I am going to wedge myself into my pre-pregnancy exercise gear as the only ones watching will be the dogs and the cats. And it'll be even more motivation (I hope)!

download it on vuze. I tried that one and it said I couldn't access it, even with my 'alternative network' in place :(. Exercise TV has worked and it's ready and waiting for me to get my bum off the sofa! Good to konw, I will ask my DH to download it from Excercise TV tonite while I go out to get some sports gear- trainers, weights and some clothes. So I will be starting tomorow. Can picture it already- me, miss piggy-stuffed in lycra tight leggings and top jumping up and down infront of telly.priceless :)

Hi ladies, I recently had a baby and I want to get back in shape. This workout seems to be what I need. Can you please tell me where can I get this DVD from? Is it avaliable in shops in Dubai? Or can I download it from the internet? Any info would be great. Thanks.

Months after buying the DVD and hiding it in the cupboard under the TV, I did Day 1 of Level 1 yesterday. I was mightly pleased with myself even if it was at 11pm. I did 3 days of bootcamp last week also and some running/walking on Friday too. If I can do the same every week I will be a happy bunny. Going to keep doing the DVD side by side the boot camp and the running/walking. As I had my aches and pains from Boot camp last week, Im too bad today but its still early in the day. Heres to another 29 days....

I didn't do it on Friday or Saturday :\: and now I'm getting a cold, hopefully I beat the cold off and can start up again tomorrow. After a week of doing it, and following a diet I have lost nothing tho :( Yes because you're developping muscles and they ar much heavier than fat (but much more compact too, you will see the difference with the way your clothes fit. Here you can see the difference on this picture: http://potentialization.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/fatmuscle.jpg

Just did day 5 level 1, missed yesterday because we went to Hatta with our guests, I really had to kick my butt to get me going this morning but now I'm glad I did. I kept thinking: Cyclone T replied : Find reasons why you can instead of excuses why you can't. Find reasons why you will instead of excuses why you won't. It's such a good motivator. I haven't seen much difference on the scale yet, but I my jeans fit a bit better, but it's hard to watch what you eat when you have to cook for guests.

Thanks..I think it's a temp strain cos it doesn't hurt when I'm not using it, just feels a bit sore and weak. Inshallah it'll be okay the the morning! :) Or maybe it will be okay when it has less weight to carry haha..

Day 6 for me...almost didn't do it as didn't have time in the morning and went ice skating in the afternoon where I spent the whole time making sure my 3 year old nephew was upright. Somehow managed to force myself to do it now... and I think I may have injured myself. My right ankle feels really sore, and it's not the muscle, feels like the bone. It's usually the butt kicks that do it. Anyone else experienced that? I have ached a lot but no pain as such. I am not a nurse or doctor but if it is very painful (more than a temporary strain) you should see a health professional. I hope it is better in the morning.
