So there is this person doing the 60 day challenge with me and I came to his blog, loved it because it is part of Google, so I signed up.
Now, to tell everyone what I have been doing in my 60 day challenge. I am on day 28 minus 2 days (have to pull a double some place) so really at 26.
Life has been ok. I went to the 4:30 class today and thought I was ready to pull of a great flexible class only to get stuck in half moon and could not move. The rest of the class was used to work through all the pain and pain and pain that I apparently had all over my body.
So for the 26 days, I have had the following problems:
back - upper and lower
feet - can't seem to wear shoes anymore - so I am in my running shoes with orthotics (gotta love google spell check)
hamstrings - I can't even straighten my knees out any more with out the pain shooting up the entire leg
and my face - why my face because of all the pain I have been in pushing myself with each posture.
Being at day 26 I know have to deal with the fact that I need help just going to the studio. Yesterday, I allowed everything to get in the way, now the reason for a double being required so I can complete the 60 day.
So, I have been wondering if I am addicted to the stuff, and today I will tell you "NO."
Monday I went to the 4:30 class, only to get an instructor who is just "Hard." Well he really pushed you through the camel to the point that I wasn't going to let him bet me. I actually was loving him up to that point, came out of camel hating him. At the end of class I told him my feelings, and he told me I had so stress worked up in my camel that needed to be released. Guess what, today, I almost passed out, started to cry, tossed up my lunch all because of camel. Was he RIGHT! Well apparently! I must assume it has to do with my family leaving with me the past few months and all the built up energy and the fact that the family moved out (Daddy in remission). I don't know. I just know it was the worst I have felt in camel in my life!
Also took a private class last Friday, turns out 75% of my moves are wrong and I am starting all over. HAHA
Once this is over, I will start to train for a marathon - so life should get back to normal!

From what I've read, the first 30 days or so beats the crap out of your body. Then that starts to improve, and the next thirty days beats you up emotionally. It sounds to me like you are right on course.
In some ways, its a matter of faith to keep going, but everything I've read says that it is more than worth it.
