Any tips for someone who has been overweight their whole life?

Hey all. I'm 5'2, female, and roughly 200-205lbs (90kg). I crossed over into the obese category over the past 5 years, but I was on the high end of overweight since I was a young child. I grew up without any sort of regulation on what I was eating, as well as mostly processed foods in the house since we werent exactly well off. Most of my immediate family is also obese.

I've struggled with a binge-restrict cycle for a few years, and I finally want to do it right this time. I need to lose weight, because I've been gaining at least 10 pounds every year.

I eat about 2300 calories a day (I tracked days where I just ate whatever I wanted to get a good baseline of where Im at). Im currently trying to limit it down to 1700 (with a goal of slowly going a bit lower once I'm comfortable with 1700).

Any tips beyond just the obvious eating in a deficit and movement?
