New account, new attempt..

I used MFP last year with good results, but through illness, health issues, diet mistakes and tons of excuses, I ended up one year later 13 lbs heavier than I started out. Never been this heavy in my life and it has to stop. Now! Lol
So, a week ago I created a new account, evaluated what went right and wrong, and am starting over... for what feels like the millionth time but hopefully the final time. I could use some friends to help keep each other on the straight and narrow, motivate each other and commiserate when things don't go too well.
