I'm Carolyn, and I have a solid 30 pounds to lose. I used to be active several days a week and fit, but over the past few years the things I was focused on (work, grad school, new business) caused me to be more sedentary, and the scale showed it. I'm ready to get back to my old figure, and think the Jillian Michaels app will be a big help. I like intense workouts that are varied and more strength-focused, but can get bored if it's the same thing every day. I started this group because I know there are others using the app, and I was surprised there was not already a group. Looking forward to chatting with all of you as we continue our workouts!

    Hi Carolyn, I'm Lesley and based in the UK. I've got about the same amount I'd like to lose. I find the workouts hard but rewarding once they're done!

    Hello, I'm Alisha. I started using the Transformation 90 ten days ago to lose about 30-40 lbs within the next several months. So far I'm enjoying it, I've lost 4-5 lbs since I started. I don't stick to the meal plan but use it as a guide to plan my meals. It's great to see this group here!

    Hi, I'm Karen. Was using the free daily circuits on the app and finally subscribed. Just started the Slim 60 program! I work at a desk all day, and I am hoping this will help with losing the extra weight while giving me more energy.

    Hello, I'm Jen. I've been using the app for a few weeks now and I'm totally hooked! Been on MFP for several years (lost a little over 30 lbs my first year), but most of that time I've been inactive. I'm ready to get back into it and lose that last 10-15 lbs I know I need to. I've always love JM workouts, but this app far surpasses anything of hers I've done. I had to start with the beginner workout because I was so out of shape, but now I'm ready for Slim 60!

    Hello everyone!
    I’m Amy. While I’ve had the app for a few years now, I’ve only used it a few times when traveling for work. I’ve been a Jillian Michaels Workout Junkie for 4 years or so. After our basement flooded this summer (my dedicated workout space) I’ve been very inconsistent with my workouts. I have about 45 pounds to lose, but trying to take it in 10 pound increments.
