    Hi My name is Jenn and I just joined the group today...can't believe I missed the post on the 12th because I am a Turbo addict..lol. I have taken Turbokick classes and have Turbojam dvds. I recently ordered TurboFire and started in on November 7th. It is awesome!! I love it. I have lost 3 pounds since starting it on the 7th. I did the Inferno plan the first week and have been really keeping my calorie goal to 1200 -1800...depending on my exercise that day that balances it out, using the Food Diary on here to keep track. I started at 197.8 and I got down to 194.4 last week, which I hadn't been down to that since last spring. I had a fairly good weekend. I did an extra workout Saturday to try to make sure I didn't lose my progress and weighed 195.2 this morning. I normally do my TurboFire at 4:30am before I go to work. If I have time to throw an evening one in every 3-4 days I think that really helps. My favorite is TurboFire 45. It is so intense and I love the music. I was really surprised the first time I did that dvd at how much sweat I had dripping off me afterwards...I don't usually sweat that heavy to workouts.

    @JennBunny73, we are super glad you found us! We are all at different points in our Turbo journey, but the one thing we have in common is that we are Turboing our way throught the holidays and into the New Year. You are doing great! Keep up the good work! If you have any questions, I'm a Beachbody coach and will help in any way I can. In addition, all of our friends in this group are a wealth of knowledge of as well!

    Hello - my name is Rhenee' and I was excited to find this group yesterday. I had responded to someone else looking for someone to start Turbo Fire with but haven't heard back and I decided this was the way to go since it doesn't matter if you are doing Turbo Jam or Turbo Fire. I own Turbo Jam, Chalean Extreme and recently received Turbo Fire. I havent used the Turbo Jam in about 4 years and got Chalean Extreme so I could use the Turbo Hybrid schedule once I completed the Turbo Fire. I have tried a couple of the Turbo Fire workouts and really struggled keeping up the pace so what I have decided might be best for me (and that is why I like this group) is that I am going to do Turbo Jam for 30 days to get in a little better shape, expecially with stamina, and then start the Turbo Fire. After reading up on the group yesterday I got so excited that I created my workout calendar for Turbo Jam.

    I am 47 years old, 5'3" and have lost a total of 12 pounds so far and have another 30 to go. I haven't worked out on a regular basis for many years and am terribly out of shape. I didn't have a weight problem until I hit my mid 40's and steadily gained from 126 to 174. The 12 pounds that I have lost so far have taken me months and months to lose but it has been by calorie counting only. I don't just want to be "skinny" again, I want to be lean and I know that I need to be "pushing play" to make that happen. I read an article this past summer that was discussing swimsuit ettiquette and it said that 47 is the cut off for bikinis....I want to prove them wrong!!!:devil:

    I look forward to being part of this group.

    Welcome Angela and Rhenee' ...Turbojam, TurboFire, Turbokick....they are all awesome and by far my favorite way to work out. I just started TurboFire on November 7 and they are tough workouts, but I am determined to lose this weight once and for all.

    Thanks for the warm welcome, well today Turbo Scuplt done, shakeology Greenberry for lunch..salad for dinner. has anyone here herd of body bi vi? My beach body coach left beach body, she is sending me a free sample. I have researched it online, but can't seem to find a whole lot of information. I am going to give it a try, but I just love the way shakeology gives me energy... Would love to hear your thoughts good or bad about Body Bi Vi.

    Okay, been really talking myself out of it for awhile now but I'm gonna finally start. I tried watching one of the Fire workouts and am pretty sure I'll be flopping all over trying to keep up since I'm not familiar with the moves but, darn it, it's my living room and if I can't flop around there, where can I? :laugh:

    So starting tonight, D1W1 of TurboFire. Any advice?
  • I just found out that my husband won't be getting paid until January 15th (he's going to boot camp December 6th) so I won't have any money to buy TurboFire.. :( I wanted to get fit before he came back.. get rid of this post-baby weight.

    @CelineRuth - what about starting with TurboJam? It's quite a bit less expensive.

    It is less expensive and it does the job too! Go to Beachbody.com and look at the reviews and the before and after pictures. You would be amazed by them. I purchased Turbo Fire but it is tough. I dusted off my old Turbo Jam DVDs and are doing those now...at least for 30 days to get a little more prepared for the Turbo Fire.

    I have actually had very good luck purchasing Turbojam dvds from ebay cheap. The one that I like and in my opinion is close to TurboFire is TurboJam Punch, Kick and Jam.
