Hi everyone. I just joined this group. I have been on mfp since January of this year and I have been doing JMBR for about a 1 1/2 months. I'm in week 2 of phase 2 doing WO5 & 6. The pounds are coming off slowly, but it seems like my belly pooch is getting smaller...so I'm happy about that. I have about 50 more pounds to…

Less cardio and more weights. So much cardio will not allow your body to recover in order to rebuild the muscles you have as a previous poster mentioned. Compound movements work mulitple muscle groups at the same time. When I used to go to the gym, I enjoyed the body pump classes. They use fairly light weights with lots of…

Sounds like you need a new man.The only thing I can say is that at least he's being honest. However, you may want to reconsider marrying him. Imagine if you had kids with him....how would he feel about you then...unless you've already had kids with him. I'm married, gained weight while married, and my hubby has never told…

You retain water during your cycle and that water has to go somewhere. Muscle loves to hold onto water so it's possible it can affect your inches. You should only be measuring yourself once to twice a month and take progress pics too (once a month). The scale is not an accurate reflection of the changes taking place in…

I agree with everyone else. I'm making my own schedule and I don't do her cardio at all. I do my own cardio which mostly consists of dance aerobics, walking, and tennis. I try to do her sculpting videos 4 days a week...doesn't always happen...but I make sure I do at least 3 workouts with her. I'm still working out at least…

Great job. Keep it up!

There's a major difference...looking good. Congrats!

Love this!!!

I think it's all about personal preferences. I don't think we can make assumptions about what a man will like based on his race. My husband is white and he likes my big boobs/butt. He doesn't understand why I'm trying to lose weight. However, I do understand what the op is saying...most black men I know want a big…

This post is encouraging since the scale isn't moving much for me either. However, several people have commented on my weight loss. I will have to take a progress photo this weekend and more measurements to see how I'm doing. I'm starting workout 5 tomorrow. It looks super tough...not going to enjoy it..but will push play.

I use a HRM and added my own personal exercise "JM Body Rev" to my list...but it's basically circuit training. Try adding it under circuit training.

Keep saying no or learn how to incorporate things like going to McDonald's occasionally into your diet. I use the MFP app on my phone to look up calories when going out so it really hasn't impacted my relationship with family or co-workers. I still pretty much eat what I want as long as it's in my cal limit. However, you…

Feel free to add me anyone..I'm on workouts 3 and 4 of phase one. I'm in week 4 of the program. Can never have too much support.

Eat more food and lift heavy stuff.

I'd take the salmon minus the quinoa....b/c I love seafood. I'll take fish over steak anyday.

I'm in week 3...I just restarted after being sick for about two weeks. I think I'll stick with workouts 3 and 4 for two more weeks before I feel comfortable to move on.

There's legal and then there's right and wrong. The fact that u're on here asking about it shows that u're uncomfortable. Here in the USA u're talkingvto jailbait. Jailbait or not....how bout u let the kid grow up a little b/c at the end of the day she's a kid.

I'm only on week 3 of BR, had to stop for about 2 weeks due to a really nasty cold and restarted. I have CLX....she focuses on heavy weights so you have to have some good dumbbells...at least 25lbs dumbbells. I don't care for the cardio in the dvds. I like the lifting. I got bored with the program..stopped and started JM…

Restarting today. I was in the middle of week 3 when a nasty cold derailed me. Restarting today. Good luck.

Mixed people....not all mixed people look mixed. I myself have dark brown skin, but have a lot of European ancestry due to my Jamaican background. I identify myself as black. I married a beautiful white man and when we have children...they are free to identify themselves however they want. When they ask me what they…

It's called move on...if a guy tells you he doesn't deserve you...it's probably because he doesn't. A guy told me this once and I didn't listen....I wish I had...total waste of time. Find someone else.

Ice cream and popcorn

Just watched some of the infomercial on youtube. She sounds annoying. I don't think I could do it. I don't like Jillian, but I rather deal with her.

Wow! Just 2 months...great!

Nope. Simply beautiful. U don't look like u need to lose any weight. Just focus on being healthy and feeling good about urself.

love this.

Sounds like a baby. Let him starve then while he watches u eat. He should be glad u even cook.

Sorry...I hate pop tarts...but I LOVE ICE CREAM and eat it pretty much daily.

U answered ur own question when u said u eat only 1200 cals per day with an even lower net. Try to net at least 1200 cal per day and eat more. Go to scooby foo fitness calculator to figure out how many cals u need per day. I eatt 1800-2000 cal a day and the weight and inches are coming off. Eat more. 1200 cals per day is…

Congrats on your success and on finding Jesus. Amen!
