Start off at a slow pace. Drink only water from now on and as much as you can. limit your food intake and whenever you work out always be in a positive mood.
Going to the gym:
elipticol-10 mins
treadmill-5 mins
stretching-15 mins
ab workout-5 mins
weights: spend at least an hour here and do 3 sets of 15 on each machine
Going outdoors:
walking-30 mins
jogging-10 mins
stretch-10 mins
Now this will help you get started and then always increase time and weights when you can.HAVE FUN =)
