I am finishing my second week of JMBR and already am tired of the recipes. I was wondering what others have done. Please forgive me if this is a topic that has been discussed previously. I am new to the group. Here is my question...

If I eat clean, follow her food list, stay within calories, will I be successful? I have a close friend that is just finishing and she doesn't think I will have the same success if I don't follow Jillian's recipes.

Thoughts???

    I am just finishing up Week 13 and I never opened Jillian's nutrition guide. I just used the MFP diary to track my calories and I have lost over 20 pounds. It can be done without following her plan.

    I just watch my calories and macros what is right for me.

    I completed the whole program some months ago. I didn't follow the meal plan and my body composition changed a lot (less fat and more muscle), but I didn't lose a lot of weight.
    I think it's more about the macros. I was below the calories allowed but I ate a lot of fat and carbs.

    This time I'm following the meal plan... mostly.
