Just found the app in bed not well. First run tomorrow taking in the beach. Not hopeful but so much inspiration on here.

The fact that you’ll be out there giving it a go is the first step! Go as slow as you can, slow down a bit more and have fun. 😀 It’s a fabulous programme which really works.

Trust in it, and yourself! 👏👍🏻💪🏻😀🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

I know it's easy to say, but probably best not to think too much about it at this point. Just focus on getting out of the door tomorrow and doing what the app tells you. That way you take yourself by surprise. Good luck! You can do it.

When you get started and into it you’ll be kicking yourself for not starting sooner 😀 you’d be surprised at how many times people, including me post just that. So no feeling nauseous or down just get out there, take it very slowly and let us know how it went - good, bad or ugly!

However, one thing I will say is that keen as you are to get out there and do this, please do make sure you are completely well again before you start, even if it means waiting a day or two to get going.

Ok. Good Luck. Don’t be scared, Be positive (easy to say I know but a few runs in and you’ll be ready to take on the world!)

We’re all here for you so don’t hesitate to ask questions or post your many, I’m sure successes. Just take it very slowly and then probably go slower and you won’t go far wrong.

Be up ! It’s one foot in front of the other, not root canal work 😀

You only do this very slowly. That’s why it’s such a successful programme. I was fat as my name implies. Not any more thanks to this life changing plan.
