So I have been on this journey for 10 months now and everything has changed but I've noticed a lot more changes socially these past couple of weeks. My question is kind of geared towards those that have been overweight all their life. I have been overweight since elementary school, around 3rd grade. At the beginning of this journey I read about how people will treat you differently and I just didn't believe it but now I definitely do. My question is for those of you who have been overweight all your life and are now at a healthy weight how long did it take you to become comfortable with the attention? I get constant compliments, more messages and friend requests on Facebook than ever in my life. It is overwhelming for me at times because my self-image is still stuck at my starting weight. How do you guys deal with it? Thank you!
