Advice on my motivation goals?

Hi everyone!

Woman in my late 20's starting my journey again after some success in the past. While I was able to truly kick binge eating during my weight loss in the past, I had a really suicidal past 2 years where I slowly gained steadily to where I maintain my current weight.

So my current life maintains a weight around 180-185, which is right around the border of when overweight becomes Obese and I want to change that.

But given my mental health issues before, where I stop caring because I don't feel like living any more, I'm thinking of including a lot of positive goals to help me on my journey, which is why I'm here to ask for advice. (I'm definitely in long term medical care for mental stuff and will keep it going, dw!)

So here it goes:

I'm starting at 183.5 lbs and while I've had success in the past with diet + exercise, I never quite made it to a healthy weighted. For my height, healthy weight would be <145lbs.

Because of this, I'm thinking of setting 5lbs and 10lbs goals to keep me moving but also hold me accountable all the way down to healthy weight.

173.5 -- buy digital piano (also gives me time to save up for my dream one)

163.5 -- domestic trip ($1k budget) also open up to dating again/make hinge account

153.5 -- book my dream tattoo artist

143.5 -- book my dream vacation (~$5k budget)

Every 5lbs, I plan to splurge on a new piece of clothing or splurge on something I want in the $100-200 range. That way my rewards stop being so food driven and I can have a healthier relationship with my body -- not looking for the 'later' body, but at myself right now.

How does this look? would you make any changes?
