You know, you won't have to lose 80 pounds just to get to the point where DDR is fun again. If you manage to shed, say, 10% of your body weight, you'll find it's substantially easier to get around and do things. You'll also build a little muscle.

One thing that might help is "useful" physical activity. Instead of going for a walk just to go for a walk, go for a walk TO someplace. When you run errands, go for a more distant parking space. Or, if you have a yard, do some yard work.
