Haha yes I feel amazing! Really proud of myself. It's like something in my head has always told me I couldn't do it - and I've just proved it wrong! ;D Thank you so much!! :) x

Don't be anxious. It's a real feeling of accomplishment, and it gets better and better. I started the programme in February after 28 years of inactivity - if I can do it, so can you. Enjoy yourself and tell us how it went!
