Jillian Michaels DVDs
I am a huge fan of Jillian. I just got her Yoga Inferno and Beginner Shred to add to my collection, and I plan on starting them this week :smile: Looking for friends who also love her workouts! Here's my story: In 2011, at 25 years old, I started a journey to lose a lot of weight. I started at 267 and hit my lowest at 179…

So here's my story
In 2011, at 25 years old, I started a journey to lose a lot of weight. I started at 267 and hit my lowest at 179 the following summer. I was thrilled! Then in 2013 I got pregnant with the baby I lost all the weight to have. Morning sickness brought back bad eating habits. Workouts went out the window. I forgot all that I…

Back at it again, here's my story...

Dr. Ian Smith "Shred" book
Thinking about buying and trying his 6-week program. Anyone out there doing it now?

SHREDDERS
I'm starting the Shred diet (by Dr. Ian Smith) on the 21st. Looking for others who are/have/will be doing it too. Anyone else out there?

Alli
I've kinda tried it once before, well before I actually set myself on the path I needed to be on, but now I am thinking about giving it another real shot. I've lost about 90lbs since March 2011, but I've been having trouble ever since I hit my goal weight of 180. This weight just seems to be where my body wants to be, but…

Finished! Results are in!
So I started JM BR April 30 and finished this past Friday. Had 2 set-backs that forced me to repeat a few weeks twice otherwise I would have been done mid-July. I LOVED IT and am planning to start over again mid-September to go straight through the holidays, and hopefully my hubby will join me. Here are my results: Weight…

Guys doing BR
Trying to get my hubby to do BR with me when I do round 2 in September. Any guys out there, or ladies with hubbies doing it? Just wondering what they think of it.

Workouts 9&10
Starting Phase 3 today, who else is with me?! :happy:

Iphone App that tracks running/walking routes
Looking for suggestions. Thanks!

80lbs GONE!
After 15.5 months of hard work at changing the way I live my life, I am finally 7 lbs away from my initial goal weight. So freaking happy today!!! Took me 4 months last year to lose the first 40, and another year to lose the next but I don't mind because it is GONE and NEVER coming back!!
-
Workouts 7&8
No Yankees on tonight so I think it's prime time to watch what I'm getting into next week, which is workouts 7&8. Should I be scared?
-
Workouts 5&6
I just started them Monday. Tonight will be my 2nd go at workout 5. My bumm and thighs are killing me!!! So many 1-legged squats and both days in a row, OWIE! I love it though. :tongue: Wouldn't have it any other way because it's working!

Random Bruises
I've been getting random bruises for a while from things that I can't remember what I may have done, but the ones I discovered last night made me laugh. I have 2 tiny bruises on the back of each shoulder. Took me a minute, but then I realized they must be from where my 8lb weight "kisses" my back during woodchoppers. Too…

Phase 1 complete!
No huge results through phase 1, but still very happy with my progress. I lost 2.2 lbs and a half inch in several different areas, like my arms, thighs, and hips. Not huge changes, but I can see big differences in muscle tone. My arms are getting awesome. Under the flabby skin that is slowly going away, I look like I can…

A setback
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow were supposed to be my last 3 days in Phase 1, but on Wednesday afternoon I felt a slight tug in my neck that has not gone away. I took yesterday off with the hopes of doing my last workout 3 tonight, with a double of workout 4 and cardio tomorrow, however seeing as I cannot do a full neck…

Last 3 days of Weeks 1&2 start tonight!
I'm so excited to move on! I previewed the next 2 weeks the other day and I can't wait to get into them!!!
-
Cardio 1
I'm kinda getting bored with it. I really miss gold ole jumping jacks and jump rope. I HATE hot feet, and I see why other people think that brunette girl is annoying...she's way too "look at me" that entire set, not just when Jillian highlights her in circuit 3. Funny things that I have noticed though: The big guy, with…

Day 1
Just started the program today, beginning with the kickstart week, meals and all. Both workouts for the day are done, and since I've been doing JM's DVDs for a while now, Workout 1 was pretty easy. I think once I get out of the Kickstart week with 2 workouts a day, I'll push a little harder and add some of the jumps to the…
-
Kickstart meal plan
I tried it, I'm done with it. Too hard, and I feel deprived which puts me at risk of a binge. Sticking with the double workouts for the rest of the week though.
-
I got it!
My set came today and I am eager to get home and watch/preview the first few DVDs. I think I am going to do the Kickstart week with some modifications to her meal plan that goes with it. My husband will probably lose some lbs with me just by eating what I'm cooking! :laugh: I am really, really excited to take the next step…

Stretch Marks
I have some on my stomach and I want them GONE! Any products you'd recomend?

Quick question about the Jump start/ First week
Is the jump start the same as week 1, or is it in addition to? I'm getting my set this weekend, but I am too impatient to wait it out and see for myself then.

Jillian Michaels Body Revolution
Looking into buying this by the end of this month and I'm just wondering what people think of it. I love most of her DVDs already and I'm looking forward to what this program has to offer.
-
I bought it!
Just bought BR this morning! Hoping it ships quickly because I'd like to start it May 1st or so. Is each phase 4 weeks? So excited!
-
Jillian's Body Revolution
Anyone have it? Seeing good results? Is it really hard to do? Toying with the idea of getting it, but for that price I'd like to get some trusted feed-back about it on here first. Thanks!

Jillian Michaels' New DVD
Anyone get "Extreme Shed and Shred" yet? My copy is on its way from Amazon, and I'm dying to see the new ways she plans to kick our *kitten* now.
-
Jillian Michaels Killer Buns & Thighs DVD
Just discovered it on Amazon, and I love her and her stuff. Anyone have it? The reviews are 5-star overall, and I trust her stuff, but I always value the opinions of other MFPers. This is my WORST area, up top is shaping up nicely, but I cannot seem to lose these gigantic thunder thighs...hoping this will help.

Wedding anniversary
In honor of my 2nd wedding anniversary tomorrow, I thought I would take some new pics of me in my wedding dress, seeing as I have lost about 50lbs since I first wore it. It felt huge! Especially up top because that is where I have lost the most so far, or at least that you can see. (Hope this works)

Reflecting on goals
As you can see by my ticker below, I had hoped to be down to 200lbs by this Monday, my 2nd wedding anniversary. Well, not there, and I am ok with that. I am currently 215 and after losing 52lbs since mid-March, I am ok with the slower pace that I am now in. In the beginning, losing 2-5lbs a week was the norm and it was…
