Ideally something I can do with my #dog. And if it's a team sport or something you do in a group, it should be something lots of queer-friendly people do (dressing room issue and all that).
I currently weigh more than twice my usual weight (correction: "almost", not "more than) and very much lack stamina.

Okay, that's all for the question, now I'll just list what I did in the past and my thoughts about doing that again.

#running: For a short time I was quite the long distance runner and very motivated. I was 18 and the laps I ran got much longer from day to day.
I just talked about that with my therapist and now I'm really motivated to do that again and it's something I can do with my dog.
I know I have to start really slow and improvement will come a lot harder this time. I remember I ruined a lot of running shoes and they were not cheap. Now with my weight they will be destroyed even faster and I need good shoes to spring my weight.

#biking: I did a lot of that all my life until about 5 or more years ago my bike got stolen. I currently have a really bad bike - just enough to get started at all again, but if I really want to do this more again, that will cost a lot.

#hiking: Definitely something I could do with my dog and probably better for footwear than running. Downside: Takes a lot of time.

#basketball: I played as a kid and I loved it. Apart from running this was the only sport where I pushed myself to go on even if I was out of breath. Can't imagine to do this now until I get more fit.

I once did a course called #FreestyleMoves (preparation for #FreeRunning and #pacours).
That was really great, but also not for now.

#yoga: Probably a good idea to start again soon.

#FloorExercises (more concrete: #BodyWeightExercises) Can't hurt either. My "specialty" were #handstands. Wonder if I could still do one.

#climbing: In a hall, two meters high, without a rope, there's a word for that. (I was told it's #bouldering) Too heavy for that atm.

#FitnessCenter: I even went to one of those for a while and was quite muscular - sixpack and all.

(addendum: I was reminded in the replies about #swimming and #NordicWalking. I did both of that too in the past and might try again - good stuff.)

(Also, I just remembered: #juggling: Great for doing whenever I have a little time and don't want to break a sweat.)

Yeah I did quite a lot of #sports for some phases of my life (might even have missed some) and I would love to get #fit again, #LoseWeight and get a #routine.
Meeting other people while doing that would be another plus, but as I said: only in a queer(friendly) community.
