I never used to be able to jog/run at all partly because I'm really concious about being seen out in public because I look nothing like a runner/athlete lol and also because I'm not fit at all but I got the courage to do it in the end, so I downloaded the C25K podcasts and started doing it at 5am, I felt great after my…

I was supposed to be starting it back up again today but my in laws are here so now I've got to move it around again and start Thursday since I do C25K every other day so now instead of 30DS Tue/Thu/Sat it is now going to be Thu/Sat/Sun GRRRR was looking forward to starting it again today as well!

I usually eat after my workout because I do it first thing in the morning, (5am) so I usually eat when I get to work at 7am.

I usually have some fruit and fibre cereal, I've started having mixed fruit with natural yoghurt.

I'm pretty good at resisting the cake at work. Even though it looks delicious I have to say no to myself!!

Being the only fat one at a family meal and certain people looking at me, i wanted to cry!

I want to get back down to 127lbs or a little bit less (see profile pic for an idea), I really let myself go over the past couple of years and now I'm working really hard to try and get back to how I was, where I was alot more confident and happy. Plus I get married next September (2013).

i'm on week 4 currently, i'm really proud of myself for getting as far as I am at the moment, I never used to be able to jog at all but now I can do alot more. I repeated week 2 because I felt i wasn't ready to move on to week 3 and also I messed up the days slightly with different things going on so had to get back on…

I'm on week 4 run 3 tomorrow eeeek getting harder and harder each week which is expected really i suppose lol! But I'm really enjoying it, before i couldn't even run a few steps but now I can do a lot more, it's a great achievement to me being able to run more and more each week!

Yea I gain about 5lbs when its TOM, I never weigh myself on the week that I'm on because I know the scale will jump up!

I've made that before, I usually make cakes for the guys at work and I'm pretty good at resisting them as well

I exercise in the morning so I'll have some muesli or other type of cereal when I get to work at 7am and then maybe a piece of fruit about an hour after that. I've actually found that if I eat breakfast any earlier than 7 ish then I feel like i need to snack more, but having breakfast about 7 ish now it keeps me going…

I start week 2 tomorrow, I kind of screwed last weeks week 2 up so I'm doing it again as of Monday. Before I even stepped out the door I was thinking negative things like I was going to stop half way on day 1 etc, but then as I was doing it and I felt everything getting more exhausting something triggered in my head to…

Ha ha I had this problem too earlier after I'd started it back up today lol

I start usually the next day

I'm in the UK, Worcester, feel free to add me.

I stopped it because I worked out the days wrong i thought I would finish the whole course by the time I went away in june but I was actually way out so I haven't got back into it since getting back, but now I'm on C25K and since I'm getting used to it ok I'm introducing 30ds on alternate days to the C25K which I'm…

I kind of screwed up week 2 this week due to stuff happening in the week so I'm doing it again as of Monday. Whenever i go out to do it I always doubt myself at the start thinking I'll never finish this day etc, but then as I'm doing it and I'm thinking of stopping jogging something triggers in me to keep going and…

I think hurtful comments gives me more motivation. Sometimes I have to stare at myself in the mirror which gets me down but then gives me more motivation to lose the weight. The worse thing for me is when people e.g. family members know you're dieting and come out with "god you've lost weight" when it is blatantly not…

I've finally got round to starting it, yes I'm struggling because my calfs are quite muscular and always feel really heavy and like they're pulling me down but i push through it and make it to the end. I'm currently doing week 2, well I screwed it up a bit this week so instead of doing 3 days on it as recommended I only…

Wow thats amazing well done

i've cut down on the chocolate and only have a small treat on a Saturday or Sunday sometimes not at all. I've stopped junk food as in takeaways because we were getting out of hand with the dominos pizzas, so it's just a once a month thing now for me, my other half will sometimes order one more than once a month and I'll…

Sometimes I will log everything I have planned to eat for the day in the morning, and sometimes I have to go back to it and delete or change things because of one thing or another, but then sometimes I log food as I eat.

I'm needing to lose about 40lbs, I'm hoping this eat more to lose weight helps, I've been stuck in a rut for months I've hardly lost anything since January, so I'm up for trying anything.

It was much harder but still felt good after, I found some of the cardio moves a bit difficult at the start and then I got the hang of it.

I've done level 2 day 1 today, jesus that was difficult! Bring on tomorrow lol!

I'm also interested in suggestions/answers.

Last day of level 1 tomorrow move onto level 2 Monday eeeeeek!!!

Me I'm from Worcester!

So when you do C25K on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday are you also doing the 30ds on those days as well??
