I really don't understand why most people are fervent diet-only.
A lot of people I know get by just fine exercising once a day and eating whatever they want, and my best friend even lost a good deal of weight while making no changes to his diet. My dad on the other hand couldn't lose any weight until he started exercising, and he was on an all-liquid diet for months.
I'm mentally contrasting this with friends of my mother who attempt to diet and get absolutely nowhere, but don't exercise.
Bottom line, as long as energy in < energy out you will lose weight.
Edit: I forgot to add that if you are just starting a program, start very slow, and don't rush it. There will be plenty of time to work up to something but it is very important that you not injure yourself starting out.
