Please offer some ways to get over obsessive body-image!?

Body image: Obtain reality feedback and compare this to distorted self-perceptions. Remember that beauty is skin-deep. Consider cognitive behavioral therapy if this has become problematic in your life.

I have an MRI on Monday, for full spine, but my body has been twitching a lot and its all over the place. will this affect the ability to get a clear image? Is there anything I can expect that they may do to get a clear image?
So I go through periods where I want and try, to lose weight. Eventually I get to a point of noticable gains, feel really good about my progress, but then I feel guilty because I blame myself for letting global body image standards impact my view of myself. I'm right around 250-255lbs, and I'd love to get down to the 200 I was in college. But I don't want to admit that my body is somehow lacking if I don't get down to that weight. So I don't know how to handle it. Weight and mental health?
