    I'm starting it in 2 weeks! I would start it sooner, but I'm going to my parents Monday-Friday next week so I can't start it until after I get home.
    I tried doing it a year ago, and I only did it one day and could hardly walk up and down the stairs. To sit on the couch, I had to literally, just fall backwards.

    I have a bunch of her DVDs (30DS, BFBM, NMTZ, CK, and YM) and love them (except the yoga, but I just don't like yoga in general, hers is my fave that I've tried though). I like to mix them up and rotate through them (not let my body get too used to any 1 dvd). I hate her and love her at the same time lol!

    LOL I have a love hate relationship with Jillian Michaels I do her workouts at least twice a week... I love the results she gives me but during the workouts I am cursing at her :-)

    I just got done doing the Trouble Zones workout... That one really kicks your *kitten* into gear :-) I feel it for 2-3 days after, but I have come to love that achy feeling from working out.. cause i know my body is changing and getting ripped!

    My advice hang in there and modify when necessary and sometimes just get crazy and suffer through the pain. as Jillian says... "get comfortable with being uncomfortable"....its no joke when she says you will notice a big change in your endurance once you are on day 5,6or 7 hehehe (30 day shred is what got me hooked)

    Stick with it and you'll do great. make sure to get some protein before and after your workouts... it really helps me to push through! Odwalla Vanilla Monster Protein drinks are super good and only 290 calories... I drink about 1/4 of it 15min before my workout and the rest after :-)

    Friend me :-)

    I do No More Trouble Zones. After the first day I walked like the Tin Man for 2-3 days. I was a hurting unit. On day 4 I jumped right back in. I do it on a regular basis 3-4 times a week. I noticed dramatic results very quickly! I went down 2 pant sizes. I never thought I'd see this size again. I had 3 children in 7 years and gained 37-50 #'s for each of them. I'm only 5'2 and trust me I did not wear this weight well. I stopped with the excuses and I have reached my goal. I feel healthy and strong and Jillian is awesome!

    I must say that on opposite days I do Turbo Jam. This is a great cardio workout.

    I did just buy Jillains Banish Fat Boost Metabolism and this is a kick butt workout too. I can't do that as often b/c I work out at 5am and there is alot of jumping in this workout and I don't want to wake the kids!

    I can't just give these workouts all the credit though. If it weren't for MFP and my friends on MFP motivating me, pushing me and keeping me honest I may not be where I am today with my weight loss success.

    Good luck on your journey... drink lots of water and do some extra stretching you'll work through the pain and then you'll be so proud of yourself and your loved ones will be too. including your peeps on MFP

    I hear ya! I've done 30 day shred (with excellent results)! I remember the first few days I could barely walk as well. Just push through it and you'll do fine. Drink lots and lots and lots of water. Someone told me to do that and it will help with the muscle soreness. I'm currently rotating between 6 week six-pack, and no more trouble zones. Both are excellent. I also have the banish fat boost metabolism, that one is brutal. I'm waiting a while before I try it again. Jillian and I have a love hate relationship, as I'm sure we all do. But the results are amazing! I'll send a friend request and we can kick her *kitten* together. lol

    I have all of her dvds. I joined her online site and was a member for 3 months. My account just expired 2 days ago. I was doing her online workouts mostly and the dvds. Each day I would print off the workouts. There are 4 a week. I have so many workouts printed now plus her dvds that i didn't rejoin for $$ reasons. I lost 12 lbs with her workouts and I have 10 more to go. She is STILL kicking my butt!! I workout with her 6 days a week. Her yoga is awesome too, you should all try it. The thing I love is you keep building. When something gets easy, just through in some heavier weights. Today I did her No More Trouble Zones and it was so much easier for me than it was 2 months ago when I first did it. I can see the next time I do it that I will have to add some heavier weights. You progress so quickly that it amazes me. I normally only did cardio everyday but then I found out about circuit training and it really rocks. Good stuff.
