I used to be skinny, now I feel like a whale!

I have always felt uncomfortable about my body. I used to be skinny, and now that I'm married I feel like a whale. And my sisters and parents make these comments. I remember hearing how ppl who were over weight said that it hurts to hear ppl say I look big or what not. I'm 5'1 I weight 146. It's just been a rollercoaster all my life and I hate that I've gotten this bad. I feel like one if my sister looks like at me like if I'm disgusting. And on top of that I see my husband looking at women in front of me. I've found dirty pictures of girls. Skinny ones. I know I need to wk out and eat better. I just dnt have any motivation to fix it. I feel like I can't even be intimate with him. I'm ashamed of what I look like. I need inspirational words. I know ppl say it's what's on the inside but really no one looks there the first time they see you. Sometimes I wish I had a lot if money to get lipo. I wouldn't have a low self esteem about myself.
