EDIT 1: TL;DR. Salad. Portion control. Aim for between 1500-2000 calories. EAT LOTS OF SALAD! Make it in advance, store it in the fridge. Exercise!
EDIT 2: Disclaimer: This worked for me. Your mileage may vary. I planned a diet around using salad to cope with hunger because it was a natural food very low in calories. I used very low calorie dressing to keep it that way. If you can't see yourself eating salad 2-4x a day, this won't work for you, but it's just one of many possible ways to cut calories with less pain than suffering through hunger between meals. Always go with a diet plan that appeals to you as something that you can stick to for a long period of time, not what some random stranger suggests on the internet. ;)
Well, I'm not a professional, but I have gone from fat to fit (female, from 210 and lazy to 130 and athletic in under six months) with similar issues as your own:
It's all well and good to say you're going to quit drinking soda, but do stock up on some diet soda. I know some people hate it, but give yourself some time with it. Your taste buds will adapt.
What's wrong with coffee? Have your morning coffee. There are no calories in coffee until you add cream and sugar. Go with milk and sweetener if that's your thing. More importantly, have breakfast with your coffee. It should be a small-ish meal - enough that you're getting your blood sugar up and keeping yourself satisfied. If breakfast alone won't tide you over until lunch, have a serving of fruit between breakfast and lunch. Small meals throughout the day will keep you more satisfied in the long run than three squares (because they help to keep your blood sugar elevated).
No sweets? Good. Next!
I'm not big on bread, but pasta? Mmmm. Unfortunately, portion control is damn hard with both bread and pasta. Sandwiches are okay, but think pita bread (look for varieties at about 100cal/pita) and lots of vegetables with some lean meats (chicken, turkey, lean ham, roast beef) and mustard & salt and pepper instead of butter or mayo. Calorie free mayonnaise exists, but I have no idea what it actually tastes like. Stuff that pita till it's ready to burst with lettuce, tomato and cucumber. Cucumber is damn good on a sammich. Don't you doubt it.
As for pasta, did you know that ~35 pieces of rotini is a portion of pasta? Disappointing as all get-out, huh? Click.. Get one. Stick to 1 portion. Stick to non-meat sauces and have a salad or steamed vegetables on the side/remaining three quarters of your plate. Heck, have some chicken, too. Key word: Some. Like 1/2 a breast.
I don't like vinaigrettes either. That's why fat free Italian is awesome. Calorie reduced everything else is also pretty good, but you've got to be quite moderate with it. READ YOUR LABELS and measure out your dressing accordingly.
Lots of vegetables, some fruit. Green vegetables contain very few calories, making them excellent for purposes of satisfying hunger without guilt. Keep in mind that most yellow, red, orange or white "veggies" have substantially more calories than greens (even though they're still pretty low). A few slices of carrot and some cherry tomatoes in your salad won't kill you, but if you make a salad containing only green things, you can pretty much eat as much of it as you want, whenever you want, provided you don't forget to think about the calories in the dressing.
A grilled chicken sandwich from a fast food joint probably isn't a big improvement vs. whatever else you had in mind, but it depends on the particular sandwich. If it's a major chain restaurant you're going to for it, look it up. 500 calories? Not... bad, but probably not very filling. 1000 calories? No. Just no. The problem isn't the chicken - it's the bun and the condiments. Subtracting the cheese (if present) and substituting a creamy sauce with barbeque sauce is one way to improve it, but only if you're looking at something that's around 500 calories to begin with. Here's an example. The best fast food restaurant meal is a side salad... or three. Again, mind the dressing. A packet of creamy dressing like Ranch can contain 300 calories.
A good rule of thumb is not to put anything in your mouth without first knowing what's in it. Always read Nutritional Information labels and when in doubt, use a calorie index site like the one linked above (there are many) before you plan a meal, whether in your home our outside of it. I have to wonder, why do you have to eat fast food? Workday lunch? Is there a reason you can't pack your own lunch? Planning your meals is key, as is portion control (particularly bread and pasta control). The best way I've personally found is to plan your meals a week in advance, but more importantly, try not to let yourself get hungry.
Easier said than done? Easier done than you think. You love salad? Perfect!
Step 1: Buy stuff to make a whole lot of salad, plus the lowest calorie dressing(s) you can reasonably tolerate putting on said salad. Also, buy or find a large (as in ~300oz) bowl or tupperware container and at least one small container (~32oz). A 3rd even smaller (12oz) container is optional (or you could go for two even smaller containers here). Airtight tupperware is best. Additionally, you will need either a lettuce spinner or plenty of paper towel.
