Hi there Aeropostale
The only resource you really need to lose weight is your brain. You have to get your brain into the right mindset and the rest falls into place. You have to want to lose weight more than you want to over eat and lazy about - but it sounds like you've got the brain under control.
Walking is a great way to start out, you can add in other more varied things as you get into the fitness habit. 45minute to an hour 6 days a week at a brisk pace will do it - as you get fitter you'll walk faster and lean down and tone up more. After 6 weeks everything wobbles a lot less. After 3 months you will look and feel incredibly different and you'll never want to quit.
Diet - a good breakfast within an hour of waking up, a decent lunch of complex carbs and lean protein with some mainly unsaturated fats and a smaller dinner with minimal carbs is a basic start. Make sure you eat healthy snacks between meals, so you are eating 5-6 times a day. Plenty of water and you are set.
It's going to take longer than you want, but if you do it right it will last longer too (a lifetime of being fit, looking great and feeling happy in your own skin; how good is that!)
