Okie dokie, here are a few tips:

• 1. Check out C25k - It's a structured and widely successful couch (not active) to running a 5k plan. It even has its own subreddit! Great place to start if you are currently not active and want to get into running specifically. Also look into running without heel striking, or also read the book "Born to Run", which is just highly motivational and will get you into the spirit! Here's a download link for an audiobook (torrent).
     
     
     
• 2. I know everyone and their mother's mother has an opinion about the best diet to do, but really I think that the paleo diet is the best all around way to go. Be prepared to ditch all kinds of grains and, if you can manage it, dairy. The best resources for this are Loren Cordain's original work on the subject, and an addendum written by a gym owner named Robb Wolf. I believe this diet, especially when done correctly (i.e. by eating grass fed beef and other high quality meats) has the most sound biological basis, and have also used it to great success (I also happen to recall that you just moved to Arcata, and luckily there is an abundance of high quality grass fed beef around here, as well as wild caught fish and the like). The only reason I am not on it now is because I have moved recently, am still unemployed, and have absolutely no money. I recently did a video blog of my progress on this diet on an 8 week challenge (during which time I dropped a ridiculous amount of weight, over 40 pounds), if you wanna see just PM me, I don't want to post a link to videos of me on Reddit in the open. There is also a subreddit for this, but it's mostly just a circle jerk making fun of vegetarians and showing off what food they ate today. Still though, it can give you some interesting meal ideas.
     
     
     
• 3. Just try to stay active! Hike in the redwood forest, stay on your feet, read up on some basic at home exercises. Supplement the C25K program with some bike riding or something on the off days (it only requires three days a week of running work).
     
     That's what comes to mind! Hope it helps.
     
     
     EDIT - Formatting, and added some links.
     
     EDIT 2 - you asked for websites! This one has an awesome quick start guide and lots of other good stuff. This one has some useful tools. These are the sites of the authors of the books I posted above, I have both books and love them dearly. There are also a TON of data online if you google around!

Just stress - as an undergrad pre-Med student who’s studying for the MCAT & taking a full course load among other things, it just amounts to stress. Cortisol levels (stress hormone) are increased & thus make me retain a small “tire” around my lower waist. It’d probably help if I worked out more & ate better, but don’t have time this semester! I use “sweet sweat”. Read reviews & look at answered questions to see what size people with your frame and weight ordered! That’s what I did and mine fits perfectly. It helps the tire lose the water weight around problem areas, so it may not be extremely permanent unless you keep with it
