Aren't you proud of how you look and what you have accomplished?

You SHOULD be! :D

    I'm proud of my turtle and his love for yum yums. I pimp him out everywhere.

    I'd rather not let the internet world know who I am... unless you know my turtle, of course. Then you might figure it out.

    I think people tend to put pictures of things that mean the most to them. For some it's their abs, tits, bum, etc.

    For others, its their pets, children, partner, etc.

    For me, it's simply fits my current mood :)

    We love our pets and like to show them off. People who live in glass houses.....

    Yes, I am proud of my accomplishment but I prefer to put roses from my garden. I am proud of them too :smile:

    Same reason we don't use our real names.

    My cat inspires me, I want to live a long life so I can be with her. Also, she has saved my life...

    Like to remain anonymous. Also, my "granddaughter" needs to lose weight, too!

    Trust me, no one wants to see my "assets" no matter how much weight I lose. :tongue:

    Hmmm not true. I am using my real name. I use my ticker to show off my boys.

    I think most people are like me and they aren't yet happy with their body. They don't yet feel that the accomplishment has been achieved. I've lost A LOT of weight, but at the same time, I still have A LOT of flab. I am hard pressed to take a picture just of my face that I like. Believe me, when I get there, I will be showing off!!

    I :heart: gerbils. Had them for a long time! Should have stuck with them, breeding horses is far more stressful! :laugh:

    Seeing as I see my profile pic more than anyone else, I'd rather look at something I find pleasing than some image of myself! Ones with me in it don't last for long. :wink:

    To be honest... there aren't that many pictures of me. Tried never to be in front of the camera at my highest weight and now it's kind of a habit. I did, however recently change my profile pic to me instead of my dog... baby steps :)

    Hate having my pic taken, very camera shy and shy in general. There are probably only around 20-30 photos of me in existence in total so seeing the pic of me in my profile is a rare thing...done just so my pals on here get a reminder of who they are talking to...its usually one of my five cats on display, they're much nicer to look at IMO

    Half the stuff I put up as my avatar is mood related, no pets though.

    Uhm.....do I dare say that you might be feeling like a big _ _ _ _ right now??

    Just kidding! You know how fond of you I am. Of course, some of your pics scare the hell out of me, but this isn't one of them :wink:

    I haven't accomplished jack yet, so no full bodied pics of me. I love adding pics to my profile that make me laugh when i first see it, and than continue to giggle over later on everytime I think about it. Lifts my mood up when needed. :)
