Your best bet is to simply eat less calories and move more.
The Carbs will be considered in your calories if you use one of the trackers that has been mentioned.

Totally restricting yourself can lead to failure despite your best intentions.
Get an app then program it to lose a moderate amount over a month.

Remember that losing 1lb a week isn't that hard and if you lose an lb per week every week over what period you want....you can totally do it without struggling.

good basic advice

if your weight stays the same now, look at what you eat, trim it down a little and you will lose weight , breakfast of 2 slices of toast goes down to 1, slightly smaller portions

then look at what exercise you do, up it a little a 30 min walk turns into a 45 min walk

this will mean you dont change your lifestyle drastically ( so won't give up ) its all about lifestyle change, the smaller the changes and most chance you have of keeping them

weigh once a week at the same time
