Ever changed a tire? Tires are HEAVY. An automobile tire weighs 20 pounds! You've lost that! All that weight you were carrying around....gone!
Good.
Work.

You are definetely right I just need to lose a lot and it was a slow process but still counts

Yes it still counts! You're 22 pounds closer to goal!
Set small goals to break up your bigger one. If you go by scale weight, set your first goal (for example) to lose 10% of your body weight. Them maybe 10 pound goals.
I had 70 to lose and did the above. I'm now down to 17 left to lose and I re-set to 5 pound goal increments because the rate of loss has slowed. I also have some exercise type goals I like to hit too.
This worked for me but everyone is different. Try not to think of your overall target but the next (smaller) one. Some days I just made a goal of making it through the day to hit my calorie target. Baby steps baby!
