Come on, who doesn't wanna take pictures of a face like that?!
I guess the point is, I've always been the one behind the camera. That way, I get to document the important moments while staying out of the photos themselves. I love looking at the old pictures, and that way, I can remember how happy I was or how much fun we all were having without having to remember how huge I was.

Now that I'm starting to lose weight, though, I find myself in the opposite situation. I wish I had more pictures of myself at my biggest! First, that way I could see just how far I've come. I can feel the difference, but sometimes it's hard to see physical changes when looking in the mirror - because you see yourself every day, you don't notice slow but steady changes.

And second, so that I never, ever forget what 345 pounds felt like. And how unhappy I really was. And how much I missed out on because of the physical and emotional restrictions.

Okay, THAT is a cute face! LOL Interesting, to be on the opposite end of now wanting to see more photos, oh_. Still, that doesn't stop you from getting one now - certainly not at the highest weight, but a lot higher than you're gonna be!! 28 lbs lost and counting, right? Great post, very insightful. xx
