DB Row 3 x 5
Swiss Ball Crunch 3 x 10

Weights "B"

BB Squat 5 x 5
Incl. DB Press 5 x 5
Deadlift 4 x 5
BB Row 5 x 5
Chinups 4 x 5
Reverse Crunch 3 x 10

I alternate between "A" and "B" every 4 days. These routines all work compound muscle groups, which is a good way to keep your muscle mass while losing weight, without getting too fatigued.

I don't know if something like this would work for you, but it's done wonders for me.
