    My boyfriend "Loki" and I got our souls taken by a photographer covering an attempt at a record-breaking pillow fight. He happened to catch me bashing Loki in the face with a stuffed sheep.

    Cool story bro. :smokin:

    I'm afraid I'm still not quite sure what all the "blackout" pics are for...?
    Two or 3 of my friends received messages about how inappropriate their profile pics were. I have no problem with people disliking pics, but to take the time time message the person and chastise them goes a bit far. We are doing this in their honor...the profile pic nazis.

    It is because someone posted a thread about profile pics and some comments were very mean and uncalled for. Some of the pics were just people who were proud to show off their accomplishments (bikini's, ab shots etc). So alot of us have decided just for today to put up a black blank picture.

    The pic is from last summer, when I met my son's love and now wife. It was a fantastic day. I was still 5 lbs lighter then than I am now (sigh).

    there are way too many uptight people on this site. LOL
    i see the thread with the lady complaining about the swear words on people's blog was deleted by this morning. you would think people would have better things to do with their time.

    It's a picture of my Mii from Wii Fit. My Mii is fat, especially compared to the rest of my family's Mii's since they're all skinny. I thought it was kind of funny.

    A pic I took of myself after a night out for my best friend's birthday celebration. It was about 2 weeks into my lifestyle change so it's how I look about 18 pounds heavier than I do today. It'll also be the before pic I use once I get to my goal size and do one of those fun before/after success story threads!!

    I chose a butterfly for my weight loss ticker and a caterpillar becoming a butterfly for my profile picture to represent me "shedding" this unhealthy over weight body. It represents me becoming the active & healthy person one the outside, that I feel is trapped on the inside.

    I started working hard with a personal trainer to become the lean, mean, muscle machine I know I can be. I love the saying on the t-shirt, and it cracked me up that an obviously out of shape guy was wearing it!

    This was taken in March (2011) in St. Lucia. My husband, son and I at my best friends wedding on the beach. It was so beautiful! I felt amazing, I had reached my goal of losing 40 pounds the week before we left to go. I was so proud of myself. :flowerforyou:

    Mine is from Florence, Italy on top of the Duomo, the most beautiful cathedral I have ever seen! I had gone to visit him while he was studying in Germany so he could see the city I had studied in the year before. The most amazing place and trip of my life! :smile:

    Mine was taken by one of my BFF's that came to take me out for my birthday two weeks ago! This was round one... and I had too many to mention that night, but I liked the pic and I can tell in my face that I've lost 30 pounds!!! Plus, the scarf is one of my fav new things I bought myself for the summer!!!! I think I may hit happy hour again when I reach my goal!

    This was before my best friends wedding. I was having my hair done, i was sick as a dog with bronchitis and a lung infection and im wearing no make up, not a single bit. Normally i hate my pic taken even in full make up and not sick, but this is me, completely bare and for some reason i love this pic?!

    Me at a reading. I'm a writer and I love reading my work before audiences. I think I was at my heaviest ever. And, it was at this time that I realized that I was no longer comfortable in my clothes and I started looking for ways to control my intake and my exercise.

    I went fishing 2x in one week. Passed through this old farm town and thought wow, how tidy main street was. I promised myself the next time through I would take a pic. That's my jeep in front.
