    Really starting to get comfortable with level 1 now so feeling a little nervous about moving on to level 2! It will be worth it though! :) anyone else noticing any changes yet?

    I'm actually on Day 9, but yesterday I noticed the push ups were getting easier. I may try regular push ups today. I still struggle with the last strength move in circuit 3. My arms can't take it! I push through as best I can though. I alternate between 3lb and 5lb weights. My biceps can do more than my shoulders. What lb. weights does everyone else use?

    I use 5 lb weights and I can feel it for sure! I only finished Day 6 (Day 7 will be tonight) and I find the hardest ones for me to push through are the side lunges with the weights - I can do the first set, but when we get to the second, man, I can barely lift them! But I don't want to go any lower, because I know these are doing something because I feel "uncomfortable" as Jillian so eloquantly puts it! Kinda nervous to move on to Level 2 ... lol. Loving it though.

    I will be doing Day 7 tonight ... hoping by Saturday I will feel comfortable enough to move on to Level 2 on Sunday. I'm going to do it twice on Saturday to catch up to everyone. Someone that already did it told me that you really won't see a huge difference until Week 3 and I'm glad she told me that because I wanted instant gratification for all the sweating I've been doing...lol. I'm pushing through and refusing to give up!

    Level 1 Day 8 done. Im still under the weather but I pushed myself through it. It seems be getting easier those side lunges are killing me. I haven't noticed any difference except that I feel my endurance is a bit better. I am trying to concentrate on my form more now I want to make sure that I am doing the exercises right. I noticed that the first few days I was a little sluggish in my form. I am also trying to make sure that I am staying within the calories each day. Which over the weekend seems very difficult.

    Thanks again for all the motivation makes me feel I'm not alone.

    Done with Day 8! Almost done! Let's keep it up!! It's so much more motivating to do it in a group like this. I don't even contemplate on whether I'm going to do it...it's just a matter of when :wink: I like it! I like it a lot!

    Still shredding away!!!!! Helping some family members move to Michigan from New York these next couple of days! Woot, maybe that will help burn some extra calories!
  • I did level 2 today. It's a step up from level 1, but it's not too bad. There are a lot of plank moves, which I find to be hard since my upper arms aren't very strong, but it should have them much stronger soon.

    done with days 7 & 8 (skipped last night in hopes of getting a good night sleep) ... probably should have at least done a pm yoga workout, that probably would have helped. :grumble:
