It really helps to do it in small steps. It is really hard to try to do everything at once. My first step was to be more active. I take breaks at work and I spend my entire 1 hour lunch walking around outside. Lately, I've been doing speed-walking and a bit of running too now that weather is getting nicer. Once I got into that habit of moving more, I started looking at my diet and changed a few things around. Started by making my meals smaller. Then I took off the extra calories in meals like cheeses and such. Next step I hit the local rec center and be active there. Swimming is great workout and quite relaxing. They even have a small gym so I can hit the weights. Once I hit the weighs, it wasn't long until I started to see muscle composition change. At the gym, I completely ignore the cardio stuff. Cardio stuff I can do elsewhere. So I hit the machines and weights. Before hitting the gym though, I started taking pre-workout supplements like C4 Extreme, it really helps with the energy levels especially after work. After about a year, this has grown up me in such a way that it's like a second nature to do these things and I feel weird if I do miss a day. Your milage may vary and may not be recommended for everyone. But, the only way I was able to pull this off is by starting with small steps. This goes for pretty much everything else in life :)
