Self image is a hard thing to deal with when it's negative, because no matter what others say it's still that little voice inside of you saying the bad things. I've had to deal with some negative self images myself, and I can't say I'm completely over them. I just keep reminding myself that my inner beauty will shine no matter what I look like on the outside.

Dieting and exercising go hand in hand from my experience. Your hubby does a lot of physical work so he might not want to but ask if he'd like to do some light exercises with you, even walking helps a lot if you do it regularly. If he can't maybe you can find someone at work or a nearby friend to do something with. I don't like gyms because I won't want to pay to exercise but that's just me.

As for you being stupid thinking this way? No, it's pretty common. I hope we can help you enough to get past it though :3
