Hi! I just started this week after doing 6 weeks of a beginner workout from Nia Shanks. I am on week 2.

I am looking to start on Monday the 27th, I would love to join a group or start a group...I have done the program before but not consistently. I am looking to find people to keep me motivated and challenged. Let me know if anyone is interested. If there is a challenge group already, I would love to join :)

I started this week! I have to take a beak in 2 weeks for vacation but I would love a group

I would think that would be fine as long as you get it done :)

I am starting Monday too! I did the first 3 workouts last week and loved them but my official start is Monday! Good luck!

Keep doing it! It DOES get easier. Trust me. For the first few times I had to stop, rewind, play and do it again. At some points I found myself cursing at the TV and at Chalene because I could not figure out what she was doing. I DO SOLEMNLY SWEAR it gets easier. I have done the program 2 times already. Now, I can do them…

Love this post because I feel the same way. In fact, I was reading it while I was eating some doritos. I refuse to deprive myself of foods because I will only want them more. Everything in moderation...I have been steadily losing as well :) Good for you!

Sleep :)

You are amazing and such an inspiration!!! Keep up the great work!!!

That sounds like a good idea :) It may keep you fuller longer as well...I think I should try that. I did it in the beginning, I don't remember if it worked. LOL

I am still here with you, Beth!!! I have started to gain some weight back and I am not sure why. I do need some motivation to kick it into high gear because I am approaching a year of logging and exercising. I am likeing the JMBR so far...but I am still here for ya! You got this!

I just started last week, so I am right here with you! The groups are great if they are active and people respond. I love hearing from people who are doing the same workouts you are and the same programs because you can compare notes, etc. It also keeps you motivated because it makes sure that you do your workouts. I am a…

I was thinking that, too, but I was sore the next day after, so it was a good workout, I think. If you have time, go for the cardio :) It won't hurt.

Hi! I just started Monday. I love the program so far. I would love to be buddies :) ~Brooke

Yeah, It wasn't that bad :) My arms are still sore though today :) I am looking forward to cardio!

It says that they shipped...I am starting ASAP!! I have done a few of her DVD's before and completed her 30 Day Shred program. I got good results from that, so I am looking forward to a new program.

Thanks, I have gained four pounds since that pic, but...I am hoping to lose it with Jillian! I can't wait to get my DVDS!!!

Thanks for posting this.....I needed to read this!

I am supposed to get mine by early next week, so I may be a few days behind you but I am in!

I would get so frustrated and yell at Chalene saying things like,"This is impossible! I can't do this!" and then I would get upset that I spent all of that money and I couldn't even do the workout, but...by week 2, I was doing it and enjoying it. Now, I have the music cranked up and it is just fun! You will get it. And, as…

WOW! Great progress! You look amazing :)

Maybe skip the stretch 40 day?

Good Luck! Hope you love it!

I get back from my vacation on Aug. 27th. I can start or join in then :)

Chalene says of the Turbos, the intensity goes as follows: Turbo Jam being the lowest, Turbo Kick (Classes at Gyms) and then Turbo Fire. It is intense, but I never did Turbo Jam or Kick, so I don't know the difference :) I love it!

Great job!!!!

That is amazing!

Great idea :) The major thing is that you need to love your exercise or it will never work out :) Good luck! P.S. Turbo Fire 45 is a LOT of fun! The last routine is great!

I hate to say it but the key words that you said are..."The only workouts I enjoy doing are the HIITS" If you don't look forward to your workout, you are most likely not going to want to do them. As Chalene says, your "energy" is in your head. I know that sounds crazy, but I get amped up when I do my TF workouts and I am…

Good luck! I am hoping you will LOVE the program as much as we do!!!
