Decreasing my weight loss goal

I started my weight loss journey in the beginning of the year, but I was never consistent with my workouts or healthy eating habits, so I was just maintaining the same weight. For the past four years, I saw myself as fat, when looking back on it I was actually a healthy size. It wasn't until 2020 that I really put on the pounds (+15) and I actually saw and felt the weight gain.

For reference, I started at 5'2, 170 lbs. Ever since I started my journey, I've been so obsessed with getting to 130 pounds, because that's what I was at 4 years ago. However, about 2 weeks ago I changed my goal to 150. I figured even at that weight I'd still have a good bmi and I can take small steps down the scale until I'm satisfied. I've lost 6 pounds in 2 weeks and I think it has to do with me not obsessing over a number that seems so far away. Now, I'm even more motivated to keep going because I'm actually seeing some progress. My eating habits have improved also, so it could be all those factoring in as well. I wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this or maybe the opposite?
