    Mine took 6 days from order to receive. I am not personally following the diet plan due to allergies to most of the options but I am following the workout schedule.
  • Thanks! I'm vegetarian, so I was just wondering if the plan is feasible for someone who doesn't eat meat.

    It is, but you will have to pick and choose your meals to remove the ones with meat. I have a bunch of food allergies so I decided to just to my meals on my own and my husband was worried that I was paying too much for just a new workout program. After seeing my 30 day results he asked if Jillian accepted tips...lol

    There are quite a few dishes on her meal plan that you can make vegetarian by swapping out chicken for eggplant and such.

    I'm a vegetarian too, but to be honest, I didn't really like the recipes in the program ... maybe it's just me. If you follow my blog, I will be recording my meals as well ... from a vegetarian perspective.

    I just ordered the program and can't wait for it to arrive. All of your results look so great!
  • I would love to do this, but there is noo way we could swing over $100 for something right now.... Wish there was a program that wasn't so expensive.

    Keep in mind that she has an easy pay option and lets you split it up into payments if that helps. I totally understand the financials. I'm not working right now and going to school full time, so I had to beg my hubby to let me spend it. Totally worth it thought

    Also keep in mind that Jillian has similar programs to this. You can get 30 Day Shred or Ripped in 30 for under $10 until you can put money away to save for BR. :o)

    Anyone thinking about ordering it....do it! I love it!! I'm on phase 2, week 8. 14 lbs down so far and I'm not taking measurements until the end, but I'm seeing a huge difference in muscle tone.

    Amazing results everyone. I have mine and aside from holidays have been trying to keep on track lost 10 pounds so far. Just wondering though how are you tracking your workouts?? The cardio and the workouts?

    Thanks and keep it up all. K

    I am dying to start but no shipping to Australia as yet, am really anoyed, if anyone hears of a way let me know. I think it would be awesome i love her workouts.

    Hey there,

    I get a LOT of fitness stuff shipped from the US to Australia, and I do it via a mail-forwarding service called myus.com. Basically, they set you up with a "US address" where everything you want to buy that doesn't ship to Australia can be shipped, and they ship it on to you. The rates are quite reasonable, I've found, plus the timing on shipping is amazing - around 4 business days!

    You should check it out.

    HAAAA! They processed my order (and charged me) twice, too. I just sent back the second kit a week or so ago.

    I'm on Phase 1, week 3. I'm losing inches and definitely feeling like I am on my way to becoming fit. I hve a problem with eating 1200 calories a day like she advises to do, though her meals are simple, fresh, and easy to prepare.

    Tonight I did Workout 4 and then did Workout 1 immediately after. Why? Just because I *like* Workout 1. IDK. LOL!!!

    Hi. I am considering ordering Body Revolution, but I am wondering how well it the diet portion of the program will work for a vegetarian. Anyone have the systems already? What do you think?

    JM's meal plan here is completely meat centric.

    My coworker and I bought BR at the same time and have been doing it together. She is a vegetarian but recently started eating fish again for the health benefits. We both thought it would be difficult to do the diet as the vegetarian options are limited. You can always buy her Master Your Metabolism cookbook. I ended up buying it for more variety and there are many more vegetarian recipes in there than in the meal plan book. Also some of the recipes can be altered to be vegetarian. "Meat centric" is an accurate description though. Haha :o)
  • Hello everyone, I just completed the first week of the Body Revolution Program and lost 4.2 pounds. I decided to take a rest day every week from exercise but also the diet plan. It is my day off today and I have been grazing on fruit, low fat snacks, and whole wheat crackers but no junk food or fast food. I think that I will be more successful this way. What do you guys think? I am also new to my fitness pal and wrote my first blog, not sure if I did it right.

    Hoping to make some friends to hold my actions and help me reach my goals!
  • Hi all!!

    I am now on my second day of the Body Revolution and have gone all out with both her workouts and her 7-Day Kickstart meal plan. I am making everything from scratch, a far cry from the processed foods I am used to. I am loving the workouts, its so positive with all the people in there and the music just rocks!

    I've done Jillian's 30 Day Shred and Ripped in 30 with great success but have now reached a plateau. I do not have that much weight to lose, and I am more of a yo-yo dieter recycling the same 20 pounds for the past years. I am a victim of emotional eating and a stressful lifestyle and am seeking to end this once and for all.

    If you are interested in following my journey, I have created a blog which I will be posting to daily describing how I prepare the meals (I will attempt to cook right out of her Fat Burning Meal Plan book and will be following her 7-Day Kickstart as well), and detailing my progress with the entire 90 days of workouts.

    Here is my blog-

  • Yes! It is worth it. I can't vouch 100%, no one can because its so new, you know what I mean? But I have a 100% positive feeling about this because I've done so many of her workouts, and Jillian's has always done good for me. I believe in what she does also because her work is always well researched. I have read her book "Master Your Metabolism" and it has changed my life. I've always thought of life as food in, food out, calories and exercise, but she's taught me that its so much more than that. What you eat, your environment, your stress levels and your sleep works in concert to make it happen for you. Attaining one's prime level of health is so much more than just calories in and out. Its all biochemical and our metabolic, hormonal health is so much more complex than that!

    Sorry if i am just going on and on, but all I can say is that I can vouch for her methods because I have lived them and felt the difference. The problem with me is that I have let my stressful life taken over me, and wreck havoc on my metabolism. I have also reached a plateau with my workouts.

    Thanks for all the input on JMBR!
  • I started Phase 1 Week 4 yesterday and so far I am down 3 lbs. I will take measurements at the end of this week as that will complete Phase 1! I am loving the workout. I have SEVERAL of JM's Workout DVD's so it was only natural that I would purchase (and love) this one as well. It is expensive but I've found that this just drives me more because I'm too cheap to let my money go to waste! :laugh:
  • Does anyone know how long it takes for delivery? Also, are you all following the eating plan too?

    Mine took just over a week to arrive. Yes, I am following the eating plan as well. Its great. Such a turnaround from the processed food world I came from

  • I am on day 4 of week (doing the kickstart) and I am down almost 3.5 lbs from 155 lbs. follow my blog at http://mybodyrevolutionblog.wordpress.com/

    I am 37 and ultimately have 50 pounds to lose. I am in the middle of week six of Jillian's Body Revolution. I have followed the workouts and did the kickstart week faithfully. I haven't been following her diet exactly since then but have been keeping calories around 1200 and not more than 1400 per day. I didn't lose any weight that first week.... so sad to give up all grains, fruit, sugar, and cheese.... without any results. The second week I was down 6 pounds... yay!! so fast forward to week five.... back up 6 pounds... boo!! So now I am back to my starting weight and trying sooo hard not to let this discourage me. I am sticking with it however because of how great I feel! The half hour workout is very doable every day and I have gained so much strength in 6 weeks I really can't believe it. I am holding on to the thought that the weight loss will come eventually, how can it not with an increase in muscle mass? I am considering finishing the second half of the program following her diet to a T, so we'll see how that goes. I have experienced every other benefit from her program except weight loss at this point, and I feel so much better and stronger than I did 6 weeks ago, so I'm still motivated to show up. I'm glad to read a lot of others are not having the rapid extreme weight loss Jillian advertises. Oh and my chronically sore lower back screamed at me the first 3 to 4 weeks, but now I'm glad to report that I hardly have any back pain at all! That alone is worth a million burpies!
