Realizing how far I have to go

I've been obese my entire adult life and overweight all of it (SW: 322 lbs | CW: 283 lbs | 5'6" F).

My first goal is a BMI <40 and that means I need to lose another 39 lbs. If I can average losing 1.5 lbs/week that still means it's going to take 26 weeks. That would put me at 1 year from when I was 322 lbs.

I know I didn't put this all on in a month and even if I can keep up this rate, it's an accomplishment but it sounds exhausting. Another 7 months just to get to obese from morbidly obese...

I get that it's a marathon and not a sprint but this sounds exhausting and insurmountable.
