Here's my recommendation: Ride a bike. Ride long, ride regularly and ride hard. The pounds will melt away and you'll feel younger than you have in years.
QFT. Biking uses incredible amounts of calories. Upwards of 700 per hour if you bike vigorously. And you can do it for a much longer amount of time than running.

I promise you I can run for a longer period of time than you can bike. It's all about practice.
I've been a runner my whole life, and it's good for you, and it's practical. I mean, when I was younger, and the cops busted a party, did I hop on my bicycle and pedal away? No, I booked it, they couldn't even keep me in sight. Running is extremely practical in every day life. The love of your life is leaving on a train, what are you gonna do, hop on your bike and ride next to the train? No, you've got to RUN next to the train!

Uh, no, not really. For me the farthest I have ever run straight is 5 MPH for 45 minutes on a treadmill. I was almost dead when I finished. I could hardly breathe or walk. Sure I don't run a lot, but I'm not in bad shape. On the other hand I can hop on my bike and ride quite hard for 2-2.5 hours and not be about to die when I get off the bike.
