Welcome to the boards! I don't really have much advice at the time because I've been stuck myself as far as weight loss goes, but I've cut out all the little things that add up such as sugar, ketchups, juices, salt, fatty salad dressings, butters, margarines, mayo...I've taken all those things out of my diet. I could never last on a low carb diet, I love my carbs way too much and if I don't eat them I always feel hungry. I do stick to flax whole grains and whole wheat carbs though. I have also heard that it's best to have your carbs early in the day if you want them, because you can use the rest of the day to burn them off.
I've replaced most of my drinks with water and I also have caffeine free diet coke. I'm at the gym 3 days a week and on the off days I go out running.
Hopefully you can find something that works for you, welcome again
