Default Excercise for obese people.

Hi there, ladies.

So, a little backstory for you... I am extremely obese. "Morbidly obese" is the term I believe they're using nowadays (5'7" and 305 lbs.). I've been having trouble finding a good, full body work out and I decided to try pilates this morning. I used to do it all the time, and thought I'd give it another go. So I put the DVD on and it starts going... and I couldn't even get through the whole thing because the majority of the positions I couldn't do. Not even the modified ones. It wasn't until after I stopped that I realized that I was about 60lbs heavier than when I first started doing it. I've had trouble with this kind of thing for a while, and I think I need some tips.

So, my question is, does anyone know some really good exercises for obese people like myself? Something that will really get the heart pumping and work all my muscles? Maybe something that I can take a class for, so I get proper instruction?

Thanks in advance!
