Smaller meal portions, replace soft drinks with water, start exercising (yoga, cardio, weight lifting), control your calorie intake. That's about it, really.
Calculate your BMR: http://www.muscleandstrength.com/tools/bmr-and-daily-calorie-calculator.html (http://www.muscleandstrength.com/tools/bmr-and-daily-calorie-calculator.html)
And take off 200-500 calories from what you get. That caloric amount is something you should aim for.

You can also try http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/) I make use of that to keep track of how much I'm eating and what not. Also drink water more regularly in place of other drinks, I found that helps me a bit.
