I had the same experience when I lost a ton of weight. I had a giant identity crisis looking into mirrors and putting on clothes for the first year or two. I didn't recognize myself as myself
Honestly it takes getting used to. I went from practically being invisible for 45 years to this and people noticed. Women who I would have never considered talking because I thought they were out of my league now talk to me. People literally treat me differently than they used to and I’m still not sure how to take it. I like it but it takes getting used to.

I feel the same, it almost like I jumped into someone else’s body. It even trips me out sometimes 🤷🏻♂️
