Saw pics of myself that made me proud

I've been maintaining at 185 lbs for a while now. Feel physically good, more energetic.
I participated in a ramp build for Habitat for Humanity this weekend, of which many pictures were taken by members of my group. Upon seeing them, I feel very good about my physique. How I appear to others isn't the top priority for my weight management goals. But I was able to see myself in those pictures and think "wow!" I'm not terribly muscly, but I do show some tone.
Also, I apparently mooned my group while hanging over a rail with a circular saw. So there's that.
But of course no one got pics.

That is awesome! I know that feeling (not the mooning), but the getting a glimpse of yourself, and actually being happy (or pretty content) with what you see!!
Way to go!!1 -

That is a really great feeling! I felt that way earlier this summer when I went to a concert with friends and saw photos of our small group sitting on blankets on the lawn. I looked a little smaller and fitter than I imagine myself. For many many years, I would cringe (and let's be honest...even cried a few times, later in private) about similarly candid photos of myself.
