Hi Laura,
Welcome!
The journey is long, and is filled with some pitfalls, but also some amazing things along the way. Summer starts June 21; that's 20 weeks. Losing 65 pounds in 20 weeks is probably way too fast. It is a recipe for a backfire. I'm not sure how much you have to lose, but consider this:
What is a good rate of loss for me?
The best approach is to develop habits you can continue indefinitely. Once you lose those 65 pounds, you'll need to keep up those habits to maintain the loss.
