Phantom gut syndrome

Like phantom limb syndrome where people can still feel an arm or leg that is removed. I got a little bloated and I was putting my hand on my stomach and it actually startled me for a second; where I felt my stomach distending to there was actually nothing but air because it doesn't stick out anymore. Anyone else ever had that?

I know when i first lost weight I kept overestimating the amount of space I'd need to move, for example, between tables/chairs.. or the size of jeans I'd fit into - I'd pick up stuff and think "this is gonna be way too small" and then it would fit or even be loose on me6

It sucks. I can't wrap my brain around it.

Sometimes I get so bloated I feel like I have a baby in there..I stick it out and rub it for fun. Also sometimes I feel it move. So weird. Not the same thing but odd nonetheless!2

The feeling was a legit thing for me; I can still feel bloated like it is sticking way out there. It's not totally flat yet, but it isn't sticking out like it feels; not even close.0 -

Hmm. Maybe it will take time for your brain to catch up with your new body?1
