    Day 3 week 3 done. My legs and arms are sore, haven't felt like this in a while...I can really feel it walking down stairs. I guess week 3 really starts to work the muscles even more plus maybe even some that weren't being worked before. :wink:

    Doverx, great job getting back in shape! You look great! Congrats to you :)

    Have a great Wednesday everyone!

    Day 4 week 3 done, still feeling it, easier to go down stairs. At least I don't feel like I was beat up today....LOL.

    I agree about those ab holds with your hands beside your butt, it feels like you're barely off the floor but like she says as long as you're feeling it in your abs you are doing it right.

    So far I haven't lost any lbs. this week, I'm hoping it's just water weight but I don't know, maybe I'm gaining more muscle? Or maybe I need to change up my daily calorie intake a little like zig-zag the calories?

    Have a great day everyone!

    I'm curious - what do you mean when you say zig zag your calories?

    Just finished W3/D4! This time i really focused on pushing my butt to the ceiling during the tabletop, leg raise, workout and I do feel i worked it a little deeper....my arms were really shaking by the end of strength circuit 3.....and my left cheek has been sore since D1/W3....which is making me wonder
    is my right cheek stronger or what????? LOL!

    Have a good one y'all!

    Just finished W3/D2. Much better today, did a lot more than I could yesterday- not perfect, but as Jillian says, "Perfect SUCKS!" :bigsmile:

    I've heard several people say on the posts here that if you change up your daily calorie intake, ex: 1200/1300/1200/1500/1200, etc. it is supposed to jump start your metabolism. I haven't tried it yet (too scared) but some people swear by it...

    I tried but it didn't seem to work for me but it didn't hurt either. There is a calculator online - just search zig zag if your interested.

    Thanks Kel, I think I might just try to have one higher calorie day per week. I don't know that having any more than that would help me too much either. :)

    Basically, if you keep the weekly calorie range the same you cant go wrong.

    W3D5 done...yay!!! I just about died today. HRM said (ripped in 30 followed by 15 min treadmill) 552 calories burned!

    Day 6 week 3 done. Funny story, at the end when I was doing my ab holds I was still panting hard from the cardio circuit while doing them and my dog came over to me to see if I was okay....lol. What a sweet boy! :)

    Well, it's Saturday, have a great day everyone! Moving on to week 4 on Monday morning (scared).....hahaha

    I have a cat that gets worried every time she senses my blood pressure raising such as when I am stressed or upset so she is always soooo concerned when I am working out to the point that she comes to nudge her head against me as if to tell me it's okay and to settle down...she is so sweet but I had to lock her out of the room while I'm working out because I'm afraid I'm going to step on her...
