Please help. I'm desperate to lose weight and get fitter. I'm 45 and a size 18. I really want to start running but I'm scared. I've never run before. I walk daily, but that's clearly not helping my weight as I haven't lost any, despite 10,000 daily steps. Can I actually do this? Has anyone else been in a similar position and successfully started running? Please send motivation and support. I've downloaded the couch to 5k app.....

Hi nothing really, if anything the running helped me lose weight which in turn meant my knees really improved Smile
