I feel like everyone is now staring at me....

I am a month postop from Open RNY. I'm down about 25 pounds or so. I've gotten compliments which are nice to hear. The problem is now I am feeling self conscious. It seems like everyone is staring at me. One friend was all excited for me and said, "You are the talk of the town!". Attention has always made me feel uncomfortable. I am wondering how I will handle it when the weight loss becomes more drastic. It feels so strange. Anyone else feel like this?
