    Yes the first week has 2 workouts per day. I am lucky enough to work from home, but this week I have to go in twice. That will mean getting up at 430 on those days. This could be a rough week, haha.

    After reading through all of the information, I will not be doing the jumpstart or Jillian's food plan because I believe in eating more than 1200 calories per day. I've done the 1200 calorie per day plan and was miserable and GAINED weight; my doctor has instructed me to never eat less than 1500. Some of the recipes look good, though, so I may try a few of them. I will also focus on cleaning my diet up a bit...it's gotten out of hand again in the past week.

    I watched the first three workouts and thankfully they don't look too bad. Cheers to a Monday start!

    I got home from work and my system was there! So I started last night with work out 1. It wasn't too bad. I think being a pro at the 30 day shred helped.

    day 2 is also done for me - although i have admit that i was running out of steam a little bit with some of the moves.
    The workouts are definitely going to get results.

    also just a note - i am not following the food plan either. I'd rather lose the weight by eating a way I know i'll be able to sustain rather than something I'll probably drop the second i'm done the program

    Anyone else afraid of Cardio day? I am!! I started last Thurs with JMBR but made Mon my official day so I was able to do cardio once already and boooooooy did I nearly pass out lol. A fat girl doing suicides? lol shoot me now, I only lasted 15-20 mins the first time, hopefully Ill be able to go all the way this time. I havent been sore like I was when I first started and the moves arent as hard.. which weirdly bums me out because I feel like if Im not hurting the next day then Im not doing it right. Maybe I need to attempt the more difficult moves. Anyway, I know today will bring the pain!

    Hi, I started on Monday and I'm enjoying this program. Never done any of her other CDs, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I'm not a morning person at all, so as soon as I get home from work, I change out and start working out. Every inch of my body hurts :happy:
    Good luck everyone. :flowerforyou:

    Now that I have done 1, 2, and cardio I like this workout! The only thing is she keeps saying this is the "easy part" so I'm kinda scared for what is to come!

    Y'all will do great with the next workouts to come! I was afraid too, but you will be amazed at how much your body will change over a few short weeks and how strong you get! Keep up the great work!

    I am on Workouts 5 & 6, and the first time through them, i wanted to die. But, just the second time doing them I can feel how much stronger I have gotten and it is so motivating! Hang in there :)

    Good to know that it will be OK :) I did take a peak into some of the other groups on here of people who started a month ago and it seems like they are still alive ;) lol

    So I have already done 2 months of BR a while back...I know what I am in for.

    Phase 1 I can do everything except running man...I made it through the 60 seconds twice but cannot seem to get that last one down. KILLS my knees. I also dislike chair squat/ lateral raises. They suck.

    "If you have a why you can tolerate any how" <3

    The yoga isn't too bad. Month 2 sucks. and then month 3 is insane. My plan is to make sure that I master 1 and 2 because I quite after month 2 in the summer because 3 was very difficult

    Count me in...I usually get about 28 days in...then because I'm getting up so early to do the workout (around 4am).... I just get exhausted and can't keep it up, by the time I work 12-13 hours...I'm just plain tired! So all the support that's out there, I'd appreciate!
