I'm 5'7 and I fluctuate between 137-145, but I still feel like I look disgusting and that my stomach has a pouch or that I have love handles etc. I hate walking past the mirror all the time and sometimes try to even avoid it. I always think people are lying when they say I'm pretty or if it's a guy, that he only thinks im pretty because hes lonely, doesn't like himself or desperate. I don't want to think these things about myself because I know their not true, but my heart feels so much pain because of them for some reason

I feel the exact same way, I recently recovered from anorexia and it is hard for me to except my recovering body but I find eating as healthy as I can makes me feel more like I'm supposed to look this way. I also find that things that keep me happy and occupied such as running,drawing ,cooking, etc can help distract me from negative thoughts about my body. I hope you can distract yourself or learn to love your body in the future
