Squatting help / question ( obese man )

Squatting help / question ( obese man )

Diet is already in order - Already have a beginner program -Now that that is out of the way my question is:Was recommended to do bodyweight squats because of my weight to begin with. While doing them, I cannot go all the way down, or even close to it. I would call what I can do close to a 90 degree? maybe 80-85? between my calfs and thighs. As i start to get lower i become severely out of balance / i feel a strain like if i go any lower im just going to fall down. Because of this I've been doing the " squat onto a box / chair" method. My legs are definitely working doing this though.What I'm worried about is if i keep doing it this way will I eventually be able to do normal squats? ( without a box or chair) or should i seek help? or does anyone have any advice or thoughts? I have a sedentary lifestyle and would really like to get some strength back into my legs.
