    Cardio and probably maintenance to moderately heavy weights. Cut calories and watch your macros. Lots of water! Maybe only eat back like 50% of your exercised cals back but invest in a HRM to insure you're not over estimating cals burned, this is detrimental to weight loss as most calorie calculators (including MFP) way over estimate calories burned for the average person. :) Good luck and thank you for your brave and selfless career choice!
