Weighed myself today (which is a bit naughty as I only usually weigh myself once a month) and I've temporarily hit 130kg - a 5.5 kg loss over 8 weeks!
Ummmh....: Weighed myself today (which is a bit... - Couch to 5K

Good for you. That's brilliant.
You must feel so much better.
Awesome. Well done

You must be happy with that? I know we would both prefer 5 kg per week but a steady sustained loss in conjunction with fitness is the way forward, you will have replaced some fat with muscle and you will have a heavier water weight due to hydration and inflammation so that's a pretty good result
I get weighed tomorrow but I'm not expecting a lot, I can feel it in myself that my body is changing and all of my measurements have gone down a bit. I tried some old pants on last night as well and although I'm not quite there yet I could definitely fasten the button which I definitely could not prior to starting C25K!

I've set myself a goal of 17 KG's over 12 months, I'm really confident that this will happen. Joining a gym after my Christmas holiday and I'm going to do some strength and core training on my running rest days. My longer term goal is to graduate C25K and then consolidate with 30 mins 3 times per week until this becomes habit and increase this to 60 mins 3 times per week, like you I'm not sure how to do that yet but I'll find out when the time comes, as you say baby steps and before you know it we are flying
Hey! Well done, another achievement, that's great. Although I know I'm bigger than I should be (which is quite a shock considering I was a really skinny, weedy kid 50+years ago) but I've not really weighed myself consistently for over 20 years! I've not changed my eating habits (but continue to be 'careful about what I eat' - that used to mean making sure that all of it went into my mouth) but since starting C25K in September I have already lost 8lb (sorry, old-school scales) but more importantly know that I'm looking thinner/fitter so it's all good for me too.

Great news, well done. Try doing some measurements too, often your shape changes more than you think.

Well done Enxo that’s amazing 😉 I haven’t been on scales since before I started this journey I forgot like an idiot! - quit smoking - last time I quit I put on three stone !!

It’s when you pick up 5.5kg in the gym and realise how heavy that is. How tough would you find it carrying that all day, or out on a run! Just great to put it down. Which is just what you have done. Well done!! X

Well done on your weight loss, imagine running carrying 2 sacks of potatoes or 12 tins of baked beans that’s approx 5kg

I know! When you pick up a 5kg dumbbell it really hits you as to the excess weight you’re carrying! It defo inspires me to loose more. Thanks to all!

Fantastic! 😄 Good for you, - I’m trying to wrestle off a few more pounds & I know the day in day out effort it takes. 😄
