    Day 1 done but oh my goodness! This body is not jumping jack friendly!!! Wish I could say that I did it all the way without short breaks but I'd be so lying. And push ups...give me a break! lol :) Kudos to you all who did. I hope this does get easier, whew!

    How did you all calculate for your exercise? I put in 9min of strength, 6min of cardio (aerobic), and 3 min of situps.

    Finished day 3 of Level 1 - I can already feel an improvement from just two days ago, especially in my endurance in the cardio portions. I'm not sure I'll ever be good at push ups, but I figure whatever I do is better than zero! I'm definitely sore in my abs and quads, though!

    This was actually my 5th day (going to miss next week so figured I could still join for October). I must say, the improvement I see in only five days is phenomenal. I wish I would have tried this two years ago when I first started MFP. If so, I would probably be close to goal weight by now. I've been doing the elliptical runner mostly and I can see now where the strength training and ab work is going to make a huge difference. I would reach plateaus on the runner and give up for a few months. I can already feel the difference and I am only at level 1.

    But did I read correctly, people actually do this twice in one day? LOL

    Day 4 of Level 1 is done - I wasn't going to do it tonight because it was 10:30pm and I was tired and I didn't want to and MAN those four or five bites of lemon meringue pie that my mom had just made were SO good and I could definitely go for a slice or two or maybe three; but NO! I said to myself, clenched my teeth, and just did it. No pie, only sweat, and man, does it feel good. (: I can feel myself getting better at the push ups - minimal breaks, though I'm still only on the modified ones.

    Also measured myself last night, so here they are:

    Waist: 29.5"
    Hips: 36"
    Thigh: 21"
    Calf: 14"
    Upper Arm: 11"

    Oct 2nd, Day 1 yesterday.

    Breakfast: 3 egg whites, tom, onion, cheddar cheese (should have skipped but might as well get the last peices out of the house), wheat wrap, taco sauce
    Coffee
    Lunch: Nutrisystem wedding soup
    More coffee
    Dinner at the BF's rents house: 2 teryaki steak tips, corn on the cob (no butter), tomato wedges, cucumber spears, 1/4 cup pasta. Diet soda.
    I didn't count my water intake for the day but I imagine it wasn't enough.
    Worked out just before bed. 3# weights - which kill me on the move with the side lunge and raising my arms forward. Also pushups on knees.


    today i need to do my measurements/photos, I need to keep track of my water, figure out a healthy UBER CHEAP meal plan, and I'd like to do 30ds every AM and with ambitious days also do another dvd since I know I can do more cardio.

    Wow I woke up this morning and my arms are killing me. I was thinking of not using the weighs today because I'm so sore. What do you all think? What do you do when you're really sore from the day before?
