Congratulations 😊

You’ve just completed the hardest session of all - overcoming the mental hurdle and getting out there 😊

The feeling gets better as you progress so be prepared to amaze yourself - I’m 58, 18 stone, and just starting Week 9 so it can be done LOL

Good luck and enjoy 😊

Well done. Having recently completed, it's great hearing the excitement of those just starting. It got slightly easier after week1! Takes me back 4 months, it's a great journey!