Step 2: Clear half a shelf in your fridge. Wash, shred and DRY (spin, air dry or shake and thoroughly pat dry) enough lettuce to fill the big container. The drier the lettuce, the longer it'll last. Wash and slice enough mostly green whatever-else to fill the larger of the small containers and save the smallest, if you opt for it, for tomato and onion. The reason for keeping all of this separate is A) to keep the lettuce dry and B) to keep the tomato and onion flavours in the tomato and onion where they belong.
Step 3: When you want a salad, make a salad. It'll take you all of one minute to remove your containers from the fridge and combine their contents. Bring at least one serving of salad with you to work with the intention of eating it on your last break or just before you leave. That way, you won't be hungry when you get home. On the off chance that you are, you've got plenty of salad waiting for you if it's not yet time for supper.
Drink lots of water.
Get problem foods out of your home if you can.
Set a realistic calorie limit. Your BMR with the stats you've given is about 3000. This does not include calories burned during exercise, but to keep it simple (and effective), consider anything below 3000 a calorie deficit. Eating exactly 3000 calories a day is not likely to result in a satisfying rate or weight loss, so you'll want to go even lower. I would suggest setting a limit somewhere between 1500 and 2500. A pound of fat contains 3500 calories, so at 1500 calories a day, you'd be looking at at least 3lbs of weight loss per week (to start - keep in mind that as your size changes, so does your metabolic rate). At 2500 calories a day, you'd be looking at at least 1lb of weight loss per week.
You can approach achieving and maintaining a calorie deficit in two ways:
All at once: Limit yourself to somewhere between 1500 and 2000 calories from day 1 of your diet onward. If you can maintain it, you'll see quick results.
Ease into it: It is okay to start with a small reduction (for example, start with limiting yourself to 2750 calories), working your way down (by 250cal/week) over the course of a few weeks (again, to no fewer than 1500 calories). This is not the usual way to go about "starting a diet," but if your main problem is eating too much, it's not just the size of your body that you need to think about shrinking. Your stomach is in fact larger than it ought to be and it will take time for it to shrink down. As it does so, it will take less food to fill you up, but if you suddenly start eating half the food your stomach is used to, it's going to bitch and moan about it in the form of some pretty intense hunger pangs. It'll still shrink its whiny self down to a slimmer-you friendly size, but it's going to complain about it for a good two weeks.
How to start out is something that is entirely up to you. Succeeding at weight loss boils down to mental discipline, which tends to erode in the face of something as demanding as a hungry stomach. If it was easy to make drastic changes to your eating habits, no one would ever fail at a diet. It's not easy, but you can make it easier. Making smaller changes over a period of time may make it easier for you. Maybe, maybe not. You'll see smaller changes at first with this method, which may be discouraging. Again, it is completely up to you how you want to start: Tough it out or spread it out.
Plan your shopping and non-salad meals before you head out to do groceries. More to the point, plan for the diversity you want. There is no reason to eat the same thing every week, let alone every day. Does that sound silly when I'm advising you to eat lots of salad? There are many, many varieties of low calorie dressing. Use that to keep it interesting and vary your non-salad meals to keep them interesting.
If your wife is doing the groceries, well... either give her a list, go with or go yourself. And eat first. If it involves thinking about, reading about or looking at food, eat first.
Otherwise, it's all about basic portion control, which is a challenge in and of itself, but it gets easier. It really does.
Last but not least, EXERCISE. If the only exercise you can do is walking, walk. The best place to start however is with some strength training to give your body a little more calorie burning capacity (because muscle just does that, even when it's not doing anything else). For that, see the side bar. >
I can't live without this in my kitchen. I have such a hard time opening jars, but this makes it so easy! I don't fully understand WHY it works, but you just wrap it around the lid, and twist like you normal would, but the lid almost always pops right off. I use it all the time and love love love it!
Let's do it in the kitchen.
aw man, I'm hoping to start making/selling some bbq-specific boards later in the summer. you could've been my first customer! :)
i would highly recommend something with a drip channel. boos makes a board that runs the drip channel around the board and into a drip tray:

