As others have said, you need to be on a deficit diet i.e. a diet in which you consume fewer calories than you burn. I also would recomend 6 meals a day, try a medium sized meal where your traditional breakfast, lunch and dinner would occur and put three snacks midway between your meals and in the early evening. Shoot for a moderate carb vs. protien ratio 55% carb, 30% protien and 15% fat would be a good start, you can moderate it a little after a few months you'll know how your body responds. Approx 70-85 % of your weight loss goals can be achieved through your nutrition. You should, of course look into aerobic and resistance excercise even if it is only 30 minutes 3 days a week. Don't forget to cut sugar out of your diet and moderate starches which turn to glucose and are stored as fat. PM me if you have any specific questions, good luck.
