Brain stuck in the 300s, body dropping through the 200s like melted butter

I am actually having the same problem. Today I went to attempt to find a new swimsuit and actually went over to the side of the store (the plus sized side) that I used to shop in... then the clerk came over and asked if she could help me, telling me I probably wanted the other side of the store to find what I was looking for. It took me a few moments to get what she was getting at... realizing that I am now a size 6, not a size 26 like I was.
I actually discussed it with my surgeon yesterday and he said that it is fairly common since we are losing so quickly.
Congrats on finding your knees! I remember that joy. I also remember finding my collar bones... for most of my life, I thought I was born without them!

I found my collar bone 2 weeks ago and have been pointing it out to people who look at me like I have lost all my marbles. They don't get it, but I know y'all do, which is why I have to bottle it up and share it on here.
I don't know if I will ever be a size 6, but then again I never thought I'd be under 250 without being very sick.
Congrats on your loss!! I was a 28 and now I'm an 18, and even some of those are getting baggy bottom syndrome! Wish I could just smush some fat to my backside.

I know the feeling about wanting to move some fat to your backside.... my hubby keeps calling me boney butt (but I know he is just joking). I'd actually like to also relocate some to my boobs too... right now, they look like deflated party balloons... :-(
I never thought I'd get to a size 6 either... but I did. I actually have not been this weight since I was in the 4th grade.
You are doing great!
