I love Jillian Michaels workout DVD's and she has a new one coming out on March 2. It's called Yoga Meldtown and you can pre-order it at Amazon.com: Yoga Meltdown (Full Dol): Jillian Michaels: Movies & TV
"Jillian introduces a new yoga workout unlike any other. Combining hard-core yoga power poses with her dynamic training techniques, Jillian will get you real weight-loss results fast. YOGA MELTDOWN includes two complete 30-minute workouts that include a warm-up and cooldown. Begin with the Level 1 workout which focuses on quickly flowing yoga sequences to burn mega calories. Then progress to Level 2 which adds twists and balance poses for an even greater burn."
I'm a little iffy on Jillian teaching yoga, but I was wondering what all of you think?

I only hope this is true. Cause god knows this fatassed nation needs to get off its ass and do something.
I'd give this a try just because it's her and I've seen what she does.

I wish/and hope that is true but I have a close friend who has first hand experience with her and he met her girlfriend....he said that she was HOT and they weren't shy about showing each other affection.

This isn't the kind of action Jillian Michaels is used to inspiring.
The Biggest Loser's star trainer is being called a big fraud in a lawsuit claiming her diet supplements don't work as advertised.
The complaint, filed Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court by California native Christie Christensen, alleges that Jillian Michaels Maximum Strength Calorie Control, which features the fitness guru's picture and endorsement by "America's Toughest Trainer," did not help Christensen shed the pounds.
Now she wants revenge and is hoping to get class-action status, allowing others to join the fray.
In her court filing, Christensen says she didn't get the results promised on the packaging: "Two Capsules Before Main Meals and You Lose Weight...That's It!"
"Ms. Michaels knows better?taking two pills before eating does not miraculously cause weight loss," the plaintiff states.
Also named in the suit are Thin Care International and Utah-based Basic Research, the companies that produce and market the supplement, respectively.
If granted class-action status, the suit hopes to recoup unspecified damages totaling no more than $5 million to be split among those who bought the supplement.
Michaels' rep, Heidi Krupp, was unavailable for comment.
But it's worth noting that both Michaels' website and the Calorie Control packaging indicate the supplement has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. The product also does not appear for sale on NBC's Biggest Loser website.

Shame (that one can't legislate against stupid..) really because she knows her stuff about exercise.
