Feeling happy and sad how people treat you differently when you lose weight

I’m down about 25 lbs, and at my heaviest I was about 285. Before zep I gained 100 pounds in less than 3 years due to my endometriosis disabling me. I had my first endometriosis surgery in December and started zep in March.

I’m losing pounds and inches and feeling better in my skin and more confident. Today I went to UPS to return some packages . A man rushed to open the door for me. The UPS worker greeted me with a smile and friendly conversation. I went to a coffee shop after and two baristas told me they hoped I had a great day.

At my highest weight, I was totally invisible in public. People didn’t make casual pleasantries in public, or hold open doors for me. Sometimes severs at restaurants would be so awful to me while being nice to the rest of my friend group. Uber/taxi drivers wouldn’t make conversation either, but as I lose weight I feel they too become more chatty.

Every time I lose weight and when people in public start just acknowledging more as a human being, I feel happy.. and then so sad at the same time 😔I’ve grown accustomed to being “invisible” and then it’s like whiplash when I’m in a smaller body and society is automatically kinder to me and treats me differently. Anyone else?
