How do I do this the right way?

I have been overweight my whole life. I don't know what it's like to be anything but a big girl. I have had nothing but bad influences when it comes to eating habits. All of my family are overweight/obese and yet they have brutally criticized me from a young age. My grandmother called me when I was eight to tell me she would give me an allowance if I started losing weight. Fast forward to now, I am a young woman who just wants to feel healthy. However I have a history of eating disorders, self harm, migraines, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. I have been mentally healthy (I don't like using the word stable) for over a year now, and I want to change my body for the better. I have been tracking calories, and being honest and gentle with myself. But that's the easy part. The hard part is when other people start to notice changes and make comments. My biggest anxieties are centered around other people's obsession with my weight, so how do I tune those voices out? What are some things that help you remain positive about trying to dramatically change yourself? Any words of wisom of how to remain kind and patient with oneself?
