Want friends to help motivate me

I am a 36-year-old woman who is been obese for half of my life. Current weight is 282.8 and I'm looking to get to 200lbs to start. I need help with motivation.

    Hi-I can tell you that just taking one action move is the key to get going. It doesn't have to be big. Try either getting up 39 min earlier or making time after dinner to take a regular paced walk to the end of our block or around it. You will start to feel so good that you started. Good luck!

    Feel free to add me... 48 years old, started at 260 in November 2016, currently 188 with about another 23ish pounds to go... I say ish because that goal weight has changed three times since I started. It went from 199 to 185 and now that I am in the 180's I have decided upon 160-165... we will see how I feel when I leave the 170's if that number will change again... LOL I log daily and do my best to interactive with my friends. Support is great... Motivation comes from within... find that and you are going to be GOLDEN!!! Lets do this!
