Focus on calories first and foremost...a deficit is how you lose weight. If you decide to go low carb, that's up to you, but it won't necessarily help if you aren't counting.

Yep. Easy does it! Start by just getting in the habit of weighing, measuring, and logging your food and activity. That's quite a lifestyle change just by itself.

Besides, you need some data first before you can analyze it and make good choices about where to make changes. Once logging starts feeling easier, then start focusing on the changes you'd like to make in your eating and activity patterns.
