Did y'all wait till you had lost some weight before starting C25K? I really don't want to hurt my knees or ankles by trying to run carrying 250lbs.

Have some good running shoes. DON'T run on concrete.
If your shins start to hurt (mine did) ease off for a few days (and use ice on them)
There's no reason you can't to it, give it a go! xx0
