  • Thanks for the replies! I realized after the fact that I'm done with stage 2 :) But it's good for future reference!

  • You are experiencing a perfectly normal thought process after losing a lot of weight. I struggled with it for months. I was even considering therapy at one point because I just couldn't see or feel the 100 pound difference. It's hard for someone that hasn't lost a lot of weight to understand. I lost 100 pounds but still…

  • Sounds like a side stitch. You can get them when you push too hard or don't breathe right. There are several things you can try. Try timing your breathing. Breathe in when your right foot strikes and keep breathing in for three strides. Make sure it's a deep breath; your stomach should be moving in and out, not your chest.…

  • I was nervous when I started C25K last year. I cried on the first day because I couldn't even finish three of the eight one-minute runs. But I kept going. I had to repeat some weeks because I couldn't finish them. Fast forward: I finished, ran my first race, and now I'm addicted to running! I'm hoping to find a 10K to do…
