Big girl with a big goal, looking for similar MFP friends :)

Hi,
I'm Olivia, I'm a 21 year old student. I'm 5'1 and I'm about 126kg atm, have been overweight all my life and probably at my highest weight ever right now. Have had some rocky attempts to lose weight over the past few years, lowest weight while dieting/losing weight was about 80kg. I'd ideally like to get down to maybe 50-55kg. I'm getting more n more conscious of the effect my weight has on my health, so really wanna put the work in and get myself where I need to be.

Sooo, any other big girls out there with a lot to lose? Similar stories, weights, etc., for mutual support and guidance, keeping each other in check and under pressure to do our best. :)
