    I start week 4 of phase 1 tomorrow. I am a little nervous about what phase 2 will bring! I am adding extra cardio. I do zumba twice a week and just started kickbox fast fix. I love it! I love how its 3 20 min workouts. If I am short on time, I have no excuses, Ivan just do one. If I have more time I can do more.

    Guy I will be honest, I love Weeks 3 &4 but "HATE's" that I am only burning 324calories. However, during the exercise I am sweating like crazy and I do feel great afterwards. But for calories burn I am disappointed mind you I am 310Lbs.

    Ok, stared my last week of phase 1 this morning. I am loving workouts 3 and 4, so I know I am going to miss them when phase 2 starts. I have only been doing the cardiograph Dvd on the assigned days because I am doing longer versions in the evening (kickbixing, zumba, boost met, etc) do you all think that's a good thing?

    I think your added Cardio is a great thing. I do not enjoy Cardio 1 so it is really hard to make myself do it. I would rather go to Zumba, or go for a walk/jog with the dog. My feeling is as long as I am doing some sort of Cardio on those days I am going great.

    Keep it up!

    I was in my last day of Week 3 before I took a step back from the JMBR DVDs. I am hoping to start back up today. I think I will log it as if it was the start of week 3 again. I know workout 3 & 4 caused me some pain so I think I need the full two weeks building those muscles up before I move to Phase 2. Thoughts??

    I would start there and see how you feel. If you need more time to build back up, take it. If you are good to go, "push the up button." Lol

    WOW!! I did workout 3 for the first time today, and it killed me. Workout 3 wasn't too bad, but 4 was tough.

I'm really hoping that a week from now these will be easier! cause right now I have NO IDEA how i could ever make it to phase 2!

    Ok, I finished week 4 work out 4 today. Cardiograph tomorrow then I get to see what phase 2 is all about! Had a lot going on at work this week, so my diet could have been a lot better, but all I can do is keep moving forward!

    Did workout 3 yesterday! Part of it felt really hard and some parts didn't. I think I really need to master the moves before I can do them correctly. My balance sucks!! Here's hoping i don't phone it in for the next one.

    You don't HAVE to get sore! But if you're feeling left out, why not up your weights? You'll be part of the "In Crowd" in no time!

    This is Week 3 for me and I've done workout 3 & 4 and WOW are they a step UP!! MUCH more difficult (for me) and a couple I didn't do at all. I know I still got a killer workout.

    My calorie burn is up too~ I was only getting 115 to 150 cals (with 5 pd weights) with 1 and 2. I got 160 and 165 with 3 & 4 and am using 8s and 10s.

    So still hangin in there........

    I just started Phase 1, week 3 yesterday. I loved Workout 3!! And I can't wait to do Workout 4 tonight. I think I really enjoyed it because Workout 1 and 2 were a little too easy for me so I like the extra challenge. I've also been doing Cardio 1 several times a week as well just to get some extra calorie burn in there.

    ALso, I haven't been following her food plan as I thought I would, but have just been eating extra healthy: tons of veggies, lean meats, water, and protein (nuts, eggs, cheese, etc). I've only lost 2 pounds the past 2 weeks but I am also facing a metabolism issue with this medication I got off recently, so it will take a while :(

    In the meantime I'm just really enjoying Jillian, and getting healthy again.

    Oh, does anyone else have acrush on that big, dark-hair dude that is always in the back? I'm not usuaully into guys that big but he is cute LOL!!!!

    I'm starting week 3 tomorrow. I'm excited for a new challenge. I just read about Jillian's kick box DVD that came out in March; I might order that to have on hand when I want to do additional cardio. I'm loving this program so far...I've lost 12.5 lbs in the first 2 weeks. Anyone else starting week 3?
