So, W1R1 done tonight in the rain. This is me, starting again for the third time in as many months. I’ve been soooooo fed up and am absolutely sick of this low mood. Today I just got my stuff on and got on with it. I’m determined to get to the end of the program again this time...

Go GO GO, It will really help with mood and mental health as I'm sure you are aware. I find just getting my clothes on helps to sometimes sway me to run ( buy wonderful things you love wearing) X

Well done. Your title made me think of the weebles slogan "we wobble but we don't fall down". You're wobbling, not down! Just keep getting out there now and your low mood won't stand a chance! Don't forget to post here it really does help - there's always someone to praise, pull, push you along.

Well done for getting back out there. Its so hard at times and especially with a T issue....bless you.

If i can do this then i know you can. Just take each day as it comes. Some will be good and some wont. I, along with everyone else on here, are with you every step of the way. One day at a time.....each run a victory over the last 😀

Thank you! One of my main drivers for getting back out there is that I’ve been watching your progress- I sort of felt that I’d let you down- but I’m feeling positive again today!

There’s lots of lovely support on here, and the group have pulled me through before, so I’m hopeful. One day at a time... 🙂

I started three times before I finally managed the programme. Keep going - even if you have to repeat a week. It is definitely worth the effort. Good luck
