My only experience with this is when I went from 425, to 235 during my junior/senior year of high school. I never felt skinny, every time I looked in the mirror I looked the same. The only way I knew I was getting smaller was that clothing sizes were smaller. Outside of my clothes being smaller sizes, I still felt fat.
