    So you lost the weight and obviously now you're more health conscious than a normal person, because you know what it's like to be the fat kid. It's not rocket science, you're being overly conscientious of your weight and heath to help compensate for before. What you need to do is deal with the psychological trauma you experienced when you were younger. Getting picked on is far more devastating than most people realize or are willing to admit. This health bend you're in is nothing more than a coping mechanism. Now granted, it's probably one of the best coping mechanisms ever if you're treating your body right, but you still need to deal with the pain that you suffered. Otherwise a seemingly harmless quirk might develop into something a bit more serious.

    Honestly, you look gorgeous :) You're a very beautiful girl :)

    The reason why you have a low self-esteem is because you were picked on by people before. That's why you automatically started to think that you don't look good. When people go through hard rough times they often start having depression, social anxiety, low self-esteem and stuff like that.

    You look great and there's absolutely no reason for you to be sad in life. Good luck to you :)

    what your asking through this is just for some attention hunny.

    you need to first love yourself in order for people to love you (i know its cliche but true)

    inner beauty and intelligence is always way more important than just looks.

    you are beautiful the way you are and you dont need to change anything.
