I'm trying to lose weight myself, had gotten down to like 185, before shyt happened and I jumped back up to 260-270.
Currently 224 and shooting for 215 by end of the year.
Best advice I can give is keep all your meals simple: protein, green, and a carb like potatoes or rice. Also try to use as few ingredients as possible for shyt, more you add, more calories come into play.
Exercise wise, do 15-20 minutes of cardio 4-5 days a week, you don't have to go all out or go for crazy times, just make the 10-20 minutes count.
I don't know if you lift or into weightlifting like that, but 2-3 days of lifting can go a long way to helping turn some of the fat into muscle and just giving a better overall look.
I can give you an example of what I do for my workout if you want
