KMJ1686 - I totally agree. My ankles and knees took a beating on my first round of JMBR. I bought new shoes which help and I don't push it too hard on the plyo.

I did Workout 2 on Tuesday but didn't get Cardio 1 in last night. I'm actually pretty sore from Monday & Tuesday's workouts. I worked until 8:30 pm and was too exhausted from running around at work. I'll try to do Workout 1 tonight. I feel like I'm coming down with a cold or something though.

I got off work on time yesterday (a miracle), and did Workout 1 before dinner. It's amazing how my body remembers the moves. I felt amazing afterwards. I'm on the West Coast, so I won't do Workout 2 until some of you are going to bed.

I'm in to start today! I did the whole 90 day program a couple years ago and it was awesome! I haven't been able to stick it out more than a few weeks since then.

I do this all the time since my family isn't following low-carb. I feel wasteful, but my teenage son snatches up the crust anyways lol.

Hello! I'm Diane, just turned 37. I started a low carb diet as part of a study called "One Diet Doesn't Fit All" through Stanford University. The purpose is to determine if our bodies' genotypes are predisposed to lose more weight with low carb or low fat diets. I was randomly placed into a low carb cohort and others were…

Hi all. I'm 37, living in Silicon Valley in Northern California. I'm in the middle of a low-carb diet study through a local university and trying to lose 30 lbs. It is really hard not to eat rice, bread and bagels!

I'm here!

Hi! I'll add ya :)

Hello! My name is Diane, I'm 36 and live in Palo Alto, CA. I have a 16 year old son, and I've been trying to lose the baby weight for 16 years lol. I work full time and keep pretty busy with my son (who's a 10th grader), his dad and our two dogs. I would like to lose 30+ lbs, but need some motivation. I'm on a low-carb…

This is an awesome calendar - thank you!

I hate it when they bring cookies and snacks to work. It's so tempting. I'm trying to make the container system work and am tweaking it a bit so it fits my lifestyle. My meal plan today is: Breakfast: Chocolate shakeology (with almond milk, coffee and vanilla extract) Snack: red grapes Lunch: Mixed spring greens with…

Shakeology is pretty good. I like Chocolate best. Greenberry was really gross to me.

I started yesterday :) Feel free to add me too.

I just started 21 day fix yesterday. I've done TurboFire and drink Shakeology. I'll friend ya!

I had it - especially since my muscles were so sore from Day 1 and 2. Keep at it, it will get easier!

A did 30DS a couple years ago. It was the first workout system that I finished. I lost almost 10 lbs in combination with eating less. It definitely prepped me to move on to the Body Revolution 90 day system which rocks! I think 30DS is a great combo of cardio & strength training that you can squeeze into a busy day and…

I would burn in the low 200s in Phase 1, 250s in Phase 2 and 300+ in Phase 3. I think as I got stronger, I went harder which lead to a higher burn. My FT4 isn't picking up a signal now (keeps reading 0) - I need to get the battery replaced.

You seem pretty fit (compared to me when I started) so you'll do great. The program utilizes 3, 5 & 8 lb hand weights. I ended using my 5's most of the time. You'll definitely get stronger! I went from push-ups on knees to military style by the end. Yay for Maui. I went there last spring and loved it! I'mi going to Oahu &…

When I did the full 90 day program I lost inches all over including my thighs. My problems are my upper arms and I lost inches there amazingly!

I did -20% TDEE last time around and it worked well. I'm trying to "shock my system" with the kickstart plan 1200 cals this week.

Looks like we're on the same schedule. Running man and suicides are my shortcomings. My leg muscles are screaming at me right now, especially since I rode my bike home from work. Back to School night for my 9th grader in a few then I'll come home and hit the gym for my second cardio of the day. I don't do Cardio 1 for my…

Trying to stay at 1200 calories a day is rough for me! Last night I was so hungry. I did my 2nd workout of the day (kickstart week) and it wasn't so bad. I'm doing elliptical instead of Cardio 1 because I get really bored with Cardio 1 on normal days lol. Workout 2 today was a great way to start my morning. Then I rode my…

Great work snykiel! Even better that your kids did it with you. My 14 year old (lanky, eats me out of house and home) just sits there on the couch with the laptop while i'm doing it.

Hi five! I'm finding it "easy" this 2nd time around but know by Month 2 it will be harder. The hard part for me is cutting down my calories.

Hi everyone, I'm not new - I finished my first round of JMBR in November '12. Due to sickness and laziness, I've fallen off the wagon and need a reboot. I started with Workout 1 today and am trying to follow the Kickstart plan. Diane

Oops I kind of forgot about this! I think I'll try starting it this week.

Ok, cool, thanks. NMTZ and BFBM are no joke. I could barely do them before I did Body Revolution and now I can do them ok.

Ooh, I'm in! I have all the DVD's except Quick Trouble Zones. Suggestions for a sub activity?

Wow, great results! You can totally tell in your midsection :)
