I had started exercising about a week before I started Phase 1. I made it 6 days the first time, cheated for a long weekend and then started up again. Tomorrow will start phase 2 for me. (*jumps for joy*)
Let me tell you, I was NOT exercising before this, so I started with simple weight lifting. We had two three pound weights hanging around the house. I started with 10 curls. That was it. Then I added more (arms out to the side, arms in front, lifting above my head). As I started my current phase 1, I added pelvic tilts and simple leg lifts. Just a few days ago I started incorporating crunches (ugh! Boy do you feel those!).
I'm in the process of figuring out what I'll add for cardio. I have a Wii Jillian Michael "game." (I don't know if "game" is really the right word for it. lol) I really didn't like it, but I'll try again soon. I could join a gym or walk on the bike trail down the road. I'm living with my parents and we really have no room for an exercise machine. We do have a glider sort of thing, but it's in the basement. It's too dusty, so I only go down there for laundry. We'll see...
