BUY CLOTHES THAT FIT. If you’re losing weight, you don’t need a bunch of them. Shop clearance or thrift stores, but get 4 solid pieces that fit. Do you hair every day. Wear makeup every day. Take care of your skin. Wear earrings. Track inches and not pounds.Be kind to yourself. Drink you water and take some walks. 25 pounds feels like a huge difference to you, but it’s not that bad, and you can lose it in 5 months.

How to feel or how to look attractive?

For feeling and self care: make sure you have a skincare routine, that you workout regularly, wear some flattering makeup, and avoid excess photos/selfies in the meantime (this is only if you are someone who feels mortified by pics of themselves at a heavier weight) as this will only make you feel worse.

Looking more attractive in the meantime: make sure you clothes fit even as you lose weight (belts and thrift stores are your friend), maintain a hairstyle that suits your face, and tone your body during workouts (weights) so that as you lose, you minimize flabbiness and lose skin.

I’m in the same boat. Had 2 kids and I’ve got 30 lbs to lose. Im wearing dresses that are flattering. I may be chunky but I have an hourglass figure so dresses that accentuate my figure and cover my problem areas make me feel confident and must look good because I get lots of compliments. My hair nails makeup skincare are all on point. Also I’m doing teeth whitening now and when I shop I’m looking for cute shoes jewelry and handbags. It’s so so motivating to look in the mirror and see things I like even if the extra weight is still a bummer

Confidence and attractiveness I cannot say they are not related - even though in theory you should able to just be yourself and do whatever you want despite others and your own opinions on yourself.

For me it helped to realise that I have different parts each with their own agenda. Maybe have a look at the enneagram - it helps in understanding that you are a different you when being stressed. The solution then would be to make sure don’t feel the need to eat your emotions. (It’s a well established fact that fatty foods are what we crave when stressed and sugary foods also help us feel good)

You didn’t state the reason on why you gained the pounds. But if possible try to make sure that the reason is gone.

TLDR: Addressing the root cause vs just treating the symptoms would give me peace of mind anyway.
