I have my pics ready, but have no clue how to paste them directly in the post instead of attaching them. Ugh!

PLEASE DON'T QUOTE:
Don't know how to paste photos so....
OK, my turn. This isn't a length check since I suck at pic taking. Just wanted to show my progress. Pic heavy.
Identify your 2012 progress. Thickness mostly. My goal was to get my hair back in good health this year.
What thing(s) do you feel contributed the MOST to your progress? Not giving up and trying different things until I found what worked.
What challenges did you participate in during 2012? none
What's your key word of advice for strong, healthy hair? Don't give up, don't fix what isn't broken. If you find something that works, stick with it.
Is there anything you'll change in 2013? My PJism.

The first pic is from Sept. I was frustrated and ready to give up. The last three pics are December. So glad I kept on trucking.
ETA: What length am I considered to be?

Identify your 2012 progress. (length, edges, thickness, etc.): I went from TWA to SL in the last 12 months.
What thing(s) do you feel contributed the MOST to your progress?: consistent deep conditioning and protective styling. I wore wigs the entire 2012.
What challenges did you participate in during 2012? I was in 2 inches in 4 months.
What's your key word of advice for strong, healthy hair?: deep condition and protective styling
Is there anything you'll change in 2013?: I'll try to switch to buns for Summer. I'll also try to simplify my regimen and keep it simple.
Jan 2012:
Dec 2012:
ETA: I meant to say switch to buns in Spring instead of Summer.

Lovely progress ladies. I hate that i can't contribute because of my lack of proper picture documentation to track progress. I gotta change that for 2013 though.
HHG 2013 everyone!

What thing(s) do you feel contributed the MOST to your progress?
Vitamins definitely I have low iron have had it since June 2011 I think and it definitely affects hair and how you feel so with the vitamin challenge I was able to kind of get in a habit if taking iron and garlic pills(didn't start the garlic til June I believe) and I think megatek helped also a lot
What challenges did you participate in during 2012?
Vitamin and apl challenge
What's your key word of advice for strong, healthy hair?moisture.learning what products works and what's best for keeping moisture is what's working for me and also learning how to incorporate moisture into you everyday protective style regimen.
Is there anything you'll change in 2013?dying it twice a yr I think I would have made my goal length if I wasn't dying it as much(2x per yr) so I'm going to hold off on my planned January one and wait until I hit bsl or in September because I just want to work on thickness and length I could always dye later. Also I'm going to get more wigs as a mean of protective style because than I could dec under my wig or dec everyday. The possibilities are endless.

This is pretty much exactly a year. The first pic is a twist out. It was in Louisiana so it just started to look ridiculous...The second pic is of a wash and go. Which I actually got to last for an entire week!! It was a few weeks ago...These were actually exactly a year apart give or take a few days.
ETA...My friend had just done the big chop!

My pics of today sorta sucks. I lost my adapter for my camera so I took a picture on my phone of a picture on my camera. 
I haven't had spectacular growth like some of the ladies on this board but at least it has been growing.
**One day I will put a pic from Aug 2010 when I first started.... but for now..
1st: July 2011
2nd: July 2012
3rd/4th: Today
5th Amount trimmed today... I had my mom do it and she just snipped without any hesitation. She cut just the right amount tho
ETA: I forgot to answer the q's
Identify your 2012 progress. (length, edges, thickness, etc.)
Length and my hemline is looking better
What thing(s) do you feel contributed the MOST to your progress?
Bunning... I didn't DC nearly as much as I like to this year but at least my hair was in some cute buns this year to protect it.
What challenges did you participate in during 2012?
Alot... BSL 2012, WSL 2013, sulfur and MN. I only did the sulfur and MN for about a month cause my mom really is allergic to the mix.. maybe its just the sulfur.
What's your key word of advice for strong, healthy hair?
Patience. Do what you have to do and know you will get to the end result eventually.
Is there anything you'll change in 2013?
I really want to wear wigs more next year.I bought two just for next year. I want to also DC more.
