    PS Im in Ireland, so obviously times are different, its 21.30pm here, so anyone thinking of starting today its absolutely brilliant!! I found the pushups hard though, and I would have thought my arms were the strongest part of my body....apparently not!!

    Day one done! Hope we can all walk tomorrow! :laugh:
    If any of you have a monitor, let me know how many calories you burn on a level! Jillian Michaels isn't in the database!

    Thanks!

    I wore my HRM - burned right at 200 calories.

    I stopped a few days ago, decided I wasn't into it.

    But I might start it again just to supplement my workouts.

    I miss those 1.000 calorie burn days.

    Just in case I dont make it out of bed today. I did day one of 30ds . I did learn a few things. First I will be buying a new sport bra ( for womens eyes only: jumping jacks I thought i was in danger of beating myself to death) Second I am an older woman and feel even older now that I got though the first 20 minutes. Not sure I should count the whole 20 minutes, it did take me longer to get off the floor then it did the 3 girls. But I was mighty proud of myself i did get off the floor with out help LOL. ok maybe that wasnt funny. But I bet getting out of bed tomorrow isnt going to be funny either. I will marvel over muscles i didnt even know i had, and will be thanking jillian for the fun fill evening we spend tonight.

    I (and a lot of others I've seen on the forums) use 3lb weights, unless you're used to a lot of strength training, then 5lb may be more suiting.

    I'd say if you're sore, than you're doing it right. That is one place that really doesn't get worked out much. Goodbye back fat! :wink:

    I just finished day 2 too. O.M.G. It was tough! I barely made it through the first circuit, which is the hardest in my opinion. My inner thighs are the most sore today. For all those people that think they are too sore to do it today, I encourage you to stick with it. By the end of it you'll feel much better. Plus I feel so goooood, like I could totally kick someone's *kitten*. ha!

    On a side note, I'm supposed to go on a 8 mile bike ride tonight...I'm praying for rain. :laugh:

    Great work everyone!

    Ps. According to my HRM, I burned 203 calories.

    I've gotta ask. Is anyone else noticing their weight raising in the first few days? I'm on day 4 and my food intake has remained the same at 5 small meals/snacks and 1 bit larger for dinner - 1200-1300 calories high lean protein, low sodium, low carb and I've managed to gain 4 pounds (4 FREAKING POUNDS!) since my start. Could this possibly be muscle? My pants are getting looser every day and I feel great. All the soreness I had from the first 3 days has become a good feeling dull throb just reminding me that I really pushed it this morning. I was really wondering if I was going to be able to lift those weights again yesterday....But, I gotta tell you, that scale is going to get chucked out the window!

    I think it's quite common to not lose weight or even put it on as you're building up muscle which weighs more than fat but apparently muscle also burns more calories than fat does so the more you build the more calories you burn!! Yay!!!!

    I am going to do day 2 just as soon as my dinner has gone down! My daughters boyfriend has lent me some weights which is great cos I was using 2 jars of peppers yesterday!

    Glad everyone isn't hurting too much. I don't feel it much today but I think tomorrow might be a different story!

    Keep it up everyone :happy:
