First off, hats off to you for putting out the effort to start taking care of your health.
I've been someone who has lost 20kgs at one time and have gained 25kgs in another time.
The two most important things that a person getting into fitness should take care of are:
1.) Discipline: Do NOT miss a day of exercise. If you're going to a gym, make sure you show up every day. If you go running in the park make sure you get up and run no matter what. Do it ONE day at a time. Don't do it to reach a long term goal of gaining muscle and losing fat, do it for the daily goal. It is important that you be disciplined, even if you are giving 10%, just do it!
2.) Mindful Eating: You don't have to do fancy diets, or gulp down drywall just to get into the shape of a greek God. Just be mindful when eating. Get into the habit of mindful eating.
These are the two most important factors.
Now, once you've nailed these two down, all you have to do is tweak your daily habits to add specific exercises and eat calculated amounts of food to reach whatever goal you want to achieve!
