    Did day 3, level 1 this morning after my 30 minute run. Not as bad as the 1st day when I did my 30 min run. I didn't feel like jello.

    I don't know if it's because it's getting easier, or if I actually let myself cool-down a bit after running.

    I just finished up day 3 and it seems to be getting a little easier. I only had to take one short breather during the 2nd set of push-ups. Oh, how I hate push-ups :) !!

    I hate push ups too, today was day 6 and the worst so far. I really want to take a rest day tomorrow, but i know I shouldn't.
    When are you all planning to go to level 2? do you know they have walk out push ups... scaaary!

    I did day 4 yesterday and felt like hell afterwards. I struggled through the routine (I wasn't doing so bad day 2 or 3) and I hurt and ached and my joints were grumpy afterwards. Little did I know... I was getting sick. I woke up this morning with a full blown sinus infection. Yay... Day 5 is going to be FUN tonight.

    push ups is what I hate the most.. im at day 3 and its some what better,
    I was told to you do 10 days with level 1 10 for level 2 and 10 for level 3.. Im not quite sure though.
    You can do it!

    Jillian says to do Level 1 until you feel ready to move on or have mastered it; I think most people try to do 10 days on each level b/c of the 30 days, but I think it makes sense to listen to your body and see if it feels ready to move on - you can always go back a level if it feels like too big of a jump, I'm sure!

    Completed day 5 today, and I didn't have to modify the pushups!!!!! YAY!!! I am using 8lb weights and my arms are pretty sore, but I can tell that I am getting stronger.. Not sure if it's the 30DS or the C25k... Prob both.. 30 days straight is going to be rough!!

    ooops, having a rest day today... wine as a meal replacement is not the best idea - silly me.
    I had saved up my calories for the eve to have a burger and couple of glasses of wine. the pub's kitchen was closed, so i had a bit more wine - not a wise idea, on such little food all day.
    Back to being good tomorrow, day 8!
    Oh no that means Level 2 on monday!!!

    Keep it up everyone!

    Did Day 5 yesterday. I wasn't as bad as Day 4 but it still wasn't easy. I think I probably will move on after 10 days, but I will likely be doing modified movements the whole time. I am doing full buttkicks and almost full jump rope now and I am able to do more modified push-ups... but no chance there for unmodified. I think I will do unmodified sit up/ ab stuff tonight.

    25 days to go!

    Last night was Day 4 for me. It definitely felt easier and I was less sore, but I also toned down my cardio earlier in the day to rest my sore hips. I did more of the cardio this time (fresher since I didn't work out as hard earlier) but still not the jacks - just not feeling them at this stage. Did replacement cardio and all the other cardio segments, but my calorie burn per session has gone steadily down with each workout even with increasing the cardio - must mean I'm getting more fit, eh? Haha.

    Good luck to the rest of you! Let's keep our dates with Jillian this month and see what she can do for us!

    Day 4 complete! The shoulder raise and side lunges are the worst for me! I do the girly push ups, which I dont find too bad, but I cant do the proper ones yet! Hoping that I will be able to once this is all over :)
