Bad to worse, worse to bad, bad to a different variation of bad? I'm not sure yet...
Room to improve here (and I am being brutally honest right now, don't mean to insult you)
a) Haircut. This just looks like you just returned from some medieval fair where you were are squire or sth, it is just a mess, the top part is ok but somehow the neck is way too long from that pic.
b) stop looking like a kicked puppy - I look like shit on pictures too (irl too according to some meanies (NICJASNO I MEAN YOU)) but I don't look like I am about to cry
c) beard: This looks strange. Either grow a real beard (at least something visible) or shave, but don't keep these stubbles. I tried growing a beard, it annoyed me, so I shaved. I keep 3-day beards if I am really lazy over the weekend but don't go out with the stubbles, it just looks...wrong
d) Jacket is fine!
Most important: if you have problems with your self confidence, try to improve in the way you dress & your shape until _you_ feel comfortable, not until someone else tells you you are good looking.
I was a really fat guy (and still am according to some bullies, but less ) and I noticed that at least trying to improve the areas that you don't like about yourself gives you a huge boost in self confidence. For me, it was finally being able to wear nicer clothes, before that I always wore loose stuff to try to hide my fatness and felt ashamed of it, now I can dress nicer and only show off my chubbiness and joke about it, because I feel fine. Sure, I could (and want to) still lose some 5 kgs and build up more muscle, but I am on my way. And getting compliments by people you haven't seen for some time is quite a nice feeling.
To give you an idea (and feel honoured, because I normally don't post pics from that time & not many exist):
This is what I looked like in 2007 (being all pro (and shit) at poker):

And this is what I look like now - still got a belly, still making a stupid face on pictures but I feel way better now.

And there is hope for all of us, even Adunaphel went from this
