New here, struggling forever

Hello. I am new to this site. I had joined it a while back but never used it for some reason. I heard about it again today while listening to Fat 2 Fit Radio. I've been struggling to find a place for myself in the online weight loss world. I have bounced from a few paid sites and free sites to finally ending up here. The paid sites I have tried always seemed like too much drama on their message boards. People judging each other. I can't stand that personally. When your on a weight loss site you should support each other in your struggles not hurt each other. Anyway here is a little about me.
I'm a 30 year old mother of a 1 year old girl. I am married to an amazing person. While my husband has never battled with a weigh issue he stands behind me 100%. I have been overweigh my whole life. I've tried so many different things to get the weight off, but had little to no success. Had lost 70lbs before I got pregnant with our daughter, but I gained it all back and then some since.
My ultimate goal is to be at a healthy weight. I want this weight off for good. I want to be able to run after my daughter and play active games with her without getting winded or tired to fast. I want to be able to set a good example for her so that she will live a healthy life. I never want her to follow in my footsteps and know the feelings of being teased and tormented by other children because of her weight, as I was. My weight has held me back from too much for too long. It's time for a change.
