Congratulations on starting C25K, however, running in itself won't get your dress size down to fit, a good healthy diet will also help reduce your weight if that is what you want. ๐Ÿ˜Š

C25k is an amazing plan and really does work you'll get lots of encouragement and support on here. Also be really mindful of what you are eating. Good luck ๐Ÿ˜Š

Well done on starting the programme - it's a great way to up your fitness, firm up the old leg muscles and also a good way to motivate you to eat more healthily. You get into the "my body is a temple" mind set for one thing, plus, intuitively anyway, losing weight will make it easier to do the running. Best of luck!
