Hey guys! So I have TurboFire and completed 4 weeks of it back in January, but fell off the wagon with my eating habits.. :/ I'm planning on starting again next week on Monday, March 5th! I figured I would just start Monday because it's easier for me to follow the schedule that's already made and it's a brand new week to leave all bad habits behind! If anyone is interested in joining me on this 12 week journey, let's go! :)

    I'll do it :) I'm getting my copy on Sunday I think so it'd be nice to have someone to follow along with.

    Great, Carriep1234! I figured a group would be nice so that everyone can be accountable for their workouts and compare results since we are all doing this at the same time :) So excited to start!!! Feel free to post whatever you'd like on this board! I love reading about new ideas, recipes, workouts, goals, motivations, etc.!

    Along with TurboFire I'll be doing Shakeology and totally turning around my eating...again. I did it once a couple of years ago and then got pregnant again and that changed everything. Now I have to start all over. Anyone else using Shakeology or eating whole food?

    Also, I'm starting with the 5-Day Inferno plan I think. From what I gather from the info in the box, that's supposed to be some sort of kickoff? Anyone else doing this?

    I would so try Shakeology if it wasn't so expensive! I'm working on my nutrition and incorporating more fruits and vegetables in so I am starting to plan out my meals for next week, week 1! My nutrition is always the downfall for me. We'll see how it goes. I would do the inferno but the diet plan is too strict for me to follow as I don't have any of the foods required around the house!

    So is anyone else in for starting TF tomorrow!? It's only a few hours awayyyy :)

    I am going to start tomorrow too...I have tried to do it a couple times in the past and have hurt my knee twice, so I am going to do it as long as my knee is okay. I won't be completing the full 12 weeks though because I am having a breast reduction on May 17th, so that gives me like 10 & 1/2 weeks.

    Welcome bjhadden! Glad to have another person joining in :) 10 1/2 weeks should still get you great results!

    I am finishing Insanity tomorrow (final fit test) and then starting TF next monday 12th (if we are back from a boat delivery, then it'll be tuesday)

    I can't wait. I've already done one of them.. IT'S SO FUN...

    I JUST STARTED TODAY! I am also trying to completely revamp my diet. Feel free to add me, I can use all the support I can get from myfitness pals and love to encourage others. I did my first turbo workout today, I enjoyed it, though it was difficult following some of the moves. How did you all do?

    I'm going to do my first day after I get my kids to bed (within an hour to an hour and a half). I was thinking of trying C25K at the same time as TF. I need to overhaul my diet too, like another poster said. Hopefully the next 12 weeks will bring some serious change! The number on the scale today is giving me a real guilt trip. I'm 30# heavier than I was 3 weeks after I had my daughter (who's 15 months now!). Anyone else doing before and after pictures?

    Got Turbo Fire last year and did it a little and then broke my leg about a year ago doing Roller Derby. Just started tonight and did the first workout..man it's like Turbo Jam on speed..gotta love it. So do we just keep writing here on this Topic to keep us as a group. I need some encouragement to keep going and Turbo buddies would be great!

    Can I join you guys? I was going to start yesterday too, but never happened. Now that I found you guys maybe I can start today, to help me stay motivated! I use Turbo Fire as a workout throughout the week but have never followed the plan. I may have to skip Thursdays since I have bootcamp at the gym every week.

    DAY 2-HIIT! How are you all logging your HIIT workouts? Trying to figure out waht to put in as calories burned but I don't have a heart monitor yet :/

    I started TurboFire yesterday too! Wow, it was intense but awesome. I'm am absolutely drained today though because I didn't eat enough yesterday to make up for the 600 calories I burned last night doing Fire 30 / Stretch 10. I don't know what to expect tonight from the HITT workout, I'll shoot for going over my calories a bit but not too much. Anyone who is starting TurboFire is welcome to add me - I need accountability!!

    It is always a great motivator to take before, during, and after pictures....it really helps you gauge were you were and where you are.

    I am right there with you on the guilt. I weigh more than I did pregnant with my 3rd child. I am hoping to do this the right way though and lose slowly and keep it off. I took before pics, but will only post them if I notice come change when I take my afters.

    I am not sure how to log it either. I logged it as kickboxing including turbojam for 15 minutes. I need to get a heart rate monitor too.

    Do you have a HRM? I didn't know how to log it so I logged it as kickboxing including turbojam and MFP said I burned 400 and something.

    Hi everyone! Let's start a free challenge group with all of you as members.

    I know that i have posted several times, but I would really like to have all of you in a Turbo Fire Challenge group. It sounds as though all of you want to start one and I would love to facilitate it.

    I am a beach body coach and you can sign up for a free account, the link is below. It is free and there is absolutely no obligation to buy anything.

    https://www.teambeachbody.com/signup/-/signup/free?referringRepId=140020

    Once you are a free member you can log all of your workouts and even create the workouts for the challenge group.

    I will create a Facebook page that all of you will have access to where we can post our goals and ideas, hints and tips for all of us and questions and concerns.

    Once a week we will weigh in and I have a ton of people in our community there for support, motivation and suggestions.

    If you are interested please let me know and I will get you in to the group and we can officially start once we get 10 or more members.

    This is free, just a great way to get everyone together and in a group.

    We give away monthly prizes and would welcome all of you to join.

    Let me know if you have questions.

    I would love to help all of you reach your dream weight.
