Do you ever regret not taking a before picture?

I do - 35lbs down and at my supposed goal weight now, but still just see fat when I look in the mirror. A before shot might help me see the difference properly!1

i had been taking pictures since I re-started at the beginning of the year. through a series of phone switches (new phone, then broke that and got a replacement), I somehow lost all my pictures. that was nearly 80 lbs of progress. I decided not to continue the photos after that because I wouldn't have that before/after. Now another 30 lbs down I wish I at least started up again. I wouldn't have had the full transition, but it would have been something.0

I completely regret not taking proper before pics.
I would take some, then I ended up deleted them because I was so embarrassed and ashamed with how badly I let myself go.
The photo I use as my before pic is not very good or clear, but it's the best I have. It's a during pic after I lost about 25 out of the 80 I lost.
I would love to have had a visual reference point at my heaviest to really see how far I have come.
When I see transformation photos with people in the same pose, wearing the same clothes I find it so inspiring and wish I would have done the same.
But I didn't. I'm still so very proud of myself for losing all the weight and heading towards year 4 of keeping it all off.
Congrats on being 15 pounds down! Keep it going!3 -
Yup, lost about 110 pounds and i didn't take any picture at start or along the way due to not really at the time wanting to see my body more than i had to. Do i regret it now? yes i do but i'm happy with how it ended anyhow!1

I didn't think to take picture. I honestly never thought I'd loose more than my typical 175, and when I got below that I surprised myself. And only then I regretted not taking pictures to compare to0

My daughter told me I would regret not taking before pictures.... she was right lol. I do wish I had.1

The first time I lost the weight I didn't have measurements or photos from before- only a vague idea of what I weighed. I regretted it! Take the photos!1
