My ideas? Try to do 200 minutes of cardio a week. Remember fat does not turn into muscle, so you need to lose your fat while putting on muscle. Work hard, but don't over 60 minutes at a time. Do planks and other abs exercises on alternate days.
On training days, do 5-10 minutes of cardio to warm up, then do your weight training. Do 30 to 60 minutes more of cardio, then go home.
The best time to eat is just after your workout within an hour when your metabolism is raging. For your muscles, incorporate some isolated soy protein or whey protein. Whey is more potent but the soy tastes better!
Don't look at your scale as the be all and end all, but get a measuring tape to check your progress, and that will show more tangible results.
Read magazines like Shape, Womens Fitness, Fitness, etc to get tips and to stay motivated.
Good luck and stick at it. This plan has lost me 20 lbs in 12 weeks so far, just go for it!

Squats, squats and oh ya squats. This is the ultimate exercise, nothing replaces it and nothing matches its intensity. For everything not lower body related just make sure it balances out. Too much chest and not enough back will cause back pain and foward sloping shoulders. Also, your tricept is approx. 70% of your arm so it deserves 70% of your attention when working arms. For complete programs consult a certified trainer or pick something off a trusted website like Mens Health.com
