    Self-shot with a faux lomography filter (thanks photoshop ^.^)

    The pic makes me feel like an artist, and it's the best I think I've ever looked

    I like how my face looks and it was right before a really good run, so it makes me think back to it whenever i see my posts!

    I usually put up my most current one as it represents me the best :)

    Mine is of my foster dog and the man who saved her from an abusive situation. I foster for Justice Rescue in Pa.
    Because wildlife rehabilitation is my life and I love caring for baby squirrels and this picture was one of the cuter ones that I found on my computer. It's one of my babies from this spring :).

    Thank you both! :heart: :flowerforyou:

    Until I reached goal, my main photo was the one on the left and it served as my inspiration to get back/acceptably close to where I was in 2002. Once I reached goal I took and added the shot on the right, which inspires me to stick with my good habits through maintenance.

    It's not a photo of me. It's a photo of an outfit posted by someone I follow on pinterest because I dig her style. It is, however, a goal-me... I suppose. Me-17lbs+Hope

    It reminds me that if I ever need to wear glasses, I'll be ok if I can find the right frames...

    Plus, it's stopped me getting loads of FRs.

    why? because it's my most recent one. it's me and my love in Huntington Beach, CA earlier this month. I love pictures with him and i, because we don't get to be together as often as we like, so pictures and memories are important to me.

    I switch mine but my current one is not to show off my boobs, in fact that's not usual for me, but it's a good picture of me at the beach, I love the beach, and it reminds me how beautiful I am everytime I look at it, I need reminding a lot.

    Mine is actually an older photo from before I lost any weight. I only changed it because I am considering cutting my hair short again and I liked it when in this picture.

    My celebrity crush touched me. Without photographic evidence, no one would believe me.

    I took it just after my first session of Zumba! It's to remind me that I'm on the right track, and I was really proud of that perspiration glow, haha.

    mine is a reflection of my current progress; my face has leaned up a lot.

    I often take progress photos as a few bad days can make me lose focus and I want to be on top of this!

    Honestly? One of my friends posted a pic of a model that they thought looked like me. I did my best to recreate that pic.

    its a photo that makes me feel proud of how far I have come. Never thought it was possible for me (a mama of two babies) to be able to wear a bikini again. But it can be done....

    I chose this photo because I think it accurately represents me. I have photos that are a lot more flattering and I look younger and/or "prettier" in, but they don't capture the essence of me, or me at my happiest.

    It was taken on Oct 17 of this year, the day before I married my husband. We had just driven from southern Missouri into Colorado that day and very hungry, we found an awesome Asian restaurant and they served us a lovely meal with heart shaped rice (!) We were laughing and excited. It was just a very happy moment.

    On a less special note I remember seeing the photo and thinking, "whoa, I do look much thinner" (than in the past) so to me it seems appropriate for MFP. Even though I was preparing to share a gigantic plate of shrimp and noodles with my then-fiance ;-)

    It's of when I'm travelling! And I look at it to remind me how much fun I had when I was putting the weight on in the last year and i wouldn't change it!!! (Putting on, clearly the weight has to go ha)
