[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To lose weight, you do have to focus on calories, not just exercise.

That said, exercise in and of itself is beneficial, so if all you want to do is exercise, I think that's ok too!  I would really lean into it -- walking, yoga, weight lifting, swimming ... take it slow so you don't get injured, but start working on getting as fit as you can.  There is a lot more to health than the scale, so focus on all the fitness gains you'll make like turning walking into jogging, weight lifting gains, swimming more laps ... It's really fun and feels GREAT!  Don't let anyone shame you into thinking that you're not entitled to feel great about your fitness gains, even if you continue to be obsese. [/quote]

As for home workouts, do you have some money to spend on this?  This is what I have:

- an online personal trainer.  $200/month. priceless because they keep me motivated and tailor workouts to my needs
- yoga mat and set of kettlbells and exercise banks - probably not more than $250
- a fan bike aka assault bike - known to be one of the best, low-impact pieces of cardio equipment for all weights.  also relatively affordable ($800) and compact.  do not let its weird appearance fool you, this thing is serious.  https://www.roguefitness.com/assault-airbike-and-accessories
