would like to help eachother out....i have gmail and kik, skype and MFP (duh) lol.....
Have a wonderful day Lovlies!!!!

    I'd like to think I motivate well and in turn motivate myself to set a good example. I'd be more than happy to help anyone who really wants to stick to this life changing journey. Good luck and welcome:)
