47 year old, in Phase 2, a buddy would be great!

I am a 49 yr old mother of 4- boys are 15 and 12; girls are 11 and 8.  i know about the emotional eating-every day around 2 pm i start craving sugar.. chocolate cookies etc but my favorite is a coffee drink with espresso and caramel and white chocolate.  i was drinking one every day!!  i am so busy with them that i really struggle to find any balance for myself.  i have always exercised alot but am recently plagued by injuries (rotator cuff tear, biceps tear) and have arthritis.  but my biggest motivation is my 72 yr old mom who barely gets out anymore due to morbid obesity and knee problems and degenerative spine disease (all of which i have inherited except for the morbid obesity).i currently weigh 138 and am 5'3" but this is 10# more than i always weighed.  i am trying to exericse smarter and eat healthier so i can be around to enjoy my grandchildren!!  i just started phase 2; lost 4 # in phase 1.  my biggest struggle is finding time to make sure i have the right food and preparing it.  have to have portable options as i am driving around alot. 
  my girls also fight more than the boys but they are closer maybe.  they actually get physical with each other and the screaming!!  everything is a national emergency.  but they do more with my husband and me.  the boys like to play on their xboxes when they are not in sports or at school.
  sorry so long!  i may not be best buddy for you, different phases but let me knw!

I am a working mom 49 years old and determined to enjoy the summer and not hide out in the 2 skirts I bought to fit me last summer.  So far, I have lost between 8-10 pounds, it keeps bouncing back and forth and I have 20 more to go.  I am afraid to come off of Phase 1 because everything has slowed down anyway.  I had to take two weeks off from exercising because my sister was in the hospital and I had to stay with her. I really would like to find a diet buddy to work with, I think everyone here is tired of hearing me talk about it!  I'm not sure how these message boards work, but hoping to connect with someone that can help me through this.  I don't have time for meetings, but I do have to be in front of the computer a lot!  I am a fundraiser for a nonprofit organization and am under a great deal of stress with the economy!  I hope you are doing well on this adventure, I have been successful on South Beach before, but just got lazy over the last three years. I hope it will work again!
