I need help...where do I begin?

[KristyBDJ]

I have recently decided to finally get serious about weight loss and my health in general. I had my 4th baby in Feb. and I have realized that I gain a size every year...at least! Anyway, I don't have a lot friends and need some support, other than my DH who is wonderful btw. I have made running my new goal and need to work on my eating habits as well. I am hoping that I can find some great support networks here and combine my love for Disney with my weight loss goals. I am hoping to run the WDW marathon but not until 2011. We have a trip booked in Dec. 09 and doubt that I will be able to go back in Jan '10. Anyway, let me know if anyone can point to any people or groups on here that would work for me. I am going to post this in the events/competition area as well for help with the running part of my goals.
I'll give my basic. info in case it helps:

age: 26
weight: around 180 lbs
weight loss goal: 40-50 lbs.
running goal: 1/2 marathon by Sept. (there's a local one then)
location: Appleton, WI (in case anyone lives near by)

Thanks for your help guys!!
