I've met somebody!

Needing encouragement, motivation, and accountability
Hello, MFP world! I need some help getting started with this again. I've tried this a few times before but I've always lacked the long-term motivation to really get the job done. I've been overweight since very early childhood and as a young adult now, it shames me greatly to admit that I am morbidly obese. Not a very…
