Hello everyone!!!

I have most of Jillian Michaels' workout dvd's and when I did stick to one for a few days, I started seeing results. Of course, I need to stick with them for longer periods of time, in order to get the best results.

But I was wondering about the success stories of others!!! I like her and think I'll have success, once I actually follow through with it...And hearing some of the success stories might help motivate me and others:happy:

It can be ANY of her dvd's, 6 Week 6 Pack, Body Revolution, 30 Day Shred, Ripped in 30, No More Trouble Zones, Extreme Shed and Shred, Banish Fat Boost Metabolism, Killer Buns and Thighs, Yoga Meltdown, Shred It With Weights, Kickbox FastFix...

Tell me about your Jillian Michaels success:flowerforyou:

    I really liked her 30 day shred and lost a bit of lbs and inches. I think the extreme shed and shred is better and I really felt my abs defined more with this one. I also did the ripped in 30 but I got a bit slack at this point and missed a few days and never got any additional results but overall I felt it was a great workout program.

    I am starting her 30 day slim down either tomorrow or monday. It is a combination of 30 day shred, burn fat boost metabolism and trouble zones. I am hoping for even more results.

    I've done 30 DS and I'm halfway through Ripped In 30. The first few days are always tough, but if you can get through to the second week you are pretty much on your way. You just have to be committed. Taking before pics can help. Don't feel you need to complete it in 30 days straight...take a day or two off and recommit to getting it done!!

    I've been working with her on and off for a few years. When I started originally with 30 day shred I lost 15 lbs in a month. I kept that off until I stopped working. I am currently starting back, will be a week Wednesday. i have already lost 2 lbs and an inch off my waist! I love you. but you really have to do it consistently. If you don't, you will slack off. I have to make myself do it, but the more you do it, the easier it gets.

    I ordered No More Trouble Zones & Shred It w Weights recently bc I wanted to incorporate more w weights in my workouts. I also ordered Kickbox FastFix bc I have a Wii exercise game that has kickboxing in it and I Love it. It is starting to be not as challenging so I thought I would look into this. I'm not sure which one I will start with.

    Which one or more are your favs?

    Just get at it!

    All my workouts have been Jillian Michaelas, no other DVD's!

    Results: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/572262-300-consecutive-days-of-mfp-w-pics-almost-60-pounds-lost

    I've used 30DS, Ripped in 30, a little 6 week 6pack, and Extreme Shed and Shred.

    I LOVE Jillian! I don't have any pics, but have lost 13 pounds and five inches off of my waist doing exclusively Jillian workouts. I've gone through 30 day shred and am on week four of RI30. After I finish RI30 I'll start back on 30DS for a second go round. I do these workouts during the week when I don't have as much time, and then on the weekends I do BFBM and NMTZ. I recently bought 6W6P and Killer Buns & Thighs and love these too! It's hard finding time to work all of these great workouts into the rotation. I want to buy Yoga Meltdown and Extreme Shed & Shred eventually.

    I have never seen as much definition in my arms and legs as I have since I've been doing Jillian's workouts - I still have quite a few pounds to go till I hit my goal weight but am confident I will get there with Jillian's help! You just have to stick with it! :happy:

    I also love seeing/hearing about success stories with Jillian - keep 'em coming!

    I LOVE her and HATE her at the same time!! I Have 6 Week 6 Pack, 30 Day Shred, Ripped in 30, No More Trouble Zones, Extreme Shed and Shred, Banish Fat Boost Metabolism and Shred It With Weights. I plan on getting Body Revolution,Killer Buns and Thighs and Kickbox FastFix and mix it up. I had great results a few years ago but got lazy and gained back 10 of the 20lbs i lost so im back to it now.I want to get down to 122 before i get married next April!! :love:

    I started in February 2011 with mostly exercise bike. Around May, I started adding in Jillian DVDs. Then maybe starting around July I had switched to mostly Jillian DVDs I love No More Trouble Zones and Ripped in 30. And I love the Body Revolution workouts too, but I don't think it's necessary to spend the money on that. I've never done them as the scheduled "program" but I've probably done NMTZ 100 times and RI30 60 times. (I usually just do the first 5 circuits of NMTZ though). and about 50 days of Body Revolution workouts. I've probably done 30 day shred 30 times too.

