    I am! I have started this program a few times but each time let it go and put more time into running and cycling. This time I started on Tuesday and I am going to finish the program! I am replacing the cardio days with either running, cycling, elliptical, or swimming. :) I love it!

    I'm starting it again next week. This will be my 3rd time - however - I've not gotten through it once. I've always stalled out around workouts 9 and 10. I do a lot of running and due to training for 1/2 marathons have gotten to where it's difficult to keep up the high mileage at the end of the 1/2 marathon training and the increased difficulty of JMBR.

    This time I am DETERMINED to get through it depsite the fact that I am running a 1/2 marathon in 3 weeks and have another one on May 19th. I WILL do both!!!!

    I will be starting with WO 3 & 4 since I've already done the 1/2 series twice I feel OK skipping it.

    I would love to have some new friends who are beginning and/or in the WO 3/4 weeks. Please add me as a friend if you are :flowerforyou: It's so much more motivating to go through it with other people!

    Me Me Me!

    I am starting week 4 tomorrow and I love it! I am determined to see it through until the end and probably give it another round after with advanced moves/heavier weights.

    I am blogging after each workout about how I did and my stats and progress, please feel free to follow my journey at

    I'm just starting week 3. I've kept up with all the workouts, but my diet faltered a bit on Thurs/Fri of last week. I'm not following her menu plans exactly, but tracking on MFP and trying not to eat my exercise points or too many complex carbs or sugars.

    I've had to modify a bit because I teach a high energy Zumba class 3X a week that is mostly cardio and I like to run once a week, so I only really did the cardio DVD in the first week when I was doing 2 workouts a day. I might add it in when I want a bit extra, but I think I'm doing enough right now. Here's my schedule now:

    Tuesday - workout 3 in the a.m. before work, 1 hour Zumba class in the evening
    Wednesday - workout 4
    Thursday - 1 hour Zumba class (instead of cardio DVD)
    Friday - workout 3
    Saturday - 1 hour Zumba toning class
    Sunday - 1/2 hour - 45 minute run; workout 4
    Mondy - rest day

    I've kept at it! I'm halfway through Week 10, and I've got Cardio 3 to look forward to after work today. And I really am looking forward to it - Cardio 3 is definitely the most fun/interesting cardio circuit.

    Still working at it in Week 4. Not looking forward to Workout 5, I think I still hate that dvd the most. Not a big fan of super-sets.

    I'm still at it, too! I'll finish 5/6 this week and start 7/8 on Saturday. I got through Phase 1, then repeated 1/2 for a week and 3/4 for a week, so I'm technically 2 weeks behind (my husband started it at the same time and he'll be starting 9/10 on Saturday). It's tough, but I'm finally getting in the habit of just DOING it! Good luck to all of us!

    I'm into week 2, it's a little hit and miss - some days are 2x day workouts (Julian plus a run) with an unplanned rest day sandwiched in if my schedule gets hectic. Main thing is I'm getting it done and feeling stronger already. :)

    I am on week 9. We took a week off when we were at Disney World for Spring Break and then when we got home we re-did week 8 before moving on.

    It's very inspiring to see so many people on this thread who have been doing JMBR for so long. I'm only on my 5th day, but I'm in it for the long haul. It's perfect for me because I have a busy schedule, but I can't find any excuse not to do something as short as 30 minutes, Please friend me if you're looking for JMBR friends. I've got 20 pounds to shed.

    Funny enough, I haven't lost any weight. I'm at a bit of a plateau, unfortunately, but it's okay - I'm toning like whoa! My legs, arms, back, and core have never been stronger, and my boyfriend says that my butt looks amazing! I'm just going to keep working at it. I'm sure I'll start to lose again eventually. :)

    I don't post often but I am on MFP daily. I am finishing up week 8 on Saturday. Most days I add in walking or some time on the elliptical. It's challenging but I'm am beginning to see a difference in my clothes and the scale is moving down. 20 lbs so far.

    Hi, I just joined the group. I'm starting Week 3 tomorrow. The push ups and planks look hard as heck for workout 3. It's been good so far.
