If you start by mixing running and walking, or jogging and walking, until your legs become stronger it really helps! I over came mine and I don't get them anymore. They're caused from underdeveloped calf muscles. Another option, take a ballet class while you're starting to hit the pavement. It really works all the muscles…

I always threw in an extra workout on the cardio day of some yoga. I usually do vinyasa, but while I'm doing this program I go for something a little slower paced that focuses more on stretching. You could youtube some good shoulder yoga videos and warm up with sun salutations. Personally I don't think her cool downs are…

People seem to forget that "skinny" girls can be fat too. Just because someone appears thin doesn't mean their body fat percentage is lower than that of those other girls your saw necessarily. There is such a think as "skinny fat". Also everyone here is correct, genetics plays a huge role in where you are destined to store…

You could try doing raw till 4, raw vegan diet until you get home from work/school ect. From what I've seen/read if you go fully raw you need to eat 2000-4000 calories a day depending on how much you exercise. Since you can get 80% of the calories this ensures you get enough micro nutrients, calories and macro nutrients.…

You need to talk to them about your intimacy issues. Good sex, meaning consecutively good sex is usually a reflection of good communication. Going after some steamy romance will hit a wall or leave you feeling mixed up emotionally and regretful. If you love the person, just talk candidly about what it is you want. You also…

Try to figure out a way to step on the cables so you get as much resistance as you need. I would test out a few poses and see what feels comfortable. The rows should be easy, and I bet you can look up proper form.

Wow you look FANTASTIC! I'm doing body revolution right now, on week 3. It's had some dramatic effects on me thus far and I'm excited to see my results. I'm a size 12-14 (pants) and hoping to get back down to a 8-10. Hopefully I can be as successful as you were :)

I think a bride-to-be group sounds awesome! I'm sure there are a lot more women who would be interested in joining. I'm not sure how to create groups but if you are I say we go for it. Would we just do weekly weigh ins, or weekly weigh ins and maybe bi-weekly measurements?

Hi I recently got engaged as well and have about 40-50 lbs to lose as well :) I'm 23 and putting my butt through school, which has made it hard to find time to exercise. I just started Jillian Michaels Body Rev program. You should add me, I would love to have someone to keep me accountable :)

I started on the 30th. I'm so surprised at how much I improved after doing the cardio workout. Don't skip it! It really helps.

That is very true. You look amazing and you have come a long way. Keep it up girl :)

You look amazing!!!

WOW is all I can say. To stay motivated for so long and come so far. You must be super proud of yourself. Seeing this inspires me, I am only trying to loose 40 lbs and at times it seems so difficult. Thank you for posting your results, they are truly inspiring :)

You look great!! So inspiring to see people getting results :)

Hello! My name is Karri and I recently started Jillian's Body Revolution. I'm almost done with week 1, and I must say the first workout kicked my butt! By the second workout I was feeling much more able to keep up and give it my all. I'm excited to finish this week off, I just have workout two and cardio one left for this…

You could try out fit and active brand at aldi. They have a huge variety of foods that won't hurt your budget. I love their variety of oatmeals. One packet may not seem like much, but they're very filling and I usually have one with a cup of brewed tea. I think you'd really enjoy it, and that leaves a little wiggle room if…

My goal is right around 20-30. Feel free to add me, I'm also new here. I've recently Started jillian michaels 30 day shred and couch to 5 k.

I recently started her 30 day shred and I'm already seeing some changes. I think you're going to like Jillian's workouts. I know I was impressed. Good luck on your journey and don't give up! She has some moves that will feel impossible since she really likes working those small rarely use muscles but tough it out!

Hello! I'm trying to shred off about 20 pounds over the next few weeks. I'm on my fourth day of 30 day shred, and I must say I'm impressed with Jillian, it's a great short workout. I'm also doing couch to 5k and I do yoga at least twice a week. If there is anyone doing similar programs I'd love to hear your results or…
