I also moved my weight rack upstairs in my office behind me. It cramps my room but I don't care. I have been starting to walk on the treadmill a lot while I work and have started lifting weights again. Nothing too heavy as I haven't lifted in a while. I was never a huge lifter anyways. When I was in tip top shape I was around 180 so definitely not a huge guy. I am already feeling better and can tell I am getting some muscle back but haven't really lost any weight which has me slightly concerned. And I know that muscle weighs more than fat but I was fully expecting at least a few pounds.

It happens. When it does I find that getting moving helps me get things started, but to lose weight diet is 95% of it. Even if not doing some hardcore diet, just food journaling and trying to keep a daily average under 2,000 calories reverses the trend. Good luck whatever you do
