Ok time to get back in shape.

Do you have a naturally bigger body type? I'm 6'3 and I can't get past 210...
Also, I hate cardio that doesn't involve some sort of competition, basketball/soccer etc. So I started hot yoga, burns around 700 calories, helps with breathing better and stretching, it's relaxing and lots of booty to look at during the class

I hate cardio that is on a hamster wheel. This is why I do it outside of the gym unless absolutely necessary. This is why I like walking along the trail by my work. Very pretty scenery to talk my mind off the cardio work. I have wanted to try hot yoga but never done any yoga before and finding the time for it is tough.
I am definitely a naturally bigger guy but there is way to much fat right now. If I can drop a good chunk of that I will be happy.

Yeah. Any suggestions for a fairly cheap bike? I had a single speed but got rid of it since it was not pleasant to ride. Don't want to spend to much since I'm not going for crazy rides.

As for a bike you can spend from $200 to $8000+ on a bike. I would take a look on Craiglist to see what is out there. Nothing wrong with a couple year old well maintained bike, you will save a shit load over buying new.

Get a bicycle. The walking isn't nearly enough for your size. Or jump in the swimming pool. Try spin class - if I don't have a match fro 2-3 days I'll pop into a spin class and come out drenched and knackered!

Yes. And the first thing I would do is get fitted at a reputable bike shop. Being cheap due to your circumstances is not a bad idea, but it's key to buy a bike that fits you.

Cool sounds good. And spin class is a definition of hell for me so no thanks to that. I would probably just be riding it along some of the bike trails around me so no need for anything crazy.
I am down to 230 as of this morning so it is going good!
