Start out with low impact activities such as walking on the treadmill, light swimming, or using the stationary bike to reduce joint strain. Taper off the amount you eat in a day by a small amount and stick to that diet for multiple weeks, weighing yourself every morning fasted, or take progress photos fasted once a week. If you do not notice any changes, taper off more food or increase activity, do not change both. Once you get to a healthy weight for you, begin to add in running slowly.
