I don't think you are crazy. I haven't experienced this phenomenon you speak of though ... I think I must have a big "MOM" plastered on me, because while I'm often seen as an approachable friend, I can count on one hand the number of men who have EVER looked at me twice or paid "attention" to me.
Just know that you are still you, but now you are even better ... Not because you are smaller, but because you are happier with yourself and taking care of yourself. I think that being happier makes us more approachable. I also think that to a certain extent guys are "dogs", they are more "visual."
Enjoy!
