I need to lose nearly half my body weight

Hello! I’m 26F 6’1” and started working on my weight loss last week, starting at 317lbs. In order to be at a healthy weight for my age and height, I need to weigh 170lbs, which is nearly half my current weight. In the last week, I’ve lose 1.4 lbs being 315.6lbs right now. I’ve tried losing weight in the past and always bailed out due to work stress causing me to be lazy and eat out instead of cooking at home and me believing that one “slip up” invalidated my whole attempt.

After getting my mental relationship with food and where I’m at currently and also having a new, less stressful job, I’m trying again and determined to make it stick. The problem is, the realization that I have to lose nearly half my body weight to be at my goal weight is QUITE daunting. I’m trying to think short term and just go day by day, good food choice by good food choice, but I still can’t help think what an uphill battle this will be.

Does anyone have advice for maintaining a long term weight loss journey? I’m estimating this to take anywhere 1.5-2 years. I appreciate any advice/tips!!
