Half an hour six days a week. But it feels like five minutes, it's that much fun Now day 2 was 36 minutes with the cooldown and warmup and such so it's around 30 minutes each. Strength strength cardio strength strength cardio.

Day 3 done I completed cardio 1. 2mrw is wrkout 1. Soon wk 1 will be done

[Mahora]

Will complete the cardio tonight... Can't wait to get my butt kick! I was wondering... will you gals weight in every week, after each phase or at the end only? I wanted to wait at the end but don't think I can wait!

[jmfan317]

Wow, just did cardio 1! Mimi had me laughing and mimicking her moves during the last circuit run. I almost wasn't gonna do it and do a cardio in its place but I got it done! I don't think my downstairs neighbors appreciated the suicides though.

Weigh in? I wasn't going to, but I think I will on sunday. I've not been following her food plan, nor logging my food. I have changed a lot of my eating habits though so we will see where I am. I don't expect a change yet though.

See ya tomorrow!

Ok.. think i'll weigh in after each phase... Cardio 1 is the best cardio I ever had with Jillian, it's so much fun. Felt like 5 minutes to me!

I see everyone is doing great! I'm almost done with week 2 and just loving it. So far I been able to do all the moves, but the planks I need to work more on this to get stronger.

I'm planning on do my weigh in on Sundays.
How are you doing with your diets? and drinking water?

[PhillyGirl2012]

Workout 1 is done! I think I can increase the weight the next go around. I finally figured out my heart rate monitor and it says I burned 477 calories.

Muffin, my diet is ok. I'm eating mainly whole foods. I do have my snacks that are made with wholesome stuff. My fav brand is Back to Nature. I found them via the Dr Oz show. I need to work on eating more vegetables. Water is also a challenge, but I'm getting better with it.

My wife and I started this on Monday and are doing the 7 Day Metabolic blast to start with. Following the diet and doing the twice daily workout. Is anybody else doing this?

[PhillyGirl2012]

ericc, we are at different points in the program on this thread.

Group Question,
Did anyone else read this for phase 1 "The goal of Phase 1 is to remove your initial 20-30 pounds and prepare you for the intensity of Phase 2." Sooo, for those of us with weight to lose...thoughts?

[jenliz1185]

Just placed my order! So excited!

[jmfan317]

PhillyGirl I totally missed that missed that I gotta read that all I have it a total of 30 pounds to lose then if I did lose that all I wud be doin is toned up. As well as buildin muscle. My diet is goin gr8 I've been eatin 1200 cals a day with my own meal plan and journal down everythin in her 90 day journal. Just did day 5 wrkout 2 2mrw is the last day of cardio 1 this wk til nxt wk when I start wk 2

PhillyGirl, I did read that However, I don't think this apply to someone that has been eating healthy and exercising regularly. Usually when you first start a exercise plan and a diet you lose a lot of weight, but pretty much it's just water retention.

In my case I been clean eating and exercising for almost a year now, so my body is adjust to this routine. The first week I did follow her kickstart menu but only did the AM exercises, however I rode the bike pretty much everyday for added cardio and instead of losing I gain 4lbs ???

This week I went back to my normal clean eating diet with calories ranging between 1200-1300 daily and so far I have lost 8lbs. I been doing her rotation and adding 1 hour of biking daily.

[Mahora]

I have a question regarding the calories intake. I use MyFitnessPal to keep track of my calories and try to stay on a 1200 calories daily. When you say you are eating 1200 calories daily does that included your exercise? On MyFitnessPal when I train it adds on calories I can eat. For example, I start my day with 1200 if I burn 300 calories, my journal says I can eat 1500. My questions is do you eat only 1200 calories no matter how much you exercise? Thanks for the help!
