This will be a group for people who have started Turbo Fire this month or are planning on starting in March. We can all support and encourage each other since we will be at about the same point in the program. If you want to join, post a little about yourself and what you hope to get out of Turbo Fire. If you're really brave, post your before photo :laugh:
My name is Amber, I am 29 and mostly a SAHM to my 9 year old son. I do have a very part time job tutoring at risk kids in an after school program. I love it! I'm not new to weight struggles or losing weight, about 4 years ago I changed my lifestyle and lost about 30 lbs and I've been able to keep it off. Now, I'm really trying to get that bikini body for this Summer, I haven't worn a bikini since high school. I'm doing a little bit of a modified schedule for TF, I am still going to do Zumba on Tuesdays, and start out with a rest day every 3 days instead of 6. I really don't want to get hurt or burn out. I am hoping to start Monday, just waiting on my package from Ebay. I hope to finish the program on June 11!
Here's my stats
Age: 29
Height: 5'3"
Weight 115
Goal Weight 110 or so, not too worried about the scale
Can't wait to get started!

I love Turbo Kick, I do it two days a week at my gym. I just order Turbo Fire through the site for 6 easy pays of 20 bucks. I can't wait to start. I work outside the house, but have two young boys and can't always get to the gym so I thought this would be great to do at home.
Let me know how your workouts are going.
I am trying to lose about 20 lbs0 -
My TurboFire program, as well as my Shakeology shakes, will be here in 5 days! I will be starting right away!
I've lost 25 pounds so far (since Dec 28th) using various websites (Livestrong, Sparkpeople) until I found MFP about 7 weeks ago ago, and am now an MFP-er for life! LOVE IT! I have been going to the gym, lots of cardio including the Elliptical machine and Zumba classes, as well as some weight training.
My goal is to lost another 20-25 pounds by June. I am hoping that TurboFire will help me do that!
I'm so happy you started this thread! It will be great to share this journey with others!

I mention this because, for anyone who doesn't know, Beachbody is the company that puts out the TurboFire program. As well as P90X, TurboJam, Shakeology, and MANY others. Thanks....just thought I should add that for anyone who isn't familiar with the programs.0 -

Jessica- Is that you in your avatar pic? I never would have pegged you for 37, or to be the mom of a 19 yr old. You look Great!
For doing a second round of TF, do you just start all over from the beginning? Is it easier the second time around?0 -
Amberaz~~Yup that is me,I know I just turned 37 yesterday.Doing TF for the 2nd time around, yes I am starting from the begining. The only thing that I find easer is that I know the classes now by heart.I was struggling at the beginning of TF lol,now I got it.I am still DRIPPING sweat at the end of my classes,I am jumping a little higher and feeling more in control of my moves.Thank you for starting this page!!0

Hi i would love to join this group! My name is Tadessa, I have been married almost a year. I work full time for an auto body shop. I had gained a lot of weight when my husband and I were dating. I thought I could eat a whole pizza and not gain weight, I figured if he could I could. And then when my dad died I turned to food. But when we got engaged I half-heartedly decided to get in shape, I did lose 20 pounds. So now I am trying to lose the last 10 pounds. I started with Turbo Jam, just completed Chalean Extreme and just started Turbo Fire on Mon, as if you couldn't tell I am a Chalene Johnson fanatic. I am absoultely loving Turbo Fire right now.
Age: 25
Height: 5'4
Weight:130
Goal: 124 or just to have better abs0 -
Sorry guys I can't seem to get the pics smaller LOL0

