I'm not sure that would be a self-confidence issue, or just a female one. In general as women we can be so much arder on ourselves and our appearences then men are. And keep in mind, I think many of us still have, and may always have "fat eyes". I still often times see myself as the same ole fat chick. I'm constantly jiggling my pannus and calling it my big fat stomach. I'm not sure that ever goes away!
You're doing fabulous Lisa, even if you live in the land of self-doubt. Please try and remember to hydrate and eat. That can be a method of self-sabatoge all on it's own. Also, when your body can't count on you to feed it what it needs on a regular basis, you are more inclined to make poor food choices, and maybe eat too quickly or something that won't agree with your pouch because you are so hungry you aren't thinking clearly. Happens to me often! Myself, I kind of like the winter, but this is So Cali, so it's not really "winter"  But I always take these months when I can't do much outside to clean out closets, organize things, redecorate etc. Stay busy dollface... idle hands and all that...
