I struggled with depression a lot when I was growing up. And to deal with it, I ate my feelings, and gained a ton of weight. Even though I’ve lost most of the weight, (down from 350lbs to 200lbs) my body is never going to look good due to the stretch marks and loose skin.
Hey, you’re killing it. I’m proud of you.
Stretch marks and loose skin are signs of your achievement, as far as I’m concerned.
But i also understand that lack of alignment with conventional beauty srandards can be frustrating, and that’s valid.
Maybe you wont quite attain your ‘ideal’ form but that doesn’t mean you cant “look good”. Looking good is more about fit than form and getting a good fit is absolutely attainable. I’ve seen so many imperfect-bodied people looking downright snazzy in what they wear.
Remember: our flaws are magnified in our own vision and others may not even notice.
