Finally pictures Lost 93 pounds according to MFP

Well, it's been such a long road for me. I started out at 285 pounds. I am now about 194-195# I was as low as 179, but I slipped into my old behaviors.
I am a mom to seven children ages 14 years old to 2 years old. I am a writer for Watchfit.com. I write about my experience losing weight offer motivation.
I started here at MFP counting calories, and making friendships. I have had a very few months but getting back into it.
To help myself, I let go of a job I loved to help save my sanity. I also decided working out is as important as showering every day. Being unfit and not attaining my goal is NOT an option.
Inspire others and be a friend to others. I try to do this every day.
I hope this has inspired someone they can do it with hard work.. I am also hoping my honesty here will inspire me to keep going.
Feel free to add me as a friend if you want to:)
