Just did Day 1 Week 2... lots of abs!! Was struggling a bit but made it through! Took measurements and down 1/2 an inch in some areas so progress is being made!!!

I started on Monday! I am a big fan of JM workouts and did Body Rev last fall/winter. Fell off the wagon and am now back starting with this. Would love to check in and keep accountable with people doing it too. Feel free to add me!

So proud of how well you are doing!! You def keep me in check and even put me to shame in the will power dept! Can't wait til you join me lifting on lunch break!! :tongue:

MyPsalm63 - I am your older twin! lol! age 38 height 5'6" HW: 180 CW: 170.5 GW: 135-130

Went to the gym at lunch and hit the treadmill, knee did okay so I will get back to BR tonight!! At this point I will probably just start from the begining and will go easy on lunges for now. How is everyone finding it?

Hey ladies! I have taken the last 2 days off... I woke up with a bum knee on Sunday. It is hurting mostly when I am bending it up and down stairs. I am thinking from the lunges... today has been better and I am going to try BR tonight to see how it goes... Anyone else having knee issues? I didn't have this my first round,…

Workout 2 done!! Followed it up with 20 mins of pilates... I find JM's cool downs lacking and like streching things out with the pilates afterwards. I'm taking my 'before pics' tomorrow morning and can't wait to see the results!! I didn't take pics last time only measurements. Hope everyone is enjoying it!!

Having done most of Jillian's DVDs you will notice alot of the same moves with modifications. BR really starts to get hard on weeks 7&8 lots of plyo is added... I am not a fan of her cardio, especially #3. Week 6 is a good ab/core workout. Take your time to build your strength and balance in the first few weeks... you will…

Today ended up being my day one. I am also planning to add 30 mins of cardio everyday running, walking, eliptical etc. I am not following her menu plan - way to hard to do with working full time, kids and hubby. But I do stick to 1350 cal a day and eat back some exercise cals. I tried 'eating more' and TDEE -20% and had no…

Hello! There is a group that started JMBR on April 1 - http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/942856-body-revoultionaries-starting-april-1st-phase-1 It will be my second run - lost 10 lbs and a lot of inches first time I completed it before Xmas. Starts off easy but don't worry by workout 6&7 she will be kicking your…

Hey hope you are feeling better!! I will be starting w1 w/o 1 tonight... will try to do my workouts in teh morning but after the long weekend hard to get out of bed this morning! lol! I have done BR prior to Xmas and liked how toned I got! I am not a fan of the cardio workouts so I will be alternating with running. Looking…

Hello!! I am ready to tackle my second round on April 1 - no foolin :) Got good results last time and hoping for even better this time around! I've been slacking since Christmas (made a brief come back a few weeks ago) but am ready to get back at it. I find the support from the boards like this is what really helps and…

I just moved from Ontario to Alberta; where in Ontario are you going? It's a big place :)

Week 2 w/o 1 last one then one to 3&4!! My hubby has joined me in eating healthy and exercising which has been both great and frustrating - he is like a male Jillian lol! So last night we hit the gym together - over an hour and 502 cals!! We did cardio and weights... and then soaked in the hot tub lol!! I am determined to…

Only got 20 mins of cardio in this morning... a little stiff and slow getting out of bed this morning!! lol!! Will have a go at it again tonight. Stepped on the scale for the first time in a couple of days (I'm a daily weigher but only record once a week) and down 2 lbs!! Almost back to what I was before my 'break' after…

Got up at 5am and got w/o 2 in!! Feel great - so glad to be back at it!! Hoping my Phase 1 results are better then last time, as this round I am able to push harder, use weights and do the advanced moves. I would like to try to drop 10 lbs a phase... and tons of inches!! Would be nice to have a bikini bod for summer!! So…

Just finished day 1 w/o 1!! I plan on workingout in the morning... but wanted to start today so did it tonight. :-) This is my second go round (finished at xmas with 12lbs lost and tons of inches) I did not follow the diet.. to hard with family and working. I am proud to say I was able to do the advanced versions this…

Hi everyone! I finished BR at Christmas... actually I ALMOST finished... I stopped over the holidays with a week to go! Since then I've gone back to work and gained back 5 of the 12lbs I had lost!! So today I start again. I was a part of another group doing BR and found the support was what kept me going! I look forward to…

Well I am back from holidays and will be starting workouts 11&12 over again... so 3 weeks left!! But at least I will be wearing all my new workout clothes my hubby got me! lol!! I will also have the challenge of starting a new job on the 7th... I have been a SAHM since we moved here in June, but decided to get back to…

Gatx - Congrats!!! You look great!! 5 inches off your waist?! That is awesome - so jealous!!!

Welcome Ashley! I hope you love BR as much as the rest of us here! I agree with Jen... find a group that has just started, the support will really help. This is the longest I have stuck with a home program and I owe it all to this group!! Back from another 3 days off... :grumble: I have been getting too wrapped up in…

Workout 12 done... I really like it... except for the wheelbarrow push ups... yeah right! lol!!! I could barely get into the position let alone do a push up!! I can honestly say that so far 6 & 12 are my favorites!! I can't believe that I have stuck with it this long... a big THANK YOU to all of you on this thread for…

Jen - glad your little one is okay! Workout 11 - WOW!! lol!! So I tried to do all the moves, but ended up doing most of them as the modified versions! I did love the last ab circuit though. Chutterungas... bahahaha!! I give it my best but my form sucks. I'm wondering what 12 has in store for me today! My last day will be…

Last workout 10 today! Scared of moving on to 11 & 12! lol!! Since my Dad has moved in, things have been so off track and I really need to get back on track... even if it means workingout while he is still in bed in the mornings I'm gonna have to do it! So I wake him up with my grunts and groans... it has to be done! lol!!…

I bow down to you Jen!! I was able to do it for the jumpstart... but now... lol... I've only got energy for pilates after! I did my last workout 9 today with my HRM!! 314 cals... so MFP wasn't too far off! I should have put it on for shoveling the driveway... next time! Which will probably be in a few days! :grumble: I…

Workout 9 in and some pilates after (love the strech I get from pilates)! I need to do workout 10 tomorrow, cardio 3 Saturday :-( and then repeat before moving on! 4 days off and I felt like it was 4 weeks during todays workout!! NSV - My Dad said I've lost weight since he seen me in the summer!! So although I struggle…

I'm finding workouts 9&10 much harder then 7&8!! The first circuit of 9 really kicks my butt!! Push ups and planks have never been my strong point. I am glad I only have 2 more of each to do... but then I'm sure 11&12 are going to be BRUTAL! Thanks Moe for the info! I'd really like to try Chalean X, maybe some heavier…

Cardio 3..... I didn't know wether to puke or cry!! After doing Cardio 3 today I have real doubts on doing a program like Insanity. I really like JM's workouts because your not bouncing up and down for the whole 30-60 mins. I like the resistance training best. D - That is exactly how I feel about my muscle hiding under a…

I just started Phase 3 but am already thinking ahead too! I have JM's NMTZ, Shed and Shred, RI30, Killer Buns & thighs and Full Frontal. I think I will mix these up along with BR for a bit before making a purchase on something like Chalean Extreme or Insanity (any of the beachbody). I want to burn fat (lots of it) and…
