Thank you so much for responding to my question! This has given me so much more motivation, and I really appreciate the helpful information. I'll post back to let you know what I've done, and what helped (or not). Sounds like I need to add some fish to my diet (which hits the mark with my protein question), shake things up a bit with altering my workout routine, and add some muscle while I'm losing the fat.
It's been a wonderful, and difficult, journey. I didn't think I could actually lose the weight, and my body has changed so much that it feels great. The benefits are remarkable---I thought I would just be lucky to lose 5 pounds, and would have to starve myself or deny myself the entire time---but I have learned how to eat better, enjoy my food even more and my entire body has changed. I am not as bothered by the summer heat, my clothes fit better, my skin looks better, I'm more energetic, and look forward to exercising (most days). Oh, and yes, this has taken me 8 months to accomplish.
