Feeling self conscious after loosing weight

[Kay100]

I think it's been less than a year since I lost a lot of weight and became slim. I wasn't intentionally trying to loose weight because I wasn't extremely overweight. I saw lots of health channels on YouTube talking about intermittent fasting so I started to skip breakfast often. Mostly was just for convenience cause lots of time not so hungry in the morning so was good didn't  have to worry about eating in the morning. And surprisingly I became slim after some time...

I think I definitely look better now. But that didn't make me more confident but on the contrary I became more self conscious when out in public. Somehow I feel like I look better now and more likely to get attention from people? I think that's the reason I feel more self conscious when out in public now. In the post I was too average so there's no reason if I draw might any extra attention at all. But now it's different. 

I think it's something to do with my personality as well. I'm not the outgoing type that like to standout. So now there's possibility that I might draw extra attention when out make me feel uneasy.

I contact a psychic lady and she said it's because I lost the weight so it's like I lost the protection I used to have on my body. She did a distant clearing for me. I did help a lot, I felt a lot more relaxed when out. But recently I felt like I'm feeling nervous when out again. It's not as bad as before but still quite nervous. 

Anyone had similar experience like this? After become slim instead of feeling more confident but the opposite happens. I didn't expect that!

Seems more like you have some kind of social anxiety/agoraphobia?

Yes but it all started after loosing weight. I was not like that before. Become slim make me more self conscious now.

How bad is this self-consciousness?

I guess it's not extremely bad, maybe medium level. 

I think I have heard about extreme overweight people that lost lots of weight after bypass surgery. But inside themselves they still have the image of their old overweight self. That's all I can remember. I don't remember any information about how can help them change their old self image.

I'm guessing I might be having this same problem. Maybe it's hard for myself to accept this new body image. I'm used to being mediocre and I find it hard to own up to this new slim image. 

What are the possible ways to change the old self image?
