Staying fit

Control of your diet is going to be and should be number one concern. Exercise is always good but takes time. Control everything that is within your power. I am certain that you eat everyday, start there.
Average caloric intake for adult male with low levels of activity - no greater than 2300/day
female - 1350/day
Of course if you add activity these numbers can vary, but to just sit there, if you're consuming much more than this, you're going to be or become what many call a "lardass".
Good Luck.

Aerobic exercise is essential for cardiovascular health, and it is even mood enhancing. However, you should also engage in some muscle-building resistance exercise of one form or another to strengthen your bones and stave off osteoporosis: curls for the girls, etc.
The best way is to do something you enjoy!
If you hate jogging you wont keep it up for more than a week or two. If you hate swimming you wont like going to the pool.
OK?
I lost about 80 pounds a few years back, by looking over my diet -eating healthy and taking a brisk walk 60-90 minutes every morning! I really started enjoying my walks, a really good start of the day. I also did some strength training a couple of times a week at the gym.
Nowadays I go jogging a few times a week and strength train. Keeps me in shape pretty well, but lately I have stuffed too much food in me, and over the christmas holidays that will continue I guess...
But beginning new year I will get on it again for sure.
Feel free to PM me if you need specific advise, I'd be glad to help.

Referring specifically to topic, dont sit down.
Standing burns vastly higher rates of calories, just for a start. True.
Forget jogging, running, take up WATER POLO.
Yep, you heard it here first, the most outrageous fitness concept ever invented.
Dont swim laps, forget it, boring, un challenging and very unproductive.
Water polo is THE thing, if your serious about fitness.
Forget jogging, running, weights, trust me on this one.
You wont HAVE the lung capacity to do those exercises, without water polo-
forget swimming laps, THAT is the main reason everyone ISNT doing it, its been determined that swimming must involve a certain stroke, X number of laps.
No-way, that is RUBBISH, and the WORST and slowest way to build actual stamina.

"man about town with half his age girlfreind"

Bwahahaah......oh wait, the next test starts tomorrow, perhaps i should be quiet now...........water polo, it kicks booty for fitness, trust me
