Here is the 30-day challenge that I copied from one of my fallowing instructors on the internet. He says it’s good to change weight during this challenge.
*Protein shake cannot replace full breakfast meal. You have to eat carbs because you need to refill the glycogen after the cardio. You can mix your protein with yogurt or milk to have a better effect. Add your protein shake on every breakfast. When you don’t do training in the mornings, you can just have your protein shake and that’s it.
Before cardio in the morning, you should drink lemonade without sugar or honey. Just pure lemonade. More lemon, less water. It’s going to refresh you. If you feel like you could do a 10minute cardio before you eat your breakfast, do it. That is going to speed up your metabolism. Cardio could be jogging, squats and pushups, punching, whatever you like to do. Personally, I do not consume cardio before breakfast because it makes me feel a little bit dizzy.

Lunch has to be high protein meal with a little bit of omega 3 fats (these improving your brain functioning) and few grams of carbs. Eat fewer calories on your non-training days because you won’t be able to burn them. After about 4 hours after lunch, you should eat your (Meal 3/ Snack).

It has to contain more carbs or fats because you need them to maintain energy through the workout.*Because your training is in the morning, you should fallow training day nutrition plan(just for meal 3-snack) like Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday. Carbs are not the enemy. Remember that.
Your training has to be cardio. For example The Stairmaster for 30min on your workout days. When you are on the treadmill, set it to a high incline and do 15-second sprints with 45 seconds of rest for 10 rounds. Variants of sprints and jogging are good for your heart and pulse.
Your body burns more calories when your workout isn’t monotonous; jumping rope is a good way to burn fat too if you know how to use it. I do not know if you are capable of these. You always can set lower goals on your workouts and then slowly improve and get better.
If you are not in training, try jogging, only. I will leave the training program as it is but you can choose what time of the day you want to do it. I made this cardio plan that you can combine with your BJJ training but if you feel you don’t need it, just skip it.
Your post-workout meal has to contain little carbs because you need to refill that glycogen your muscles have spent. Of course, proteins for building them. It must not contain red meat or something hard to digest.
I hope this was helpful. I really tried. Be patient, please. Just try hard, be persistent. The most important thing is not to eat fast food, fats, sugars, and follow up on this diet plan for your aims.
