Day 6-Does This Get Easier?

I have had an interesting schedule this week so I only had the opportunity to take Angela's class at noon which I knew would be fun but hard. My legs were complete noodles and my arms felt like they were made of lead after Joschi's class yesterday. So not only do I feel like a weakling, I am feeling fat because I still want sugar. I took Joschi's advice and I haven't had straight sugar but I really, really, really want some!!! Instead of eating a sugary muffin or a chocolate bar like I want to, I'll buy a sandwich or a cliff bar. Is that a better alternative? When do these cravings go away? Its driving me nuts! When does this muscle soreness go away? Am I even on the right track?? Help me!!

Hang in there. You are on the right track. Give yourself a break. Its only been 6 days, nothing happens overnight. It took you a while to get addicted to sugar, it will take you time to get it out of your system. About the soreness, it just sounds like you need a day off. It's not cheating, your body needs to work and then it needs to recover. You are doing great! We are all behind you, take it one day at a time and enjoy the journey. =-)

you can totally do this! as we all know, i'm a chocolate addict myself, but i haven't had chocolate since the new year either and am struggling with this just like you do :) don't overdo it with the classes, though and listen to your body! you deserve your 1 day of rest to recoup! remember that sign next to the studio door? "listen to your body when it whispers, so you'll never have to listen to it scream" i love that quote and it's so true!!! i admire you and everybody else who is doing the 40 day challenge, it's an empowering journey!!!
