Think back. Do your remember those moments you had as a kid where you just felt comfortable in your own skin? Where you could go swimming and laugh and not second guess yourself for even a moment. Those times where you didn't bother looking in the mirror?
That's the goal. Forgetting yourself for a moment. Unfortunately your sense of self worth has gotten irreparably tangled with your perception of your physical appearance. It's hard to undo that damage.
I'd recommend doing something that you're really proud of. Something that makes you feel like an awesome person. Do you like animals? Go volunteer at an animal shelter. Work with the homeless. Create a cool piece of artwork or sing in the shower. Do a cross country bike ride or join a swim team. Do something that makes you forget about the way look, only if it's temporary. Be kind to other people. Doing something good will keep you from focusing on your looks, if only for a moment. When you feel at your best, you will feel beautiful, and it'll show.
I don't remember any of those moments. I had a terrible childhood and I was always alone and I was never able to have very much fun. I don't think there is anything that I'm good at that could make me feel better about myself.
IIN that i have a poor body image?

Sounds like you are projecting about yourself here...
