Body image issues?

Today was moderately interesting... I have another conversation with an acquaintance of mine (not sure if were "friends") about my body shape.  The way my body looks is something that I have to accept, but I realize I have to deal with it everyday.  I have to accept that the vision that others have of me is not necessarily the reality and how I see MYSELF is what is important.  


When the topic of weight comes up, people tell me that "you look fine"....   I guess it's because they want to help, but it doesn't help.  It almost implies that I am losing weight for them, or for their approval.  I have to be happy with myself.  I'm the person who has to live with my body and be happy with what I see in the mirror...
