Becoming a better, new self

Only two years ago I was at 120 lbs, super active, super happy and in a very good place in my life.

Most days I spend in front of my laptop watching TV shows while longing for some social interaction and outdoor sports.
I know I cant change all this from today to tomorrow; but I have to start changing at some point and this can only happen with baby steps. Every move into the right direction is a good one!

My Goals:
I need to lose 30 pounds, start a new exercise program that involved social interaction, competition and progress (and is outdoors!), and learn and stick to the new Raw Food Lifestyle I discovered for me!
My Program:
I'm looking to join a running team, do the Mud Run here in Essex in January, join a professional kickboxing team and find people who want to go kayaking with me!
Personal Information:
I'm from Essex, a college student but working full time as well! A busy body who is always looking for a fitness buddy!

Because you ARE. 
on taking the first steps to a healthier you. A 
toast to a healthier and more enjoyable life! 
prayerfully you will find that you can enjoy it more than you would ever imagine!!! 
to Spark People. 
This sight has so much to offer! One of the easiest ways to learn a lot about what it has to offer is to go to your "My SparkPoints" tracking Page. Next to each opportunity to earn Sparkpoints there is a link that will take you to the place on the site that helps you complete the task. Some are one time opportunities, others are daily tasks. Complete as many tasks as possible per day. 
don't 
to the temptation of making the journey all about the numbers. It is not about pounds taken off or inches trimmed, it is all about creating a healthier and more fit you. 
Be on the lookout for the many, many, many non-scale non-tape measure victories you will achieve. Feeling healthier, breathing easier, enjoying activities that were once a drudgery, trying something new and enjoying it, choosing a healthy snack versus an unhealthy option, choosing a less than healthy food option over a decadent food option! The possibilities for non-scale victories are ENDLESS. 
drink plenty of water every day! 
sleep well, it is probably more important than you know. 
healthier every day. 
Don't go the way of total deprivation, it is apt to set you up for failure and a binge that will leave you feeling devastated. Look for opportunities to 
every day. 
when you need to --it is healthier than emotional eating! Find ways to 
exercise that you ENJOY. The right form of exercise is the one you can stick with regularly!!! Something else may burn more calories in a shorter time, but if it makes you give up you won't burn any calories! 
MAKE EVERY STEP COUNT. Even steps that seem to move you backwards or to the side have a purpose. Sometimes it is just to get another look at something you passed by without noticing. 
KICK THEM TO THE CURB. You aren’t interested in FINDING them again. GET RID OF THEM through hard work, determination, accountability, whatever it takes!!!
