    because I liked it. And it's a picture of me, face, smiling, looking pleasant. I didn't want a body picture up front because it's not all about the body.

  • I chose this as my main photo, because it was taken last night, before I went to see the Trans Siberian Orchestra and its a fun pic.

    The one I have at the moment is from a dance rehearsal (the last one before our dress rehearsal, and a friend of mine that is a professional photographer took photos), although it looks like we are just running at the park. My husband and kids and I were all in the performance together, so that was a lot of fun. I just put up pics when a pic gets taken. My ticker photo is of me and it's my motivation to always work towards my best fitness.

    Mine shows my progression, from 258# to 180#, this pic shows a loss of 20#, I will change it when I lose another 20# and another 20#...

    Mine is from my anniversary this November. I was so happy and we had such a good time - then I looked at the pics and it didn't match what i saw in my brain. So that's my starting pic. My goal for next anniversary (my 10th!!) is pictures I am proud of.

    I rotate through mine depending on my mood and how I want people to perceive me. I'm happy today so this one works.

    I change my profile pictures often to help me monitor myself and track progress.

    Because I stepped out of my self-imposed costume box for Halloween this year, in a costume that is at least 2 sizes smaller than anything I've worn in recent years. I should probably change it, but don't have anything good to change it to, at the moment. :D

    I love taking pictures. Especially when I'm having a particularly cute day. And my husband likes to tell me when I'm especially adorable. So I make him take a picture of me on those days. Then I post it. I change it about once a month, if a photo turns out well.

    Can you explain your motivation for picking your photo?

    Because I'm a Veteran, and a member of the Royal British Legion Riders Branch. I have some pride in both, and the poppy speaks for itself.

    It was after a Christmas party and I was feeling beautiful. My face looks so different 40 pounds down. I'm excited to see the difference this year :)

    I changed mine as this is what I look like now, I did have a topless pic where you could almost see some definition, got a couple of message saying how good I looked and I felt like a fraud.

    It's good in a way though as I'm determined to get back to looking that way - it was only a month ago.

    My legs are my favorite. In my current pic I was trying to showcase my tibialis anterior muscles.
