Ashley writes: Im overweight. Im 80 pounds overweight to be exact. Im almost 34 and had my second child 7 weeks ago via emergency c-section 6 weeks early. Im a type 2 diabetic, which was a contributing factor in the decision to take him early. Ive always been overweight with the exception of a couple brief periods in my 20s. I remember how great it felt to run on a treadmill and not feel like...... my chest was going to explode or my legs fall off. Today I took control and started the Couch to 5K program. I wasnt able to jog the entire scheduled time, but I was out there. It felt good. I know next time will be easier. And come this fall Ill be more than ready for the 5Ks I want to do. The posts here are inspiring, and the honesty of people is encouraging and motivating. I dont run. Im not active. But I have 2 small boys who need a mommy who can play with them, play tag, practice sports with them and keep up. I gotta do this.
