    You can do it! It gets easier as your body gets used to these circuits! I have noticed that I may not be losing 20 lbs in 30 days but I am losing inches. It is great!

    I also got extremely sore after the first day. I would suggest more stretching than what they do on the DVD, which helped me a lot.

    Keep up the great workouts! You'll love the results.

    I was the same way. I had to have by husband carry our daughter down the stairs i was so sore! But I stuck with it. I just started level 3 today and it's still awesome!!! You will love the DVD, my abs have never looked so good!!!!

    Do your workout today and modify if you have to. Working out will actually help your sore muscles.

    Reward yourself afterwards with a nice soak in a hot bath!

    You can do it!

    oh god, after the adrenaline and excitement from finishing day 2 wore off, my thighs hurt so bad. like, 100 times worse than before! :sad: i don't know how i'm gonna make it through tomorrow. i might do some yoga and stretching tomorrow instead, hahah.

    i'm still pretty proud of myself :blushing:

    you should try again tomorrow, ponchita! i bet it will be easier!
