Support, Encouragement, and Understanding & Friends

I am not exactly new to MFP but today is the day that I have chosen to take it seriously. I have never been around people who have the same goal as I (weightloss) and who could support my wishes to become a better person. After my most embarrassing moment of life yesterday I am determined to lose weight and I am hoping to find support and encouragement from people who once or are still in my shoes...I would appreciate any input---> please feel free to add me
