    This is cute... I love how you are looking up longingly :)
    I do the same thing with my old photos so I know how you feel! You can do this though!!

    I have "now and before" pics too - namely my profile picture (not my current one) and I'm using it as some extra motivation. I want to be able to wear that little black dress I own! :) If you've been there once, you can be there again. It'll take time and patience and some focused work!

    I do this too... I was 310 and went down to 205... and I look at the 205 pics and wish to be there (and below)...

    I ballooned up to 285. I'm 267 right now.

    Want to be friends?

    Although i dont really know how you feel (Since I have always been a big girl through my teens), I look at pics of when I was little (like.. under 12) and I get upset. Even though I know children are smaller by nature, I still get jealous of my younger self for being less than 120lbs. As soon as I hit puberty my weight began to fluctuate and by 20 I was at my highest of 230lbs.
