    Can I.join? I am starting Monday. I did it where I ended at thanksgiving so this will be round two. Love it! I was modifying a lot the last phase so I hope to see improvement this time around.

    I am also doing couch 2 5k three mornings. I hope to add a second workout each day of taebo or elliptical or walking.
  • I am on Day 6 and enjoying the workouts so far. For my 2nd week I will up the weights to keep my self challenged and probably add light weights to the cardio too. Great so far, just hope I don't get bored anytime soon.

    I'm on week 7, and bored is not a word I would use. Challenged, pushed, exhausted, and sore, but definitely not bored!

    Just finished week 1, only 11 to go :tongue:! Loving it so far, I work up a good sweat but don't kill myself in the process. Can't wait to see what is coming next. But first we have to repeat this whole week again :ohwell:

    Hi folks! I hope it's not too late for me to join in with this group, but I also started JMBR on Monday 17th Feb, so would love to hang with you guys and get some motivation and hopefully give some back in return? It's the first time I've done this particular program, but have done lots of Jillian's other DVDs in the past, so have a rough idea of what to expect as the weeks go on (i.e. lots of huffing, puffing and sweating!).

    I'm doing JMBR in the mornings before work and I'm also doing the TurboFire schedule in the evenings when I get home from the office, so keeping busy at the moment!! :-)

    I have the BR, and have done it, once completely and once half-*kitten*. I'm going to dust it off and DO IT! I really hope to share the journey with you here, even though I won't be on the exact same day! Now all I gotta do is get UP early enough to DO it!

    Is anyone else using a Fitbit? How does it do with the BR?

    I got out the booklet and put stickers over all my previous entries (I dated each workout as I did it. Ready to start! Oh, I won't be doing the meal plan either- letting MFP guide me, along with my Fitbit! Anyone??

    Just did workout 2, Tuesday. WTG me! I actually DID it. Now...to keep it up. I had to enter it manually because Fitbit flat out ignored it! WHAAAAT?????

    Really wasn't in the mood for Cardio 1 this morning, but really pushed myself and burned more calories today than on the previous 2 times I did this workout, so I was pleased with that. Also just hit my first stone since losing weight this year, so only another 10lbs until I get to my target weight - yay!

    I'm on Week 7 but it definitely gets easier after you do the workouts a few times! Some are actually kinda enjoyable!! Keep at it and I hope you all get great results!

    How on earth did your fitbit manage that? I use one but I override the readings with those from my hrm so I must admit I haven't paid too much attention to its readings...

    MissBounceUK - congrats on getting so far already this year :)

    amzypritchard - thanks for the support, week 7 seems a very long way away right now!

    I am so annoyed right now. I am having the worst time reconciling calories in, out, exercise, what fitbit "sees" and what it doesnt. If I log BR on MFP I am sure it overestimates calories. Meanwhile back at the farm I have lost NO weight this week. I am ready to scream! But...I HAVE DONE THE BR every day!
