Sarah this is awesome and I'm watching for the real runners comments on breathing for myself!! I've found that I breathe through my nose and keep deep and slow breathing to keep myslef going. I nkow just what you mean. I use to set a goal of this tree to that tree to run and could only do half of this small path, last weekend I found out I can run the whole thing and I won't collapse or die after. It's an amazing feeling!! I can't wait to have even more confidence like you do!! It's truly worthy when putting in the work!! LOL about muscle I can't believe the muscle that all the sudden just shows up!!! You are such an inspiration, keep going!!! :-) :-)

I love this entry! Congrats to you girl! If you can find a love for running, it's like no other cardio out there. Keep it up and the breathing will get easier. Like Orchiannie said, through the nose. Nasal passages are smaller than your wind pipe. Lessening the O2 flow to your heart making it slow down. I tell my clients when they are recovering they need to take as long of an inhale through their nose as possible. Your body will tell you when you need to exhale. It's difficult but practicing this will teach your body to recover quicker, increasing your endurance and stamina. Even when your running, inhale through the nose exhale through the mouth. And try to make it rhythmic. Don't be a mouth breather ;) I'm proud of you girl. Maybe training for a 5K is in your future? Keep it up!

Great work!! I agree with Cort - I try to use my foot strikes to time my breathing if I'm having trouble (like in for 3 steps, out for 3 steps) and adjust from there.. I also sometimes don't exhale enough and have too shallow of breathing, which leads me to sideaches. And don't discount the importance of practice! The more you get out there and run, the easier the breathing will be!! Keep it up! :)

I had that SAME PROBLEM when I would try running pre-tummy tuck. Tummy tuck enabled me to run 2 half marathons. That was worth it.

I used to wear 3 sports bras- spanx and running pants before my surgeries... i TOTTALLY feel your pain my friend! I had a breast reduction and tummy tuck a year ago... AMAZING I can run w only one bra and regular shorts or pants like any regular person. SO worth it. Ive signed up for a half marathon in October!