    Jillian has definitely been my main form of exercise from maybe July of last year until now. Also some walking, a little rollerblading, some exercise bike, and a couple of other workouts here and there. Now my hip and pelvis are paining me so I've switching to swimming and elliptical until things get back in order. Then I want to finish up with Phase 3 of Body Revolution. Right now lunges and squats kill my hip/pelvis. booo

    Honestly, I think there are loads of good workouts out there that will give great results as long as you put in the effort. but I do like Jillian's! :)

    My progress so far

    I've done 30 Day Shred twice through and Ripped in 30 once. I've also just started Killer Buns & Thighs (the most difficult for me) and 6 Week 6 Pack. I LOVE them all. With these videos, cardio 3-4 times a week, and watching my calories, I've lost 23 lbs and gained muscle definition. I have some pictures on my profile.

    I have the Body Revolution and LOVE IT!! I am into week 3 and already seeing and feeling a difference. I took a before pic and would like to take a 30 day picture to see the progress..... I will try and post them when i get to that point. The BR comes with a meal/menu plan but I am not following it as i just try to eat healthy and watch my portions. Although there is several recipes in there that i will make and try as they look really good.

    I absolutely love Jillian!! In 2010 I lost 41 pounds in 5 months. It's all because of No More Trouble Zones and 30 Day Shred!! She is awesome!! I'm doing her videos again so hopefully I can get the same results! :)

    I have tried most of them and I like 6 Week 6 Pack, Ripped in 30, and Banish Fat. I have to get the Kickboxing one. Everytime I got to Target, it is sold out LOL...

    If you're looking for Jillian's CD's, order them from Amazon directly. You can get them for about $8.00 a piece. I ordered all of her videos available at one time and got them 3 days later.

    I personally hate Jillian. I call her the Devil Lady, but I can say that she WORKS YOU OUT in a short period of time. I'm on week 3 of Ripped in 30 and am not sure that there has been much change, but will be measuring at the end.

    I did Les Mills Pump before RI30. I lost almost 16" all over from it and it's a 90 day program. I took a couple days rest then started RI30. I'm not sure what I'll do after this DVD, but think I may go back to LMP because I loved it so much.
  • Yes when I went to Jamaica like 4 years ago I started 30DS and I lost inches 2 weeks before I went...I was only doing level 3 once a day I can imagine doing all 3 levels everyday would def help boost weight loss and losing inches within a week. I am now starting the 30DS with all 3 levels then finish with 6W6P. I want to see how many calories I burn doing all.

    I'm only 2/3 of the way through 30DS. I also walk daily and ride my horse several days a week.

    I do credit 30DS with the majority of my change though.

    Kateauch, do you remember how far apart your pictures were taken (date wise) ?

    These pictures are about 5/6 weeks apart I think? I've taken a lot of rest days during my 30DS journey, lol.

    I did the 30DS in March, didn't lose a pound, but lost a lot of inches and gained muscle. I started Body Revolution April 1st, and am 7 days from finishing! I've lost 13 pounds so far, and more inches. I'm down 3 clothing sizes, and I am in really great shape both in cardio and strength. My upper body is ripped! I love her workouts, and after a break (Insanity in July!), I will return to a hybrid with many of my JM favorites in rotation. I love Banish Fat Boost Metabolism. I used it for additional cardio during my body rev program. It's a killer workout!

    Day 1 was Jan 1, Day 171 was a few days ago. Went from 181.5lbs, 42%BF, Size 12 US pants to 160lbs 19.7%, Size 6 US pants.

    Thanks to Jillian's 30DS, it jump started my love for fitness. I have moved on to other programs that are not JM's but I will never forget what 30DS has done for me! Hands down IMO 30DS is the best of her programs - RI30 is OK but I did not find it challenging enough.
