Good websites to help lose weight/be healthy?!?! HELP ;\?

Okay so my family isnt blessed genetically.... my grandfather died of a heart attack when he was 46, my mom got high blood pressure at 46 and is overweight, and my brother's blood pressure is now being monitored & he has chest pains ever so often. Recently, my mom's brother had a aneurysm and hopefully he'll make it :( I guess wht Im getting at is Im scared at not only my own health down the road, but more so...my family's. I know my mom and brother could exercise more and I think if they had some motivation, they could get into better shape and hopefully reduce their blood pressures?!? Are there any good websites tht anyone can recommend tht give good workouts?? My mom is on b.p medication and her knees are bad so running is sorta a no go. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Sitting and browsing websites all day WON'T help you lose weight and be healthy.... Jk :)

    Try this site http://www.prevention.com/health/

    And if you have bad joints and running is not for you, try swimming, it relieves stress on joints and gets your heart rate up if you do it right
