Try playing a sport that you enjoy, that will burn calories, make you run and sweat, and that you can enjoy with friends. Indoor soccer is great, as is hockey, basketball or any other non-contact sport that is always in constant motion. Ever see a FAT basketball player? LOL...(Swimming is good for you, too...)
Try snacking on a bite, and ONLY a bite of chocolate a few minutes before you eat. That little bit of sugar can often stave off that desire to go for "seconds" at the dinner table, or even make you take a smaller first helping. Avoid the buffet and order a-la-carte meals instead. You will be less tempted to want more because of the extra costs involved when you eat out.
Above all else, take a "before" photo and a new photo each week for comparison. Otherwise you won't see the differences, as they will be so subtle. But putting the photos in a line each week will show how you are progressing, and you will have a trophy at the end that will be envied by everyone who sees those photos...

The trick is to do something you love doing, which might mean trying a few things - a lot of people think they don't like exercise when in fact they just don't like jogging or going to the gym. Climbing is good exercise, ice skating, rollerblading, salsa dancing classes (or tango/hiphop - whatever your personal taste in music), walking/hiking, swimming in lakes/leisure pools...
A great motivator is to get a heart rate monitor that has calorie counting on it - you'll be surprised how much you burn off without breaking a sweat.
I've lost a stone through exercise without dieting (in fact I eat more) but don't expect immediate results - it takes 6 weeks to notice the difference but after that it should be a steady weight loss.
Good luck!

i have a mini trampoline which is great fun. All that bouncing about, the weight just falls off. I was never much into keeping fit till I got one & now Im addicted. Feel like a little kid again.

Commit to a lifestyle change of diet. Fresh fruits, veggies, lean meats. Drink lots of water and low calorie liquids. Eat healthy and exercise. You can still have fun because it's a new life you're living.'

Go on a diet & do what you enjoy that doesnt directly effect your diet. ie. I could go on a diet & play football. (lost weight & enjoy playing the game I lvoe).

Dance! Take a hike! Do something you enjoy! If exercise is fun you'll keep doing it. Don't force yourself to do something you don't like or you won't stick with it.
