    Squats done. If my legs end up hurting tomorrow as much as the side of my ribs/chest does today, I am in trouble :)

    not at all! Mine are pretty sore :3

    Weigh in tomorrow! Don't feel frustrated if you do not see a difference at first or even if you go up a little. We are building up muscle and muscle burns more calories than fat.
