Hi. Welcome to the club. :>)) There is a weight loss and dieting forum that has a group and we are all working on losing some weight. Here's a link: https://

So, first, how is your diet? I find that really limiting calories or drastic diets don't work long term. You may lose initially but then gain back more than you loss. So, for me, it helped to rid myself of the most problematic foods. I gave up pop/soda. I gave up processed things like chips and crackers. I cut way way down on sugar. That alone was a big change for me. I then made healthy choices. Three meals and some snacks, portion control, lean meats, lots of vegetables, whole grains, fruit. Drink lots of water. What we eat is the most important thing to weight loss.
Then exercise. whatever you like. Cross train with some weight lifting, cardio and core work. Or again, just do what you enjoy. I like to do classes at the gym. That's my thing. Or I walk and do intervals of speeding up and then walking at a regular brisk pace. Do check with a doctor if you've never exercised before.
