Hi friends!
Well I just did my workout around 7:15 tonight. I have to admit, it is getting a little bit easier. Some of the exercises are still brutal- like the anterior lunges with arm raises just kills me. I am using 5 pound weights, which is more than what Jillian is using, but it's all I have, so I figured I'd deal with it.
About halfway through the workout, I feel like I want to quit. Every time! But after I push through that feeling, I get such a feeling of accomplishment. You know, I realize I don't have that feeling of accomplishment very often. I tend to be a bit self-critical. I hope this workout helps me to savor and enjoy the little successes along the way.
I hope you can learn to celebrate your accomplishments too, however small you think they may be. Big successes are only made possible by the little victories along the way. We're not there yet- but we are on our way!
Hugs!
Tracey

Way to go Tracey! My friend at work told me that you are shredding too. It's lasted way longer than 30 days for me...I've been doing these workouts since March. Level 3 is still quite a challenge but at least I don't cry anymore. I thought I was in shape before I started, but this has really given definition -- especially in my arms and abs. I am 46 and when 20 somethings at work started asking me what I was doing for my arms, it motivated me even more. Now quite a few women at work are shredding too. Keep it up. I look forward to hearing about your progress!!
