So I'm a guy who has had a lot of problems with weight in his life. I was 305 up until 2010 when I decided to lose weight. In the process, however I developed a really bad eating disorder and fell to 140 with the help of anorexia and body dysmorphia.

After my ex helped me out of that dangerous hole, I stupidly ballooned back up to 217, which I finally turned around again in December. I am now at 165 pounds, and am in the best shape of my life, with one big issue. Loose skin. My chest, torso, and legs harbor a lot of it and I am very worried about showing it off around  my new girlfriend who is a very petite, healthy person. I am still in the process of working on getting the skin tightened up, but I am still terrified of this becoming a relationship questioning event.

Everything about the relationship is going great, and she is showing no signs of trepidation when it comes to physicality or sex, but this is also where that body dysmorphia may be coming in. I'm not sure. 

Basically, I am wondering if anyone has had a similar situation and can shed some light or advice on this. It would be very much appreciated.
