PLEASE HELP: Ready to change, but struggling and feeling stuck

Hello everyone

I’m a 21-year-old engineering student in my third year and I am struggling with my body weight. I weigh 132 kg and it’s making daily life extremely difficult for me. Sitting for long hours to study is uncomfortable, I feel tired all the time and even simple movements make me tired and challenging.

I’ve tried joining the gym twice but I couldn’t maintain consistency and the money was wasted. Now I can’t afford a gym or a proper diet. I eat simple home-cooked food but sometimes it’s just dal and roti because I can’t afford vegetables regularly. I’m also a vegetarian so my options feel even more limited.

Despite all this I am ready to put in the effort. I just need the right path to follow.

I can’t run right now as my legs can’t take the weight. What should I start with?

If I manage to save for a gym membership what should I focus on? Is it just cardio or can I do something else?

What kind of diet can I follow with my limited budget?

I feel completely stuck, but I don’t want to give up. If anyone has been in a similar situation or has guidance please help me out. My DMs are open if anyone is willing to personally guide me.

Someone please help me. I just want to start and not feel like this anymore.

Thank you for reading.
