Is it bad my main motivation to lose weight and get fit is to prove everyone in my life wrong?

I feel like the title is pretty self explanatory. My whole life, I’ve been made fun of by my classmates, my “friends”, even my own family members. My own father would “tease” me and tell me things whenever he sees an obese woman, “You see that woman? That’ll be you when you’re 40”. I don’t even think he understands how much that shit hurts. Nevertheless, I began my weight loss journey in silence. I never told my parents I was going to diet. I only ever told my new, much better friends, now that I had a goal to achieve, and they supported me. I haven’t achieved my goal quite yet, but I’m halfway through. I used to be around 140lbs (the highest I’ve ever been), at the height of 5’2”-5’1”. I’m currently 124lbs-125lbs, and hope to reach 115. Now going back to my main point, my main motivation this entire time is to prove all of them wrong. To get the last laugh. I know it’s bad that’s my motivator but, that is what got me this far. I also have other motivators, like to get strong, to be able to run long distances because it makes me feel amazing. But do I need to change my mindset?
