Down 74 pounds.. really need exercise advice.

For context, I'm 36 M, 5'11, and my highest weight was 420#. I lost some weight and decided to get weight loss surgery around 390#, and now I'm currently at 316#.

My biggest issue is exercise. I know losing weight is 99% diet, but I need to start incorporating exercise, I just don't really know what to do or how. I loathe, LOATHE walking. It hurts, it's uncomfortable, I would rather cycle or really weight lift, and that's what I have been focusing on mostly.

My biggest concern is that I'm lifting weights wrong. Also, I have been trying to do push ups daily. They're the knee on the ground push ups, and I can do about 3 sets of 12, with a 10 second break inbetwen sets. I'm not even sure if doing these types of push ups are beneficial. I'm doing curls with a 5lb weight, and then arm lifts (I don't know the official name, but it's where you lift your arm straight away from your body, like you're making a T-pose).

I want a personal trainer but I can't afford one currently, and I've tried watching videos online but I can't seem to find ones that help.

Is anyone able to give any advice? I'm open to hearing whatever. Thank you in advance.
