I would look into some aquatic aerobics classes. I busted my knee last year to the point where I could barely walk and for rehabilitation, I did water aerobics at my local gym. It's a tough workout that really does have almost no impact on the knees.

Swimming is the best thing. It takes the weight off our your knees and there are many places with aerobic classes in the pool.
Also, have you tried a stationary bike? Although it moves your knees, it is easier because it isn't weight-bearing.

The good news is that for all regular people diet is at least 95% of the solution to weight management. Inability to exercise is not an excuse for being over weight.

if you don't have access to a pool invest in a 4lb exercise hula hoop- you can get them on ebay cheap. It sounds nuts- but it will keep you in good shape- gives you a strong core and legs and arms.
