Seeking weight loss/fat loss/fitness improvement accountability partner who knows keto

Hello /r/loseit denizens!

BLUF - I'm seeking an accountability partner for weight loss, fat loss, and fitness improvement. Specifically, I'm looking for someone to keep me honest on my eating and fitness program. I will be doing a ketogenic diet, as I know I respond well to it, so I'm looking for someone who isn't going to freak out when they see high fat/low carb choices.

A bit of background:

I've recently come to the realization I (still) have an eating problem. I'm a 33 year old man in relatively decent shape, at least performance-wise. However, after today I realized I need help. As a military member I have to meet body fat standards, and for the first time in ten years I've failed a fitness test - my waist has just gotten too big. I've had a rather tumultuous past year, and despite handling the many challenges thrown at me very well, I fell back on comfort eating. I went from 235 pounds in January to 275 pounds today, and from a 34 inches measured waist to 41 inches (Note: I'm 6'3", large build - probably not going to ever go much lower than 210. I was once just under 400, so I do know how to eat healthy and lose weight).

Anyway, as I mentioned above I have an eating problem - food addiction. A week before a fitness test I knew I was going to have a problem passing, I was doing things like eating an entire jar of cookie butter in a sitting. Clearly this isn't normal, rational behavior. I often buy boxes of crackers (I love Cheese Nips!) and finish them in 1-2 sittings.

TL:DR in case BLUF was skipped: Fat guy looking for someone to keep him honest on eating and exercise.
