things that worked for me: forcing myself to act confident, wearing whatever I wanted but felt to unconfident to wear even if it's just alone or to a trusted friends house, buying clothes I really really liked, lifting weights to build muscle (and an ass), makeup.

these are all mostly external things but I've found that external things have really helped me be confident in my body. other than that, being confident in your abilities and hobbies can help. like I may not like the way I look sometimes BUT I am a good artist and I can lift some pretty heavy weights.
