  • I ran (jogged slowly) my first 10k today! It was aim to get that distance under my belt this year and am thrilled to have achieved it so early on in the year.

  • Wow! You look amazing - well done! What a fabulous achievement!
  • well done!! i do the same thing myself, regularly, and it's those out of control feelings that i hate most about being overweight/my eating habits. i am on a looong road to righting the wrongs which have become second nature to me but am determined i'll get there and your post is so helpful to realise i'm not alone and…
