Unhappy To a Confusing Point in My LC Journey

I have reached a point in my weight loss where I'm kind of confussed. I've "officially" (On my scale... my inlaw's says 34 ....) lost 32 lbs, 14.9% body fat and a lot of inches.
I was never heavy (by health standards, but in other people's eyes I was "huge" )until a few years ago when I ballooned up 80 lbs in 1 year and maintained that until I started LCing. I was always around 135 lbs, and at my smallest was 140-145 (muscle gain from constant weight lifting )
Now that I've broken through the 190's, I'm noticing that I'm feeling more and more uncomfortable and, well, weird. It feels so forgien that I can see my ribs, feel/see my bones in general. Sometimes I think that I've lost more than I should and need to stop, but other times I see that I've still got a ways to go. My body is continuing to lose steadily (5lbs in the past week, although 3 of those lbs I've been gaining and re-losing since March ) and I'm not anywhere near emaciated, so I know I'm not risking my health.
I guess my question is, is this normal and will it go away? My SO's terrified that I'm falling back into my old weight obsessed ways (bulimic since I was 11/12 years old, "clean" for a few months...) and he's even starting to scare me....
Anyone else gotten to/gotten through this point? And how did you deal with it?
