Started the couch tp 5k app on Monday 30th October and have done two runs so far. I just can't believe it! I'm severely overweight but am using the app for a little me time and to improve fitness. Would love to lose a little weight too but so far just enjoying the half an hour with some music and Sarah Millican 😂
Who'd have ever thunk it?
Well done for making the determination to start, take it slow and steady and watch how you’ll increase your stamina. Above all keep enjoying it 
Yes yes! Go you. Take each one as it comes. Don't over think it. Stay hydrated and never forget you've already done the hardest bit! Good luck 👍👍
Good work for starting out - I started on Monday too! Did my 2nd run last night I did C25K two years ago and was totally shocked at how much I loved it...Then had a two year break so I've had to take myself back to the beginning again. Hoping to lose some of the er..several stone I need to ditch, but like you said, the half hour of music and Sarah Millican is brilliant whatever happens! Good luck with it, have fun 
Well done to you! I graduated in August, am overweight and quite old, but I succeeded! It's great for 'me' time and you feel a sense of accomplishment. As some other posters have said , you've done the hard part by starting. Good luck and share your journey with us 🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️
Brilliant, well done, we all know how much determination and will-power it takes to even get off the metophorical couch, so I think you're doing wonderfully.
Do let us know how it goes, and don't be afraid to be really slow!!

Welcome, I too am very overweight but I have now lost 2kgs. I'm on Week 6 run 2 done this morning. I also have Sarah Millican, she's great. You're right half an hour every other day with nothing other than SM and music and the elation of having completed a run keeps me smiling. Enjoy the journey and as everyone will tell you, slow and steady.
Indeed.. very, very well done you! Move often and the weight will eventually will start to go
Thanks for all the lovely messages! Gives me a wee boost ahead of run 3 this evening.
Dare I say I'm looking forward to it?
