Couchto 5k Hip Hop Podcast-LOVIN' IT!



Recommended Posts

There is a guy in my support group that only does Water aerobics and he has lost a ton of weight! So you are on the right track.

I have not started week 3 because my knee is killing me. I never had problems before. Maybe I pulled something. I bought some liquid glucosomine, maybe that will help with my creeky body.

I just wanted to give you all an update since I had not posted to this thread in a while.

I completed weeks 1 and 2 without incident.

Week 3 I began to have knee pain (sever) that I had never had before. So I did not continue the workout. The pain continued through week four and so did my hiatus from working out.

I began taking liquid glucosomine 7 days ago and started feeling more flexibility in my knee and joints.

Sooo I decided to try to pick up where I left off with week 3. My DH, DS, and I headed to the park today and by the second rum my knee started giving out and giving me severe pain! I stopped running but continued to walk as a workout.

Now my knee pain is back in full force again. I think it's time to go to the dr.!

It is just sad because now that I have the motivation to complete the c 2 5k my body will not cooperate.:rolleyes:

I haven't given up!:wink2:

I am so sorry to hear that. Yes, I think it is best to take a sabbatical from the program. I have not started because, like someone else said, it seems like Mt. Everest to me, however, I have gotten up to 1 hour every other day on the treadmill. Eventually I will get the nerve up to try the running program.

I've finally done it. I did my first day of the couch to 5k. OMG my legs were burnin'!!!!:tt1: I kept telling myself to ignore the burning pain in my legs and I did and when that woman on the Podcast said this is the last run, I had a sigh of relief. All in all, I feel good and am looking forward to doing it again tomorrow.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
