I’ve lost 50lbs and I’m still unhappy with the way I look

I’ve always been a little bigger my whole life. I still remember being in 3rd grade and believing that I was fat even though I wasn’t really. But the summer of 4th grade, where I just sat inside and played Minecraft all day, was when I actually got fat. I went through middle school and most of high school overweight. I tried multiple times throughout high school and middle school to lose weight but I was never successful. I truly believed that because I was overweight nobody would want me. I was severely insecure about myself and hated pictures of myself. But I always thought that if I lost weight that I would be happy. Well, at the start of 2024 I told myself that I would finally lose weight, and I did. I’m 6’ 1’’ and I went from 225 to 175 in about 3 months. I definitely didn’t lose it in a healthy way though. I was damn near anorexic. I would only eat about 700 calories a day and I also made sure that I would burn off every single calorie by walking. I would walk almost 10 miles a day during this time. I understand now that this was extremely unhealthy and I don’t recommend doing this. But now I’ve lost 50 pounds and I’m still unhappy with the way I look. When I was overweight I would imagine people complimenting me on my weight loss, but now when it actually happens I don’t feel anything. I feel like I’m still overweight, I know I’m not but I’m just not happy with myself. I just don’t know what else to do. I’m not trying to lose weight anymore because I know if I did I’d be an unhealthy weight but I just still am so unhappy with myself.
