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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
