Here is my two cents on how to start. For one week, write down everything that goes into your mouth. There are all types of free apps on the net to log your food and come up with your calorie intake.
With that information, find a food plan that you can stick to long term. I count calories, I have a co-worker who has had success on WW online. There are all types of diet plans on this forum you can check out.
Make small changes first, adding in more water and less pop. Make a point to move more, etc.
However, my most important piece of advice is DO NOT GIVE UP. If you have a bad day, a bad week, do not let it be a reason to give up. Shake it off and get back on track.
Best of luck to you!
