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.

people are very much creatures of habit and of routine. you need to change yours. easier said than done? after a couple of weeks, whatever new routine you create for yourself will BE your routine.
first, go back to the doctor and tell him the vague 'diet and exercise' isn't what you need to hear. he can proscribe a proper diet, or lead you in the right direction. walking a few minutes several times a day might be better for you rather than trying to stuff a larger block into one part of your day. don't go 0-60 right away, start doing more about 3 times a week. work your way into a daily routine. eat on a smaller plate-sounds funny, but that way your plate is full-but it takes less to make it so. eat slowly, it takes time for your brain to realize belly is full-ever eat and about half an hour later you're miserable because you over-ate? drink plenty of fluids, avoid alcohol, sugar and refined carbs such as bleached flour. whole grain is the way to go. have clear soup such as chicken or vegetable broth as an appetizer. avoid sodas and sweets. there are a lot of sugar-free foods out there, they're very good. as for fat free-avoid, as the fat is replaced with sugar. also, your body should get a minimum of 20g of fat a day. also, avoid trans fats at all costs! they are incredibly bad for you. also, eat five smaller meals a day. always eat a light breakfast. and of course, if and when you eat something you shouldn't, don't just quit. you will have moments of weakness. don't chalk it up as a complete failure and give up.

The elliptical trainer machine might be an option for you, too. Much easier on the knees than running ot walking, and it works the arms, too.
I'd also suggest looking into a Pilates class if any are offered in your area-- it focuses on strengthening the stomach muscles, which helps ease back pain. Losing weight may actually help relieve your joint pain, too, making walking easier-- extra weight is extra stress on the joints. Ditto on getting your doctor to give you a specific diet/exercise plan, or get him/her to refer you to a nutritionist for help setting up a specific plan for you.

Take boxing classes!!! My son and me do and there are people of all body types, ages and sexes... It was too funny last week when this woman who likes to wear very low cut tops actually popped out of her top!!
 It was beyond words! but back to boxing... I hate working out... forget the walking and pilates .... tooooo boring!  I really enjoy boxing as it gives you something to really do! Don't get me wrong ... you work really hard and sweat like a pig but I can see muscle lines I haven't seen in ages!  Not to mention.... JJ fears me now!! lol
