You are not that far overweight where you cant be helped with simple changes in diet and a major commitment to exercise. But if you are not willing to work hard at the exercise, you can forget about losing the weight.
Like Pgard says, if your knees cant take jogging and running, start with speed walking. You need to do a lot more of this than you would if you could run. Wont burn as many calories but if you can committ to an hour a day, you can accomplish what you need to.
Start lifting weights 3-4 times a week, mainly concentrating on the bigger body parts like back, chest and shoulders. Walking and maybe eventually some light jogging will take care of your legs. You dont need a gym, just go out and get yourslef an adjustable bench and 4-5 sets of dumbells, maybe intervals of 20-30-40-50-60 to start.
Eat more meals with less calories in them. 5-6 times a day would be ideal and nothing after 5pm since you are not in the kind of shape where your body will burn calories in your sleep.
