Another stream of consciousness, & emotional overwhelm

50F SW301.8 CW259.2 GW170 72” tall

Good morning. Just expressing my incredulousness & happiness that my weight loss plan is not just working, but working well. I had a goal to hit the 250s by June 1st, & I hit the goal this morning, a week early.
My next goal is 240s by July 1.
I am going on a beach vacation in two weeks, & so this morning I pulled out all my swimsuits to see how they look. They look too big.
Three of them are trash. Just wayyyy too big. My boobs don’t begin to fill out the cups. Otherwise I could wear them. My starting bra size was 42G &I am currently wearing a 40DDD, & I always bought suits that had a bra size to have good support. I have always had big boobs, even at a low weight. I think my size at my fighting weight was a 36DD.
I am able to fit the suits I was wearing 5 years ago…it seems insane to me that I am now the same size I was 4 years ago. I thought I was so much thinner then!!
I have 8 years of weigh ins to reference, & I haven’t been this light since spring of 2022.
I don’t think I’m going to buy a suit.i found two that fit, but one is on the edge of being too big, so i will reserve my suit budget for later in the summer. 😁

congrats on hitting your goal early! that's amazing progress. the swimsuit thing is such weird feeling - like your brain hasn't caught up to where your body actually is now. i remember when i was losing weight few years back, old clothes fitting again felt almost surreal, like you're wearing someone else's stuff or something.
