A lot of guys who think like that are better looking than about 98% of other guys but are perfectionists and not satisfied there are 2% who are better looking. So, most likely you are not fat but probably also not ripped; well there is nothing to stop a guy from lowering his body fat percentage and increasing strength.
Even without weights, a gym membership etc a guy can build strength/muscle. See this guy's videos...

Join sports teams at school; most schools have at least one no cut sport each season.
As long as a guy is changing to a standard medium to short hairstyle that fully suits and standard prep style of clothing, he might get a little attention at first, if he had previously been wearing a non standard haircut or clothing such as emo style but if he likes his new look or acts like he does, the attention is going to be short lived and positive.
It's difficult to give specific advice since there is no indication of the desired style of haircut or clothing.
Guys who wear standard medium to short styles do so because the styles are easy to groom, can be designed to fully suit most guys and are what employers expect and most women prefer.
The general idea with guy's medium to short styles is to maximize and minimize the volume of hair in various areas of the head to create the illusion of an oval face shape, considered the ideal shape, with a somewhat more boxy than rounded skull shape when the face is viewed from the front and in side profile, a somewhat more rounded than boxy skull shape at the back of the head.

"Oval: The oval face is the ideal shape. It is designated as the "egg" shape. It is wider at the forehead and tapers to a well rounded chin. This type of face looks equally becoming with hair worn low or high on the head; and likewise, either a center or side part or no part at all is becoming, depending somewhat on other facial characteristics."
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" pg129.
A good barber can usually design a regular haircut or one of the short pomp(pompadour) styles-crew cut, ivy league(long crew cut), flat top crew cut- to fully suit most young guys. In contrast, relatively few guys fully suit a butch, brush cut(long butch) or burr(short butch.) The main difference between a short pomp style and a butch, burr, brush cut is that a butch, burr, brush cut is a uniform short length on top while the top hair of a short pomp style is longest at the front hairline and graduates shorter in length to the crown which allows a barber to design a short pomp style to fully suit most combinations of male skull shape, frontal hairline, face shape etc Most girls are fine with whatever standard medium to short style a guy chooses to wear as long as the style fully suits and is kept clean and looking well groomed and the guy doesn't spend a lot of time on his hair. If a guy wants to go to a shorter style for the summer or one of his sporting activities, that is fine with most girls too even when she prefers that he wear a somewhat longer style. Around here most high school and college guys are wearing regular haircuts with long tapers on the back/sides, though since last summer a not insignificant number have switched to regular haircuts with medium or semi-short tapers on the back/sides, ivy leagues or crew cuts and recently some have been growing out to regular haircuts with extra long tapers on the back/sides. Starting from a butch or short crew cut, a guy can grow out his hair and have it look great as it grows out if he keeps up with haircuts, getting a slightly longer style each haircut. Assuming an average rate of hair growth of 1/8" per week and haircuts every three weeks, the following styles are a haircut apart: butch, short crew cut; medium crew cut; short ivy league; ivy league; long ivy league; short regular haircut, regular haircut. A photo is the best way to describe a style to a barber or stylist.

Some barbers consider that all crew cuts should have a flat top, so it is best to not rely on words alone for even a widely recognized style like a crew cut.

Search the internet for images of football(soccer)star Lukas Podolski for examples of ivy league and crew cut styles. A minute dab of control wax aka butch wax will keep the hair looking well groomed at crew cut and ivy league length. A butch comb also helps with grooming the short pomp styles- the small, flat, plastic, oval, pocket brushes that one finger fits through and barbers sell for about a dollar. A boar bristle military brush is usually available for a few dollars and while too large for a guy to carry in his pocket, is nice to have at home.

An ivy league, is considered to be a convertible haircut as it can be styled several ways...
1) Lightly waxed, side parted and brushed to the side with a short pompadour at the front hairline.
2)) Lightly waxed, side parted and brushed to the side without a short pompadour at the front hairline.
3) Lightly waxed and brushed back off the forehead like a crew cut.
4) Lightly waxed with the top hair brushed forward and the short bangs on the forehead like a forward brush.
5) Lightly waxed with the top hair brushed forward and the short bangs brushed back off the forehead like a crew cut.

The flat top crew cut is practically not seen at all on young guys at the moment but has usually been the most popular short style. In the 50's and 60's at least the first half till the beatles influence made short styles almost anathema, it was the most popular short style and then from the mid 80s to around 2000, was practically the only short style worn by young guys.

The beauty that matters most is internal. Don't be afraid of being judged and ridiculed because 98% of the time 1 of these 3 things will happen :people won't really care, people won't notice, or people will actually like it. What matters is that you feel confident with what you have. We live in a society where being chubby doesn't matter if your personality is great. So be someone people enjoy being around as I'm sure your friends feel. The way you are is just fine just show the world. And go for it /he worst you could do is live with regrets of not getting the changes you'd like.

Nobody know how you really feel inside. Plus, there are so many kinds of beauty. Not just one cruel, unreachable standard. Think of something you like about yourself. Anything. And enhance it. Little by little, change one thing at a time. Till you like more and more what you see in the mirror. Start today! :) I just went through a major change and I love life now. More than ever.

First, stop being a fatāss. Nobody likes fat people sexually except for black guys. If you're fat, then don't even bother with your "style" because it won't change how people see you, which is a fat ugly bītch. Get into shape, get skinny, and then work on your look.

With deep respect, honey don't ever let other people define you. Love yourself, stop thinking because then you find yourself feeling fat and ugly. Just Be You! And most importantly, hold your head up high (with your new style) and walk with confidence and never, ever be intimidated by those that try to judge you or bully you with nasty words. God Bless You.

don't worry about what other people might think. do what you want and what makes you happy! =) you can always cut or dye your hair, and there are ways to get your desired weight without under-eating, but remember, being pretty on the inside is more important than the outside <3
