Depressed

My namr is kandace im a single mother 32 yrs old weighing in at 227 in size 16/18 jeans (sadly).. But im done being this size, so OK so I'm one of those women that really needs a support system to get thru something such as dieting or lifestyle changes I have the mindset but need a friend/ coach to help motivate me and get me thru at least the first 10-15 lbs because that's the hardest for me? If anyone who was plus size in the beginning of their journey and has now lost a lot please message me if your interested in being a friend/ coach/ motivation.. Thanks for your time...
