My tips:

Make sure not to eat any carbohydrates at night, say after 6pm.

Eat every 2-3 hours, a small meal, instead of eating 3 big meals. Must always pack healthy snacks if you work or travel during the day.

Go to a health food store and find a protein shake that tastes good to you. You can use this as one or more of your meals.

Find a gym or buy a cheap weight set and start building some muscle. Muscle burns fat.

I'm assuming you're a man. If so, you're taking it way too easy on the elliptical machine.

I'm 51 and today I burned 652 calories in 40 minutes, cooldown included. I am no specimen.

You need to start pushing yourself toward 500 calories in a 30 minute period.

Eat a Subway tuna sandwich with veggies and spicy mustard instead of mayo as a meal whenever you can. Drink water constantly. If you own your house, spend lots of time in the yard. Take the stairs. Walk everywhere you can. Move constantly.
