First checkpoint arrived at 254, and I’m recalibrating gently

I began this process at 338 pounds and set a first checkpoint at 255, not a final destination. This morning my seven-day average came in at 254.6, so I have crossed it. It took about 42 weeks. The habits that carried me were unglamorous: a protein-heavy breakfast, a short walk after lunch, and a standing Sunday review of my calendar and meals. I expected to feel triumphant, but mostly I feel quiet and a little unmoored. The next checkpoint is 225, but I am trying to stay with this one for a moment. For anyone who has reached an early milestone, what helped you honor it without immediately turning it into the next task?
