Rock climbing! You don't see to many morbidly obese climbers. But if you are overweight you can still climb, just take it slow (well, take it slow if you are a novice in a any shape). Start at a local indoor climbing gym with good instruction. You can do it at any age and even if you struggle with a fear of heights like me (I like to address that fear) It's a blast!
In addition, I'd say some combination of running, hiking, swimming, and body weight exercises (a la the book 'Convict Conditioning') work for me ( no I'm not a convict)

I do not do much cardio as it isn't needed and when I do cardio I shed too much weight (dropped from 175 to 140 pounds over 6 months and kept it that way for two years).
Caught a few words on radio news about fitness & obesity. That caused me to look into it more.
The radio report & what I found was that the highest % of obesity , by occupation seems to be almost the reverse of what I expected it would be. Emergency worker first responders , police/fire etc are the group with the highest % ?? Construction workers , material handlers are way up there as well. Where as scientist, researchers , lab techs etc are in the lowest %
Strange !...google it. There are several charts. It almost seems the more active in general a person is...the more likely that person is to be obese ? Makes no sense too me.
Stress!
