questions about exercise

Well here goes.
how many hours prior to working out should you eat?
Is starting off walking a cardio if you havent worked out in a while?
When weight liftin how should i go about it by starting heavy & ending light or other wise?

Im around 240 & 6 foot
I gained this weight cause i thought it would help to have when i started working out again especially in the lower legs when im doing walking & or eventually jogging.& now Im thinkin that was a bad Idea.

Also what is the best food to eat & how much should I eat meal wise & when should i eat?
(ive been thinkin lots of tuna)

I would suggest you get Bill Phillips book Body For Life. It gives a great starting point for new weight trainers and can answer your questions regarding diet, cardio, and training.
