Is anyone following this program? I am currently at the end of Phase 2. It is difficult to do, but I just keep on doing it and my strength is getting better. I love Jillian's DVDs and have a bunch of them.

    Hi, I've been doing it, on Phase 2, did 7 today I think. I admit, I've been not doing it daily because I do other ones of hers also. I like Biggest Loser Last Chance Workout (she does many of the exercises there too) and 30DS and No More Trouble Zones.
    I think this set was very good for people who hadn't done her DVD's also because she starts off easier and is very encouraging.
    I need more cardio so I use her DVD but also do other things for variety. I like the group she exercises with and it is more "fun" than some others I've seen.
    I can't do very high impact, those high jumps, but I just modify.
    I wish you luck, every day, every accomplishment is a plus. As she says, "You don't know what you are capable of doing" She's right!

    I'm just finishing up week 3. I'm loving it. I'm doing my measurements tomorrow (I'm keeping track of them in the JMBR group). I just started doing them with ankle and glove weights and it's made such a difference in my burn. I can feel such a difference so quickly. It's been great!

    I completed phase one and two weeks of phase 2 before I had to travel last month. I lost 3 inches off my waist and almost 2 inches off my hips and I lost around 9 pounds of fat during phase 1 and the 2 weeks of phase 2 I completed. I did it as scheduled by Jillian (everyday), but I didn't do her cardio dvds, I don't like those, instead on cardio days I go to the gym and do HIIT for 30 to 40 mins. I also did the first week kick start that she suggests (I couldn't complete the whole 7 days, I felt weak. I did 5 days on that meal plan and lost 3.6 pounds that week). I started eating 1200 calories when I started her program. I am planning to start phase 2 from scratch again next week when my daughter goes back to school.
    This is a really good program. I highly recommend it. Feel free to add me for support or ideas exchange.

    3,5, 8 and 10 lb hand weights is what I use and a good mat for the floor work. I have been bad and have not done any this week. I need to get back at it. I do not have much weight to lose, so I am stuck at 137 pounds and want to be at 130. It is taking forever.
