At your weight (even at my 240lbs), cardio is NOT completely necessary. In fact, I had some pizza for 2 out of the last 3 days and lost some weight every day. The most important thing for you is to control the shit out of your diet. Heh, literally.
Step 1) Go to http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.ht
Step 2) Enter your info and note the extreme weight loss result.
Step 3) Click on the "Get macro nutrient ratio" link just below the calculator
Step 4) Enter your extreme weight loss calories, select "Moderate II" and look at the macro nutrient amounts for the 5 meals a day colum.
Step 5) STICK TO THESE FIGURES LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT, with one exception: Every 3 days or so, eat 200 or so more calories. That is called zig zagging. Doesn't matter what it does, just do it.
Now, for what to eat. Shredded wheat, eggs, oatmeal, skinless boneless chicken breasts, any vegetable you can tolerate, whole wheat bread, skim milk. A combination of these throughout the day is the simplest, easiest way to stick to those macro nutrient ratios with healthy food.
The most important part is to track your progress religiously (scale/waist measurements work fine) and whenever you get cravings, tell yourself that when you look back, you'll regret having eaten it.
