I started yesterday, It nearly killed me last night. I didnt realize how weak my arms are. Anyways, Ive written down my stats in my notebook, Ill be updating as I go and in the end Ill reveal inches/weight lost. I found that doing a protein shake after the workout (within 30 min) reallllly helps with soreness. I was really working last night and im not sore at all. Oh and Im gonna try to eat better. Lord knows my diet can be horrible at times. I really wanna lose 10 this month and 10 next month...we shall see.

Level 1 day 6 for me today. I'm still struggling with some of the exercises, but others I don't feel like I'm benefiting from much. Level 2 I think will fix this problem, but I'm also hesitant to move up! 4 more days.

Level one day 1 for me, going to feel it tomorrow. I'm SO out of shape.
I feel the same as Bexiblueberry - some of the exercises kick my butt, but some I feel like I might either be doing wrong or arnt hard enough because Im not getting anything from them.

Brief rant: I so want to do my day 4 NOW, am totally ready, got my kit on... but downstairs neighbour is still at home and with the wooden floors we have in our flats, the entire room shakes when I do the cardio bits... so waiting for her to leave. How annoying!!! :explode:

I'm still at the very beginning of the program, so I don't want to annoy her just yet that I'm put in a position where I cannot complete it. Arghhhh!

I'm in.. on D4 today. Feel free to add me

To the person who complained about their neighbours.. get some connect-a-mats. We have the same issue in our home as there are students who live downstairs. The mats definitely help to cut out the creeking and impact sounds.

So I did day 2 yesterday and I am really feeling it. Today is L1D3. I do mine at night for now. Its too loud to do in the morning when people are sleeping what with my whimpering and grunting. For the fellow ladies with noodle arms, what weights are you using. Im using 8lbs and its almost impossible to get through all of the arm stuff...

I started out with 2lb weights, and some of the lifting still burns. Im a jello arm girl. Haha.

I want to do day 2 today.. but my dad has the TV. And who knows how long that will last.

8lbs??? :noway: I use 3.3lbs (1.5kg) for all except the side lunges for which I use 2.2lbs (1kg)... and even that is a bloody killer! You may now want to re-think your concept of noodle arms :laugh:

The worst are the push-ups... I cannot last through the full... what is it? 30 seconds?? And I'm doing the girly version. I have no upper body strength :embarassed:

L1D7 for me! Felt really good and empowered through today's workout, pushed myself a bit harder and I want to feel the ache now, and I didn't hate Jillian during the workout this time. Progress I think? :happy:
