How the hell do you wean a baby off formula and bottles?!

I felt the need to post this to this amazing subreddit because I just want someone to tell me I have plenty of time. My baby is a huge boy and at one point was consuming 60 oz of formula per day (didn't know that was an issue because they always tell you to feed them when they're hungry...). Hes down to 25 oz, but he turned 1 a couple days ago. I'm feeling immense pressure to cut him completely off formula and the bottles, but I'm reading that 1 year olds are supposed to be getting 1000 calories. How the hell would i even ensure he gets 1000 from solids solely?! He eats well but is a baby. So he spits and throws food on the ground. Is my kid going to be a mutant because he's 1 and still drinking formula? Anyone have a realistic weaning schedule...

I GOT SLEEP

For the last two nights my 11 week old has only woken up ONCE to eat... which is perfectly fine because I need to get up to pee anyway. I remember first bringing him home and thinking I would never sleep for more than an hour again, and I’m so thankful that was not the case. Wootwoot! Hallelujah!
