A good start would be to start walking - that is a brilliant basic exercise to get going and suitable for all shapes and sizes. I wear a pedometer all day long every day and suggest that you do this too.

For food, a good start would be to ensure that you are eating enough fruit and veg, and protein - and maybe cutting down on sweets and biscuits, pastry, cake etc - also cutting down on alcohol which is a waste of calories too.

There are sections on the forum on exercise and nutrition - so I suggest you browse those - especially sticky threads.

I am setting up some challenges which may help motivate you towards walking and sticking to some basic nutrition rules.
