Probably because last year you were so happy to be able to fit smaller sizes, being more fit and were just happy to even slightly be able to pull it off. This year, as you are getting really close to goal (and is your goal even realistic?), you are probably seeing your imperfections... the things that aren't quite perfect 'yet' (and, btw, even at goal you will find things you wish were different) and so this year you are being harder on yourself. Last year was, "Look how far I've come!" This year it's, "Look how far I have to go." mentality.
The latter is not a healthy mentality. You have come far, you are doing great... just keep up the healthy lifestyle and be proud of yourself and your body, lumps and all. That kind of confidence is the sexiest of all.
