I have every Jillian dvd (except yoga meltdown which I didn't like). I am just finishing up Body Revolution and will be rotating through all of her dvds (including body revolution). I have a 6 week schedule made (with no repeated workouts because I have that many Jillian dvds). Here is an example of one of my weeks: Day 1:…

I was hacked yesterday. I hope by "recently" you mean today =)

I've done Jillian Michael's kettlebell workout. I highly recommend that dvd. I'd say that a mix between cardio and weight training is a good description. I would do a search for kettlebell workouts in youtube to check out some moves. If you decide to buy a kettlebell, I would go a bit heavier than you think you can handle.…

I never play in public games and my account was hacked. They only stole my gold. Left my gear and gems alone (probably because I'm only level 34). I will be getting an authenticator asap. But from your posts you say that an authenticator doesn't help... a friend of mine says he got one and hasn't been hacked since. It's…

I'm not doing it for three weeks because I would get so bored-- so I'll be done tomorrow! But I have been at it for 13 weeks; did 1 week of just cardio while on vacation. That counts, right? And 3-part push-ups? Mine are only two parts. lol

I had a co-worker come by my desk and see a picture of my mom and I on my desk from 5 years ago (I was thinner then). He looked at it and said, "Wow! You used to be really skinny!" I told him that was a very offensive comment and he quickly apologized. I found out later that he asked a friend of mine when her baby was…

"You dress well for your size" Um thanks, b----.

I have a crush on Kenta. I'm also a big fan of Anita. Mainly because her form is always perfect and she has a great attitude. But, honestly, I like everyone except Sari and Lana. They do everything half-a$$ed.

My sister was staying with a co-worker at someone's house while in New Zealand. One night she woke up to a little girl giggling. The next morning, her co-worker asked her why she was laughing. They both heard the same thing! She asked the owners of the house if it was haunted and they said visitors have reported seeing and…

Good luck! I hope you love it as much as I do!

My calorie burns have remained close to the same for phases 2 and 3. The only one that is slightly higher is cardio 3.

My thighs are 23.5 inches (I'm 5'5'') and are pretty muscular. I think 19-20 inches is small/just right for your height. But I couldn't help but notice that you are 5'2'' and 46kg (100 lbs)? I know BMI isn't everything, but you are in the underweight range for your BMI. May I ask why you are trying to lose weight? Maybe…

I'm on Week 11. I've lost 20 pounds, 30 inches all around (5 off my waist, hips, and bust each) and two jean sizes (a very tight size 16 to a comfortable 12). I'm not doing the meal plan-- just restricting calories. The workouts are great!

Just did workout 11 and I'm so happy that Lana got called out about using light weights! When Jillian yelled, "I said HEAVY weights! Do you need glasses?!" I cheered! Also, I love that Natalie says the Sh- word during wo 11.

Try logging it as "circuit training, general" for now. I found that it was fairly accurate for me after I got my hrm.

I use Designer Whey (Vanilla). I mix 1 scoop with 1/2 cup of greek yogurt, 1/2 cup almond milk, 1 tbsp flax seed, and 1/2 of a frozen banana. So delicious!

I eat a pizza lean pocket when I'm craving pizza. Only 220 calories!

WOW! Great job! I can really tell in your stomach and hips! Congratulations!

If you've done other Jillian dvds, she never switches during kickboxing. She says that she likes to maintain her "fighting stance."

My feet cramp up quite a bit-- especially with the cardio dvds. Jillian talked about foot pain/cramping on a recent podcast. She said it could be a number of things: the wrong shoes, dehydration, not enough potassium, etc. I can't remember everything she said, but check out the Jillian Michaels Show podcast-- she gives a…

That's awesome! Great NSV!

I completely agree! But after three times doing workout 9, I can finally do the push-up jacks! Still can't do the rock n roll squats and the boat pose to hollow man. What a nightmare those are! I'm excited to do workout 10 again tomorrow =)

Designer Whey Vanilla. It's good with greek yogurt, almond milk, and a frozen banana... yum!

She got me, too! I yell at Jillian all the time. Especially in workout 9. Some of those moves are way too difficult.

I skipped it. I still lost 4 pounds in my first week without it!

Yes, but I'm glad I did it. It helped me perfect my form on some of the moves.

I do not follow the food plan. I eat 1200-1600 calories per day. I eat about 1/2 my exercise calories back so that I net 1000-1200 (this is probably fine since Jillian's plan has you eating 1200 calories and not eating back any exercise calories). Before I had a hrm, I logged everything as circuit training general. I found…

I am going to be traveling for a week in May and won't be able to bring hand weights. I plan on bringing the three Cardio dvds for BR, plus kickbox fastfix and BFBM. Also going to try and go running. I'll start back up where I left off when I get back, but I want to keep with my workout schedule if possible. When I was in…

I'm at the end of week 9. I don't follow the meal plan, but I eat 1200-1600 calories per day. I've lost 19 pounds, 2 jean sizes, and 28 inches (I measure in all of the places in the booklet that comes with BR). I'm most happy with the 5 inches lost on my waist! Only 25 pounds and 2 jean sizes to go and I'll be at my goal!

I wouldn't worry about it. Some days I have a ton of energy and add an extra workout, other days I can barely make it through. It may be diet or sleep. Sometimes if I have alcohol or don't sleep well, It is difficult for me to get through my morning workout. the next day. Stick with it! Good luck!
