I work out at Curves and, in the middle of the gym, they have this display set up on a table. I swear, if THIS will not motivate you, I don't know what will:
This is what a pound of fat looks like:
This is what a pound of muscle looks like:
There's a significant difference there, huh?
Also, what exercise would you like to do? Aerobics? Talking long walks? Cycling? Swimming? The key is to change it up and find things that are ENJOYABLE to you so it seems like less of a workout and more like fun!

On a Weight Watcher board I frequent, there's a 5 lb sample of fat, it's so gross.
Please consider not only excersizing, but also diet modification- I've already lost 23 lbs (I suspect I've gained more in muscle than I have lost in fat) with diet modification and excersize, and the benefits of walking, even, 1-2 miles a day are amazing.
Also consider light weight training, especially in both your back and stomach .. (but I do mean light) low intensity-high repitition weight excersize will help your back become stronger, and help you build muscles that eat your fat like crazy.
