Losing weight is simply about being in caloric deficit. You should eat about 500 calories below maintenance and adjust as you go. You first have to figure out maintenance: the amount of calories you can consume per day without losing or gaining any weight. Use trackers like MyFitnessPal to calorie track all of your food. Also try to keep your carbs, proteins, and fats in a good ratio to ensure your nutrition isn't total crap either. Try to schedule in cheat meals once a week but calculate it so that you still stayed in a deficit of about 3500 calories for the week. You'll lose about a pound a week under that system. Also, drink nothing but black coffee and water. When buying food from the super market, always look at the ingredients. For example, when buying whole wheat bread, make sure that "whole wheat" is in fact the first ingredient. A lot foods claim to be composed of one thing but have another thing entirely.
Do high intensity interval training for cardio, if you're limited with time. If you have some time, mix in some longer slower intensity cardio. We're all gonna make it. Good luck brah.
