I have had a break for a couple days (or possibly 5 if you count accurately )

But I did do it again this morning. :A

Did level 2, and managed to follow all the reps! Yayyy Have also been for a long walk and done a double zumba class today - think I will be aching tomorrow!

Morning life in termoil
The DVD we are doing is Jillian Michaels - 30 Day Shred and is currently £5.93 on amazon. Oh and my goodness does it work!!

I have done level 1 4 times - but I've really been struggling to fit it in so have only really done it once a week (with 2 exercise classes between).

Anyway - trying to focus now! 9 weeks to the wedding and I need to get my bingo wings in shape! They're really the only thing that I want to change. I had a huge downer when trying on dresses because they're so exposed - I felt that everything would look so much better if my arms were a few inches smaller. So that is my aim, and hopefully seeing improvements will spur me on.

So I did level 2 this morning (as I could follow Natalie and do all reps on level 1). Wowsers it hurt! I think it's partly because I'm just not used to doing those kind of exercises. Everyone has done star jumps before, but these movements make my head spin just thinking about them! Hopefully my balance will improve! I was also making real panting and groaning noises during the V lift exercises! Normally suffer in silence!

Will I get up tomorrow morning though...that is the question!

And is it *really* cheating if I do level 1 tommorrow? Slap my wrist now - already looking for an excuse!

Oh - and I've bought the zumba wii game as looks fun - will let you know what I think when it arrives!

neenaww

I have lapsed a little due to work etc, but I am back on it as from tonight! I am NOT losing weight (and am eating loads less and calorie counting <very frustrationg that I am trying so hard and getting no where!!>) I am however losing inches, I dont have a tape measure but I can tell from my clothes and have got easily into a dress size that I have been struggling to for a while!
SO onwards and upwards!!!!
(Sticking with level one for now though... thought of level 2 scares the **** out of me!)

neenaww

PS I have got the zumba for the wii fit.. it is good tho not always easy to follow! IMHO

OMFG!!!!

Please mind the pools of sweat in case you slip on the them on the way in.

Talk about hard work... I'm out of breath... I'm sweating buckets and I feel a tad sick, still I have completed the first one!

Now time for a bit of Wii fit... Aka Snowball fighting... Lol... Or maybe just Mario Kart... I'm knackered!

H2B'll be wondering what on earth I've been doing when he comes home!
