    Sounds like you have found your motivation, I had a similar event once. Now all you have to do is get started toward your goal. I put twenty pounds back on so I am restarting.

    I have a picture of myself the motivates me too. It's taken of me from behind, beside a friend who calls herself chubby. So when I remember that I was bigger than her, I think "hmm maybe I look chubby to other people?" That being said I still like the photo. My friend and I accidentally wore almost the same thing that day (khaki shorts and a red shirt) and we're doing the dishes and looking over our shoulders at the camera and smiling. So it's still a cute photo.

    It's not always a strong motivator, but it does cross my mind every once in a while.
