I have been looking at several C25K apps on iTunes and I cannot decide which is the best. Can any one give me the pros and cons of the one you use. Will one of the free ones be good enough?

Yes. The one i have is called Run Double. I believe it was free and you can use it with or without your playlist. You can repeat runs if you dont feel comfortable going forward.

I use the C25K app by Zen Labs. I like it. It allows you to do a week over and you can play your music as well. You can also run the app in the background and use another app at the same time. Like for me, I use the C25K app and run my Nike+ app at the same time, that way I get my cals calculated as well as the pace.

I haven't found a "con" to it. Overall I'm pleased. And you can also share your achievement on social networks. Plus it doesn't kill the battery.

Good luck :)

I use the same one lalaj uses. I have the free version and one thing I don't like is that it doesn't post much to my Facebook. I have a group of friends who are real supportive and it just simply says that I completed the day. I am a big fan of the Runkeeper app. Not a couch to 5k one but I enjoy it.

I use Ease into 5k. I like the intervals better than C25k. I love that I can listen to my own music! Great ap.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
