Couch To 5K -- Anyone Want To Join Me?



Recommended Posts

Well I started, stopped due to laziness and snow storms, started again, then stopped again due to illness, I have re-started yet again, and tonight did w2 d3, I am still run down, and managed to skip both Breakfast and lunch before my run, so I wasn't in the best place, and it felt very hard work, BUT I did 3.07 miles in 33 mins (which is 4.95 k - sooo close to the 5k mark!!), and in just the last couple of weeks my mile time has gone from 12.50, to 10.45.

I have asthma, and have always struggled to recover after exercise, and any serious cardio has made me really chesty for a couple of days afterwards, in the last couple of weeks that seems to have passed, I got very breathless in the last two runs tonight, and sounded like a walrus, but I recovered well afterwards, and no irritation to my chest at all now.

I am really surprised at how quickly I am feeling the difference, this is great, and I am determined to rock my first proper 5k by the time it arrives!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
