How do you handle weight loss, loose skin, and body dysmorphia while dating?

Hi everyone! I (F22) have lost around 80 pounds now. For some info, I’ve never been in a relationship before, nevertheless had any romantic situation with a guy. Now that I’ve lost a lot of weight I’m kind of dealing with the whole “not sure how to handle guys” thing. I really want to start dating but after losing so much weight I’m still not happy with my body. I’m 5”7 and 184 lbs and after losing so much weight im faced with issues like loose skin and BD. It’s like I look like completely different people in every mirror and photos. I literally have no idea bout how I truly look. People have told me I look fine and guys have tried to talk to me, but all I see in the mirror is a mess. I feel like if I get with a guy, I’m selling a lie because I look so different with no clothes on. Or if I post pictures online they might think im a catfish if they see my lose skin that can be covered in photos. I feel like I can never be good enough for a guy and it really hurts. I considered just waiting to date until I hit my goal weight (~150lb) and get cosmetic surgery but I have no idea how long that would even take to afford (the surgery is upwards of $12,000). I feel like my whole life is on hold because I’m so disgusted with my body even after doing what I was supposed to do and taking control of my health. Do other people deal with this? Any advice on what to do? I’m sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, I’m not sure where else to put this!
