BMI slipped into normal range and my lifts kept going

I’m 5’9”, down about 62 lb over 16 months on a GLP-1, still lifting four days a week. Recomp matters more to me than the scale: protein around 160–180g, sleep 7.5h, two lower sessions, two upper. My BMI ticked from 25.1 to 24.8 this week. I thought I’d feel some big rush, but mostly I thought, “Okay, now what?” The mirror and my training log still say I have fat to lose and musce to protect. Hitting a public milestone and realizing it’s not the finish line I actually care about has been strange. Anyone else treating BMI as a checkbox while chasing waist and strength numbers instead?