My TF is finally shipping today, but it's coming all the way from PA so it probably won't be here until Monday or Tuesday. I am going to to some Cardio Boxing on Wii today. It's Golds Gym Cardio Workout and it's been really good for toning my arms and is a great cardio workout as well. I think tomorrow will be my day off, we have opening day for Little League and DS has his first game. Sunday we are going to be walking all day at the Renaissance Festival.
I am really going to try to cut back on my sugar intake. I stay within my calories, but I eat too much "treat" stuff. That will be my big goal for next week. I am practicing today LOL. The only sweet things I have eaten ar a banana, an apple and a sugar free popsicle.0 -
Hey, my name is Eboni and I'm a working mom. In the past I always started working out but then quit when I would just make excuses. In January, I decided that I was going to turn it around and stop using the old "it's just baby weight" and get my butt to working out and eating healthier. My husband is already in great shape so I wanted to get in shape myself and to show an example to my daughter. Here are my stats:
Height: 5'8
My Starting Weight: 192lbs
Current Weight: 175lbs
1st Goal Weight: 150 by May 25th (My B-Day)
2nd Goal Weight: 140 by August 1st.
I have been doing some P90X and Turbo Jam, but I started the Turbo Fire this week. Today is Fire 55 class for me!0 -
WELCOME EBONI! Nice to have you join.
I just did the Fire 55 EZ class. WOW! Nothing easy about that. But I felt great and made it all the way through. I can't wait til I have all the moves down, all in time I guess.0 -
Hi! My name is Serena. I am a homeschooling mom of four (they are 10, 8, 4 and 2.5 years old). Usually I am a runner, but we moved to Alaska last April and it's hard to run here in the Winter. I did a round of P90X from Sept to Dec and built a lot of muscle but then got burned out and felt like I needed more cardio. Winter here is a little hard and I slacked a in January and lost some of that muscle. I have been pretty much starving myself since my youngest was born, not on purpose though. I am a personal trainer and know what to do but still didn't eat enough to lose weight (sounds wierd right?) . I gained 4 pounds in about a week using MFP and following the caloric information...yesterday the scale went down a little bit...i hope it keeps going! It's hard to make myself eat all of those exercise calories!
Anyway, I started Turbofire about 2.5 weeks ago ( a friend is sending me insanity, I can't wait). I am not following the schedule though. I made up my own using P90X weights a couple of times per week. A friend came to visit and exercise today, we did 30 day shred and now I am going to do Fire 55EZ....not that it's easy though!
It sounds like some of you guys have the extra advanced DVDs too? I might get those later.
Can't wait to see everyones progress!!!!0 -
WELCOME Eboni and Serena so happy to have you both join this group!!0

Hi,hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend.Today was Fire 30,did it and feel great.Going to a B-day party today,I am going to 'Say NO to the cake"lol If I have time today I am goign to do HIIT 20.0
-
Good job...getting TF in early today Jessica! I'll have to wait till later. I have TUrbofire 30, Hiit 15 and P90X Shoulders and Arms. It's always hard for me to get it in on Saturdays though...different schedule, husband's home, etc.
I am feeling quite yucky...retaining a lot of water from too much salty stuff yesterday!
Have a great day!0 -
Hey everybody! Today's my day off from working out, having a little knee pain and don't want to push it the weekend before starting TF. Plenty of walking tomorrow, though. I'm only over my cals by about 100 after planning all of my food, that's good for a non workout day for me. I just cannot make it on 1200 calories per day. I made a smoothie for snack this afternoon and wanted to share the recipe, it was sooooo good.
Blueberry Pie in a Blender
1/2 cup cottage cheese (hate this stuff, cannot taste it in the finished product!)
1/2 cup strawberry kefir (you could just use yogurt)
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/3 cup frozen dark sweet cherries
1/4 cup fiber one original
about 2 tsps or so of Splenda
It's just like drinking Blueberry Pie
Calories: 275
Fat: 4.5
Protein: 22
Carbs: 50 (kinda high, but not really bad carbs)0 -
Did Fire 30 today burned 232 calories! Have to say I am absolutely loving the way I feel when I am done. My weigh in day is tomorrow, I was going to wait 2 weeks but I don't think I can wait that long.0

So this morning I weighed in and I lost 2.9 pounds!:happy: I am now down to 127.3! I lost almost 3 pounds in one week from Turbo Fire! Now I love it even more! LOL! So excited and so happy! Later today I will be doing Core 20 and Stretch 40. I think I am going to throw in Extreme Abs from Chalean Extreme to and maybe another Cardio workout, we'll see. I am feeling ambitious right now0
