Odd, I've had mine for a few months and it just started acting iffy on me in the same way. I've been able to get it started, but I fear it will only get worse…It could be the strap, low battery in the transmitter, etc etc…which are fix-able. I've also read that Polar has pretty good customer service… Here's a prior post…

I do exactly the same thing for the same reasons. I eat at a base of 1500 and up to 1900 on exercise days(depending on cals burned). My BMR is between 1430-1500. Works for me!

Hi there! I'm on my second round of 30DS, but had the same nagging knee pain through round 1 in January…and for the same reasons…I had been inactive for a loooong time. Anyway, I found Level 2 less intense for my knees, so give it a try. I found some moves in LV 3 hard on my knee, so be wary. Best thing to do for now is…

How did everyone from this thread do? From the time of the above posting (2/2) to today, I've lost 17 lbs…pretty close to my birthday goal, so I'm psyched about it.

North Mississippi! MSU alum!

HUGE difference…congrats and definitely be proud of yourself. It's a great program to kick-start a fitness journey. As for the 2lb loss, there's obviously a lot more going on! The pics don't lie!! Plus, give it a few more days and I'd bet ya the scale will drop a bit more. I lost an additional 3 lbs directly AFTER I…

That's amazing progress!! Congrats! I want to start Insanity soon and this is totally inspiring!!
-
Take before and after pictures AND measurements. The scale will most likely 'lie' about the progress you're making. Eat enough to adequately fuel your body…Drink plenty of water… Recommended: Take a rest day every week…I took one after each level (10days)… AND hang in there! FYI: most of my results didn't show until Level…

YES, YES, YES…this movie is one you'll never forget watching but wish you could.

9 holes in the ears, including 1 tragus. Lip stud and navel… I HAD my eyebrow, my nostril, my tongue, and both nipples pierced in the past. Guess I like the pain ;)
-
I think it's fat shaming only when the OP themselves voices how 'fat' they thought their previous size was. It's very likely that their old size is one that those larger aspire or wish to be. I found one example where the person was a US size 12 in her before pic, and she was calling herself fat and disgusting. Sure, she's…

Great before and after pics! The program has definitely changed your shape…you can tell you've tightened up! Love the progress charts and calendar too…looking forward to doing Insanity this summer. WTG and keep up the progress!!

Bump... I'll have to try it!
-
Glad to see others loving it and getting results! I'm only on day 9 but so far, I really like it! I feel the pain in the right places, so I'm expecting great results. I'm following the Lift & Shape schedule b/c my booty is on the flatter side. His Bum Bum work-out shoots my heart-rate through the roof, and I really enjoy…

I've been doing all sorts of variations of squats, lunges, and burpees, mostly through Jillian Michael's dvd workouts. They've toned my legs a lot, and I've lost a few inches off the fattest part of my thighs since the beginning. However, I recently did a few of the Brazil Butt Lift workout dvd's, and I felt actual…

I'm 5'8 and at 187lbs I was about a size 14/16 (US), depending on brand. I think my hips were 44" at widest part at the time. Really depends on body type and build…everyone's shaped a little different and will lose weight from different areas. I'm now 168 and fit in a size 10/12, hips are 41".
-
Awesome NSV! Hard work pays off. It's a wonderful 'hooray' feeling to fit in old clothes or a smaller size in the store! Keep it up! :)
-
I am still a work-in-progress but am proud of my results so far! November 6: 200lbs April 6: 168lbs
-
Don't think it matters either way. Day 14 implies you were already 4 days into level 2? Personally, I'd just pick up where you left off with level 2….I couldn't move off it quick enough! I really enjoyed level 3 though. I've read Jillian recommends taking 1-2 days off per week while following any of her programs. The 3 day…
-
I was spot on with diet and the program…and I didn't see results until day 23, level 3! I felt stronger and my pants were a bit looser, but the scale didn't budge until halfway through level 3. In the end, I was down 5lbs from the beginning, as well as 2" each off my waist and hips, and 1" off my arms and thighs. Hang in…

Depends on many factors including financial goals, work stability, and lifestyle. For me, buying a house doesn't fit in my lifestyle. I moved from Mississippi to Alabama to New Jersey to Portugal within a 6 year span. Now we're looking at work in Norway and will most likely move again. We have the money for a downpayment,…

Yup, I do this ^^^…and it's so good. I also use the food processor to make these no-bake cookies: http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/10/02/chocolate-peanut-butter-no-bake-cookies/

I love Jillian and do nearly all her work-outs!! It's a great feeling to fit back into old pants or to wear something new and feel good in it, especially after working so hard for it! WTG…keep it up!
-
good grief…don't even have a clue on how many calories I consumed yesterday! It was an 11 hour celebration with my Portuguese family…I live in Portugal so it was all traditional Portuguese foods. Hard to log it all, but I'm sure I was way over on Fat, Carbs, Sodium….the works (despite my 630 cal workout)! Up about 2lbs on…
-
Personally, I'd go with option 1. If you're new to Jillian or working out in general, I would recommend doing her 30 DS program first. It's what kick-started my fitness level! No More Trouble Zones (NMTZ-toning) and Banish Fat Boost Metabolism (BFBM-cardio) are kick-*kitten* workouts. Alternate those plus another 1-2 of…

Hello! I'm an American living in Portugal, and I'm loving the European lifestyle! I have about 7 kilos left to lose and would love to be your friend! :)

Just amazing! amazing...

Starting April 1st, I'm doing a hybrid of Brazil Butt Lift and 6week6pack. I'll be ready for the bikini by end of May!!
