Struggling with changing my mindset from “desire to be skinny” to “desire to be healthy and strong”

A few months ago I learned I was obese and it prompted me to get serious about losing weight and health. I’ve since lost 20+ lbs, bringing me out of the obese category and solidly into the overweight category for my height. According to my InBody measurements I have a greater than average amount of skeletal muscle mass, but still have an excess amount of body fat to lose.

I’ve hit a point where I am struggling to transition my thought process and mental goals from weight loss to health. For ages I’ve thought about being skinnier and not put much thought into health. I’m finding that most of the weight loss material I’m looking at reinforces that, especially since I’m a woman.

Does anyone have any advice or experiences? I’m losing motivation.
