Exercise tips please?

I have recently decided to try and loose weight and have started a healthier diet in order to do so. I would also like to start exercising to help with the weight loss.

I have Achilles tendonosis, which means that my heels and ankles are very weak so I am unable to run or walk for great distances. I have taken up swimming but was wondering if anyone else had any ideas as to what I could do in order to increase my activity level.

Thanks

    How about bike riding, yoga, and pilates?

    Weight training would also be good, even if you keep the weights relatively light.