You should see if your local craft store has Wilton Cake Decorating classes. I took a few classes at Michael's Crafts while back and they were a lot of fun. The courses cost about $25 and the kit is about the same. The classes are taught by Wilton certified instructors and meet once a week. You bring in a prepared and frosted cake, some prepared frosting and decorate it in class. The various classes cover beginning cake decorating all the way through advanced gum paste decoration. I think the third course even teaches about making wedding cakes.
If you can't find a class nearby you might consider buying the course kits and working through them on your own. The people at /r/cakewin could probably answer any questions you have. This practice board is really helpful. It comes with the beginner kit but you can buy it separately if you want. You put the pictures of the design you want to practice under the clear plastic cover and pipe directly onto the board. I kept a few cups of plain Crisco buttercream in a ziploc container just for practicing with. Since it was just shortening and sugar I could use the same frosting over and over again.

How much pasta you eat in one sitting has to do with your height and weight, yes. It also depends on what kind of pasta you're talking about. You can likely find approximate measurements for your size somewhere on the internet, then measure out the dry pasta in those amounts.
If you want to make it extremely easy, go with a long-noodle pasta like spaghetti or something similar and use a serving measurement tool to make sure that you're getting the same amount each time. Here's an example of one; here is a different one.
You can also look at the nutrition facts and use measuring cups to measure out serving sizes as labeled on the packaging. The measurements for servings in the nutrition facts are using the dry pasta (before being cooked), so you don't even have to worry about figuring anything out.
If you wind up cooking more pasta than you could or should eat in one sitting before a match or training session, you do not have to throw the excess away. Get out a ziplock bag, put a small amount of olive oil in the bag (start with about a half tablespoon) and then put the leftover cooked pasta in the bag. Shake it up and make sure it's all lightly coated in olive oil - add small amounts of oil if necessary. Put the pasta in the fridge and you can have it the next time you want pasta. To reheat the pasta you can either try your microwave (though I'd only recommend this if your microwave has a Reheat setting option - it effectively uses half-power to heat the food, so that you don't wind up with that dried-out nasty mess you usually wind up with when microwaving leftovers) OR you can boil a new pot of water, drop the noodles in and stir around for about a minute or so, just enough to get them hot again. Then serve as usual.
Nah it's just like a gripping pad thing I had in my kitchen, useful for opening jars and stuff.
I honestly have no idea where to get one, I found it in the kitchen (I still, embarrassingly, live with my mother). I will ask her when she's home! EDIT: the best I can find is here

It looks pretty close to this one.

That's cool. I see it online for about $7. I have this solid plastic one with 4 holes in it that sells for only $3.18.
I ultimately decided against using a decanter, since they don't really do anything for bourbons, but when I was looking into getting one, I decided on this one.
I happen to really like Libby glasses, because I've had a few of their Gibraltar series growing up, and they've survived about every nasty thing I've done to them, including drops from greater than counter height on more than one occasion. Plus, I tend to hate things that are overly ornate, and prefer simple lines with less ornamentation, which I feel like this one mostly delivers on. Plus, that one's dirt cheap, comparatively speaking.
Also contenders:
Or something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Fox-Run-Spaghetti-Measurer-Colors/dp/B000P5HZL2
I think we have three of them, and they were all "free" gifts from buying stuff at kitchen gadget stores.
The circle-bad concept is fine the reason the 3DS's is horrible for extended play is because they used this stupid slippery type of coating for it instead of something with grip. I cut a little circle out of those rubber pickle-jar opener cloths (Usually found MUCH cheaper at your local general store) and glued it to the center of my circle pad. Works wonderfully now.
My jar opener and me...we don't need no man, girl.
not to mention its not a new thing
You should invest in one of these.
Then get one of these
Get a rubber jar opener!
You can still buy them!

Not very inventive, but a Rubber Jar Opener?
Or this if you don't want to be insane and spend around $12 on a spaghetti measure.
Did this last year. Will not do it again.
It really wasn't worth my effort, especially since we're not on a main street and only get a dozen trick-or-treaters anyway.
Edit: These (http://www.amazon.com/Darice-VL169-5-Inch---1-25-Inch-2-Piece/dp/B002JQ0BS4/) might work better than glowsticks, plus they blink. Haven't tried them, just guessing.
Seriously, who would want to associate food with sexual body parts? The fact that none of such products exist on Amazon says that seriously nobody wants that. Absolutely no demand for this at all. Otherwise a bunch of sexual food products would exist
