After I gained 50 + pounds. I would LOVE to get back to my Before photo.

Ever look at old photos and wish you looked like that again? I do, all the time, which is bad because you lose motivation, but sometimes you just can't help it. I know I'm not a lone in this.

I'd love to see others before pictures.

    I always see old photos of myself, and I can't believe how great I looked, and how self conscious I was!

    I would LOVE to be back to my old size again, which is why I'm working so hard to get there!

    I feel exactly the same! I used to think I was so fat and hated shopping and pictures and now I cant wait to get back to that weight. It's still about 20 pounds over where I want to end up but it's closer than I am now.

    Yes I do! Weird but even when I was at my smallest I didn't like my body because I thought I was too skinny.. I gained some weight and got to a 9 and then thought I was fat (ya I had issues). I gained like another 60lbs and I now wonder why I wasn't happy when I was thinner.. go figure lol.

    Right! Even in my before picture when, yes I was still overweight, but was still slimmer than many in my weight range, I didn't like the way I looked. But now being at this weight I WISH to be that way again. ha.

    I think I used to look pretty hot. Back then I felt fat but damn, I was 60 lbs skinnier and I would be more than happy to be that small again.

    I'll play!

    This one is just for fun, me in 8th grade (so, what is that? Age 14?) at 145 Lbs...I was that weight for all of 2 seconds and my goal weight now is higher than that (164)

    Here I am at 21, around 190 pounds. I was this weight for a lot longer than anywhere near the 145 lb range. Thought I was SO fat but am totally not...that is a size medium T Shirt.

    Then I gained 68 pounds (over the course of 8 yrs), now you wanna talk about needing to lose some weight!
