I can't say I relate completely, but I do to some extent. 60-100lbs makes an enormous difference for me, even as a tall dude.
That said, even bottoming out at 6'2" 155lbs, there were still noticeable pockets of fat in the "bad areas" (chest, belly). This was probably due to low muscle mass, but it can be pretty crushing.
All that work and you don't look any better without a shirt on... but cloths fit better and I definitely looked better. That weight makes around a 5-20 year difference in appearance for me.
You could argue this should be a part of the fitness conversation. You probably won't achieve perfection and people with long term weight issues may never really get the desired results. This is definitely an area where body positivity is important.
