Good starter excercise program

I am just over 300 lbs and am extremely out of shape. I need some inspiration from someone who has been here. How do I start this excercise journey?

I started the Couch to 5K running program in January. It is amazing! When I started I could barely jog 60 seconds at a time. Now I can jog 40-50 minutes straight! I have run three 5K races, and plan to run a 10K on April 30th. You really should check it out!

Walk Walk Walk! I started at much high but am almost down to where you are now. I started walking even just 5 min and then increased every week and then added easy chair exercises til I was doing about 40 min. a day.

You can do it! We believe in you!

i started with the biggest loser 30 day challenge! they have a person on each exercise that does it low intensity until you get to the point where you can do more! and it is very motivating!!! it was only $10 at wal mart and all you need is weights. you can get an exercise ball if you want! good luck! so happy you made the decision to become active and healthier!!!

I just rented "Walk Away the Pounds, 4 Mile Challenge" from NetFlix ........I'm only able to do 1 mile right now bt it is sooooo easy. There are no tricky dance moves yo have to learn...your just walking in place at different speeds or raise your hands in air while you do a side step...Super easy but will work you out in the privacy of your home.
