This is one of the oldest tricks in the book, I guess, but I'll add my story on the chance that someone may get some encouragement from it.
At 180 (5.1") I started buying one jean size smaller than I could fit into. I'd put them on, see how many inches in the waist I'd have to lose to fit into them, then set them aside. I visualized myself wearing these jeans morning, noon and night. At night, I especially concentrated on that vision before going to sleep. It made me happy! It was as if I had already accomplished this goal because I was seeing it inside my head.
I'd try the too-small pair of jeans on from time to time, seeing them becoming looser, until they fit perfectly. What a high!!!
Wishing you the very best, no matter HOW you accomplish your goal.
