Two Factor Authentication

I signed out of my apple account and when I tried to get back in it said I need to have the code. But I don't have that phone number anymore. I don't even remember. Please can anyone help me!

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 13

The code isn’t sent, by default, to your cell number anyway. It is sent by encrypted iCloud push notification to all your trusted devices simultaneously. Do you have another device using that same AppleID you could receive the code on? Did you setup a second, backup voice or SMS number to get the code by text or automatic voice call?
