The first time I did it, I believe I was 185. Dropped maybe five by the time I was running 5k, but I didn't pay attention to my diet at all back then, and I'm sure I ate back pretty much everything I used.
God, that thing kicked my *kitten* so hard. This was maybe 9 years ago, and I was in truly horrific shape, lol. Was completely out of breath after the very first 30 second jog (!) and I knew it was going to be a rough few months, lmao.0 -
I am doing C25K and am on week 3...I weigh 150lbs, though I was probably 156 when I started. I am 5'3" and have a lot of fat on my body and am extremely out of shape.
I say go for it! I had to repeat week 2 (so I am on week 3, but 4th week of doing it if that makes sense). I may have to repeat other weeks, i do what I can and then I push myself to do more so I don't feel bad about having to repeat weeks.0 -
I started last week at 219.0

When I started the beginning of the year I was 192lbs.0

6'1 2570

There is a person now that is in the C25K group that started at 287 lbs. Weight only holds you back if you let it hold you back.0

228, on a 5'4 frame. Still haven't made it through the first workout, but I'm getting close. Shin splints suck.0

The first time I started I was about 320lbs. This time (I have a 5k in 3 weeks) I am around 270lbs.0

^^^Agree with rdulir.
We all have great excuses not to run. However, I seem to have misplaced mine somewhere around week 7 of the Couch to 5k program.
BTW, I was 220 when I started week one, day one in December. I'm 186 now.0 -
I have done 3 weeks of week 1 and I have just started week 2! I think I might do C25K in 6months! Oh and I'm 169lb 5 ft 6" xxx good luck... If I can do it anyone can.. I have been a smoker since I was 13yrs!0

5'8 and just under 200 lbs, although I didn't follow the C25k exactly, I made up my own variation.0

5'2 and was between 180-185 when I started running... and 39 years old. Never ran in my life before that!0
