Hello,
I'm afraid you'll have to restore from back up and re-enter anything since then.
If you find, in future, that a file is growing significantly larger (even though you may have entered only a few changes) then a potential recovery is to
1. Save the file as a Project database (.mpd)
2. Exit Project
3. Start Project
4. Open the .mpd file
5. Save the file as a Project file (.mpp)
6. Exit Project
If that doesn’t help you I would advise Microsoft Project service for online repair. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that is the only method I have found and can suggest. I hope it helps to you. https://onlinefilerepair.com/en/project-repair-online.html
I don’t know, but maybe this post will help somehow?
