Is this body dysmorphia?

I have lost 36 lbs in the last 6 mos. I should feel proud of this accomplishment, however I am not.

I still feel large.. When I look in the mirror at first I am happy. Then I continue to look and I swear its like I can see my body expanding...

When l get ready to go out and put on a cute outfit. I feel sexy and stylish when I walk out of the door. However when I am in public my confidence dies. Someone will happen to take a picture and when I look at it I swear I see Shamu looking back at me.

Am I delusional. I genuinely don't know what I look like.... I feel like I need to keep losing more and more.

Does anyone else deal with this after weight loss ??

Some details about me :

I am 33f , I am 5'5 and my current weight is 164 lbs. I am black ( I say this because my body composition. I carry my weight in my bottom and thighs and hips ) I am very curvy .

My hip bones stick out- this makes me feel skinny.

I wear a size 8 US - this makes me feel average.

My BMI is still in obese catagory - this makes me feel ..well obese.

I should also add I had my 2nd baby 6 months ago .
