Is Anyone Else Afraid?

So, I guess I should clarify, but recently I've had a growing fear when it comes to my weight loss. I do not like how I look now. And I absolutely shouldn't. I'm overweight, my cheeks are chubby, and I don't gracefully fit into any clothes. But at the same time, I don't even know if things will turn out how I want it to when I do drop all my weight.

Why this scares me is because when I did put on all of my unwanted weight, was during a second growth spurt just after high school. I had gone from very skinny to "thickening out". My bones grew bigger, shoulders wider. Though with that came the fat as I was not careful, nor was I paying attention. And because of this, I don't have any reference to "how I should look".

Because I don't have a proper reference to compare myself to, it feels like I'm walking straight into the dark with my adventure in weight loss. With lifting, I do feel like I've made progress. Replacing some fat with muscle. My handles are starting to shrink and I've developed some definition on the sides of my face, but i'm scared that in the end I'm still going to be ugly. Does anyone else feel this way? Because I want to keep to my motivation but I'm seriously feeling alone about this lately.
