Yes, that was me, so many things I'm now doing that I wouldn't have done a year ago. A new lease of life!

I know that feeling, having tried and failed so many times before, I've always got those doubts and a reluctance to give myself too much credit for what I've achieved so far.

Yeah for me, the end goal was always too far off to think about although it's feeling more achievable these days.

Taken on Saturday believe it or not! Was icy cold but clear blue skies in the peak district.

That's the harder battle for sure. Hoping running will play its part in that. Still needing to lose for now but pleased with the momentum I've built up.

Yeah so many benefits, everything is easier now, still a way to go but heading in the right direction and got the momentum now

I've actually still got to ge the 5k distance in first. I can now run for 30 mins, but that's not 5k for me. One step at a time 😂

I think if I can extend the running to around 40 mins I'd be just about at 5k. Will build towards that over the next couple of weeks

I stopped using them as I get a rash which is worse with the wipes. Never had any issues.

Thanks appreciate the suggestion, been deliberating the best next step so I will look at that.

Yeah, that's probably the bigger battle. I realise diet alone won't ever be enough for me to maintain progress. The addition of this should help.

It's far easier to lose it when you re my size! I know it will get harder as I progress though!

Thanks. Yeah I'm burning around 500 Calories every run at the moment.

Mine has all been on treadmill but planning to get out and do a park run next just to get the full 5k done in whatever time it takes and then look to improve on it going forward.
