I understand. In that case, it's pretty much a cakewalk. I was 255lbs 2 years ago, and although I regret it (because I did want to bodybuild -not to compete, but I did want to get big and cut), I ate a diet similar to yours and easily dropped the weight. The formula is pretty simple:

Healthy food choices
Eat several times/day
Stay in a caloric deficit
do cardio
lift some weights

DO NOT make the mistake I did though - I was in a severe caloric deficit (eating around 1200 calories/day with a TDEE of 2500 - VERY BAD) and torched a ton of LBM as well as slowed my metabolism to a crawl. Sure I lost most of the fat, but now I have a fvcked metabolism that makes it difficult for me to get rid of those last few lbs of fat, as well as makes it tough to add muscle without also adding bodyfat. TAKE MY ADVICE ON THIS ONE! Count calories, make sure you're eating enough. Just a couple hundred under TDEE, and do alot of cardio.
