One of the best ways to lose weight is to be in a caloric deficit and this can only be done if you burn more calories than you take in, so getting active and burning those calories is really important. If you struggle to exercise then making sure you get some help will boost your abilities, hiring a PT or even looking into things like Dynamic DNA Laboratories who can create exercise programs for weight loss based on your DNA, this will help to give you something to work at and give you something to follow which in turn should help to keep you motivated and allow you to exercise better.
