Welcome to you ! Be warned, though, that initially you may well not actually lose any weight, unless you’re also following a healthy eating plan. This programme turns fat into muscle and muscle is heavier than fat, so your weight may actually increase. However you will become fitter and more toned, so you’ll LOOK lighter ! Muscle also burns calories quicker than fat, so it’ll all even out in the end. Happy running 😀

Check out the link from IannodaTruffe ..essential reading there.. and great advice:)

Welcome to one of the best things ever!

Link this with a healthy eating regime and whether you lose weight or not you are going to feel fitter and stronger and healthier...Maybe take a peek at our sister site.. Weight Loss UK... many friends on here, are on there also.. the two plans work well together!

Are you a seahorse? You may find jogging difficult without feet 🤣

Welcome. Good luck with the weight loss. Running may not deliver that, but will tone you up and give you more fitness for other exercises, not to mention the health benefits. Shedding pounds generally needs nutritional change. Enjoy your running journey, you can do this.
