What pictures do you take to show milestones?

I took a picture of myself holding a 40 pound bag (really big and actually covered me from neck to upper thighs) to show that I'd lost THAT MUCH weight. I am wondering what I can use for my next "demo" pic when I reach 60 or 80 pounds... How about when I make it to 100 pounds?!? Ideas, suggestions? Do any of you do this too?

    100 pounds of marshmallows. That would be a lot of stuff.

    That`s a really cool idea.
    Hmmm...bricks?
    I like the kid idea. And the marshmallow one. But I'd probably end up eating all the marshmallows personally :P

    I just changed my profile picture to show the dog food picture, if y'all wanted to see. Now, as I lose more weight, it will be fun to ask friends and neighbors if they have any kids weighing about 60 pounds. LOL

    I always hear people making references like "I lost about a whole leg."

    You could cut someone's leg off and pose with that.

    When I get my size down far enough I am going to have my picture taken in my wedding dress. Other than that, I am not sure, but I love the idea of interesting photos, holding the lost amount, or in some way commemorating the achievement.

    Key is same location, same front/ side pictures. Similar style clothing (so bulkiness isn't an issue).

    Sadly, I'd probably have to hold a bowl with a gold fish in it at this point. LOL.
