Hi Erin - you have a good mindset and a good start!
There is an at-home, no equipment workout here - go to the top of the screen and click on "Exercise Program" and follow the prompts, answer the questions, and it will generate a plan for resistance training without weights - resistance training will speed up your results by stimulating your muscles, boosting your metabolism and shaping your body:)
Don't drop your calories any lower, you may get a backlash effect if you go too low. 1,500 is the lowest you should probably go, and if your resulst slow down you might even add in a few calories.
What you eat is just as, if not more, important as how much. be sure you get plenty of fibwer from vegetables and whole grains. Eat plenty of lean protein, and drink plenty of water and no-cal beverages.
Keep it up - your goals are very doable!
-------------- Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.
