I suggest walking. Start out slow and build up. At the grocery store, avoid processed foods and shop the perimeter. Fruits, veggies, lean meats, healthy fats only, no vegetables oils. Drink water to stay hydrated. These will definitely help.

Could not agree more with that. My sis walked with me last year when I started. I could barely do a mile then. But now I can do two like a breeze and then go further. My knees won't let me run, although I do occasional bursts of it intermittently on good days.
@CinnamonGirlE @PaganMother @lacuda My friend has Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, but she was able to run a 5k at the end of this project.
@CinnamonGirlE @PaganMother @lacuda A friend asked me to be her exercise accountability buddy when she wanted to lose 40lbs so she could donate a kidney to her sister. We walked 5k every day on a hilly course, gradually adding 50-100yd jogs. After a year of this she challenged me to race the town's Turkey Trot with her. She met her weight goal. I went on to become a serious runner. I can recommend the accountability buddy idea.
