    More recent picture of myself, with my new glasses.

    I always have to make weird faces in pictures otherwise I think I look bored.

    Mine's self-explanatory. It dates from 2002, when I weighed 144 pounds. My goal this time around is 150, so I'm almost there (153.5). It's been my avatar from Day 1 and serves as my inspiration.

    It's me at the last inaugural ball. I was invited as a guest performer (singing and interpretive dance) . I don't have any pictures with the president because the First Lady was jealous of me.

    It was a vacation pic and I was climbing a mountain. It was a great day and I felt fit and happy.

    Just a recent one I had taken, after re-bleaching my blonde "Seth Rollins Chunk" in my hair. I kind of liked the photo.

    I usually have a drawing of Pandora opening the box as my avatar as it matches my user name. My current picture is a progress picture, taken a bit over a year from the moment I decided to make myself my next project. It also marks the start of my first bulk. I chose it as my avatar because it shows for the first time in quite a while that I feel good in my own skin :happy:

    My picture is me and my two year old son. :) I was doing dishes and all was quiet (which is suspicious! LOL those of you with children know what i'm talking about) . When I walked into the living room my son was coloring his face with a marker (non toxic and have no idea how he got it). He looked at me and said "mommy, look! i pretty too!". I think he must have seen me putting on make up for date night with his father a few days ago..LOL :) Had to take a picture and let him color my face too :heart: :flowerforyou:

    wolverine:
    Marvel character. I selected Wolverine because he is short (5'2" - not the hugh jackman 6' movie version), and I am short. But the character has a confidence that doesn't normally befit a man short in stature. i want to embody this in myself. Also, his power is healing himself quickly, and I view this lifestyle change and weight loss as a process of healing of myself. he is generally a calm character with a sarcastic wit but an explosive temper, and these are things that i also identify with. i selected the picture of him covered in shadow, because i am not ready to reveal myself. so i cloak myself in the shadows and wait patiently until the time is right.


    OR
    i picked it because i grew up collecting the comics, and i think this pic is pretty sweet.

    Mine was from an amazing trip back to Saskatchewan that I took this summer with my boyfriend (who met my family for the first time). We had an awesome day at the lake cooking bushpies, and I was the proud chef! Plus, now that winter's on its way, it's nice to have a reminder of summer :)

    I want to google bushpies, but I'm at work, and I'm afraid.

    Lol they are sandwiches cooked over the fire, with whatever you feel like putting in them. The ones I made had pizza filling, but you can make them with any pie filling, or really any filling at all that you'd want in a sandwich. Eggs are good to make breakfast ones!

    it's a forensic reconstruction of a neanderthal woman who lived 50,000 years ago

    the slogan is an attempt to highlight the ridiculousness of the advice given to women not to use heavy weights or to do strenuous exercise or suggesting that doing "men's" push-ups will make your uterus fall out or some such nonsense

    as to why a neanderthal woman...

    1. I look like a neanderthal from the neck downwards, i.e. short, stocky and barrel chested with relatively short limbs (my face looks like a Homo sapiens though, I have a vertical forehead and pointy chin and stuff) and I also don't feel the cold much (they were a cold-adapted species of human).

    2. neanderthals were probably the toughest, strongest humans to have ever lived, and they also had the biggest brains of any humans that ever lived. They survived in the sub-arctic climate of ice age Europe and western Asia with only middle palaeolithic technology (i.e. with fire but without projectile weapons or stitched clothing), including hunting huge animals close range with stone tipped spears. Contrary to popular belief, they were not stupid or brutish; they were highly intelligent and there's a lot of evidence that they spoke using a complex language and were capable of symbolic thought. They also looked after sick, injured, elderly and other vulnerable members of their groups.

    3. I get kind of sick of the definition of "feminine" held by some whereby being strong and feminine are mutually exclusive. Women evolved to be tough and strong and to face and endure difficulty and overcome it (as did men).

    Thanks for the anthropology lesson. Miss studying it. really cool avatar.

    Mine is a happy time of my husband and me sitting on a bench in front of a really cool carriage house in savannah georgia that we rented a few years ago. We just purchased a tripod stand and were trying it out. My husband and I still take care of his Mon. So any chance we have to be together is bliss!

    Ooooh, ok! That sounds good! I googled "you got me pegged" once looking for a gif. Not enough bleach in this world to get rid of those images.

    It's my Halloween picture from last year - Mother Earth. Haven't come up with a costume idea for this year so I'll probaby just wear my old fall back of a spooky Halloween shirt (orange background with ghosty faces in black).
  • Normally hate photos of myself, so don't let anyone take pics of me. Was on a day trip with friends and they took this one without my realizing it. When they showed it to me later, I loved it. Felt slightly embarrassed, though, that it is actually a picture of me sitting at a restaurant about to order a meal!
