How to lose weight as a 240 lb 5'4 sedentary woman?

Any advice? There are so many diets out there and I just don't know which one would work for me. I enjoy eating, but would like to get the weight off.

You need to add some workout to bring your basic energy consumption to a higher level. And whatever you do, a real "diet" is no solution, its only gives a yoyo effect. Better is to get a healthy lifestyle. It lasts longer. Anyway, you will have to cut carbs and add vegetables and fruit. And also proteins. You want to burn fat, not muscle.

I don't recommend just picking a diet, I recommend, at your weight, to get the advice of an actual professional like a doctor or dietitian to help you come up with a meal plan. You'll need to change your entire lifestyle and your relationship with food permanently to get real results that last.

Monitor how much you're eating right now (for like a week). Then average take an average for a single day. Transition by first meeting that caloric intake, but with healthy whole foods (Only drink water). Then slowly start limiting how much you eat each week, but make sure to give yourself a day to have some bad foods, but not too many.
