Careful with running if you haven't done it in a while. Its actually pretty harsh on the body - I reccomend running on soft ground, grass... or the beach even. It's pretty hard on the beach but you get a better exercise. If you have a bike - awesome, take it up.
Around 2 months ago when my ex broke up with me... I had to do something... I'm down to 205lbs from 225lbs... I started by running and now I have to go to Physical therapy for Shin Splints... so I just bike now. I spend 3 hours, 3 times a week, biking - thats around 700 calories burnt per session. The rest of the week... I'll lift some weights. It won't burn calories that much, but it will increase your metabolism. As for eating, just eat healthier foods... but don't starve yourself, you will yoyo and eat crazy. Have 5 smalllllllll meals a day, instead of starving yourself - you will just pig out at night that way.
Set some goals, BMI and Weight - but more importantly, a dedication goal. How much time are you going to spend with this? I believe the current revised recommendation is an hour a day, 6 days a week. You need to work out for that length to start digging into fat stores. If you think you don't have enough time for that - you may be wrong. After youve been working out long enough, you become more efficient, and less tired, you may be able to sleep 8 instead of 9, or 7 instead of 8 hours a day, and you will get things done in a more timely manner. The time spent exercising pays you back in so many ways.
