    Week 1 Day 1 month 2 IM30. Love this workout even though it is hard. So glad it is only 30 minutes.

    What's the difference between the insanities? A friend of mine let me borrow her max 30 and I was done within the first 3 minutes of working out. It was too intense for me. Especially just starting to work out again. Are there easier versions? I been thinking of getting the T25.

    Max 30 is great and I love it. You stop when you absolutely need to and they have a modifier available. I burn over 300 calories each day ( I use a HRM) and use the modifier if I need to.

    Another one here :) Will be doing day 3 of Month 2 tonight.... Bit worried that I don't seem to be getting very good results though, compared to some of the pics posted here - no weight loss to speak of and although my clothes are fitting better, according to the tape measure there is nothing different in my measurements either, so I don't really understand where the changes are occurring... :( I'm just weird I think!

    As well as Insanity I cycle about 6 miles a day and horseride once a week for an hour (ironically that's on our "rest" day from Insanity!).

    I'm on 1600 calories - I'm wondering whether I should be going up or down with that, although it's less than the "insanitized" calorie calculation...... but still need a deficit??

    Exercise Question: I have been doing Leslie Sansone party hits with high intensity interval training in it and I have been recording this as 30 minutes low impact aerobics. I have searched internet to see if I could find out EXACTLY how many calories I am burning since low impact gives me 207. I think this exercise is more. Anyone have any thoughts?

    I started last night. Kind of excited. Kind of terrified. It looks really intense.

    today was tough. allergies. :s pushed through, but I felt like I had a heavy, wet, hot, itchy blanket wrapped around my head. I know I'm in the minority here, but...I'm ready for the snow to come back. I'm not allergic to that. :(

    I just started Insanity yesterday. It's tough and I am no where near doing it in good form or all the way through...yet...but oddly enough I do like it. I've had the dvd's for 2 years and was too afraid to try it. I finally decided I needed to push myself. Hoping for great results.

    I started the original insanity yesterday. I haven't worked out since I got pregnant 3 years ago, so I'm looking forward to getting back into the swing of things. I felt great after day 2, but it is hard, which it should be!

    I started the original Insanity on Monday. I never work out, apart from the odd jog here and there, and I'm finding it really, really tough. I done Cardio Power Resistance today and just couldn't get into position fast enough. By the time I managed to get down into push up position they were onto something else! Did anyone else experience this? I just don't know how I will improve if I can't even keep up with the exercises

    so, I'm playing Bloodborne yesterday (finally beat that damn "Cleric Beast"!)...and I have a sneezing fit! I roll forward on one and feel a "pop" in my right oblique! well, that hurt. doing "relief" today was bliss. made the sore spot feel good. I may hit it again after work, before my "night out with old friends". despite a pain in my side, I slept better too. I can breath again. stupid allergies. all the dumb things I've done...and I get hurt sneezing?

    Wow!!! You guys are getting such good result! I am doing Insanity Max30 Month 2 workout, number is not dropping. Maybe I was doing real bad in watching my diet, been eating a lot these two weeks.

    Do you all feel an increase in appetite since started working out?

    No actually I had a hard time consuming all the food suggested. I decided to follow the meal plan because I wanted to have the right fuel for my body to complete the workouts. So, by eating every 2.5-3 hours, I never feel hungry and am always satisfied.

    I have food cravings all the time, especially for food that is high in sugar content. And i eat every 2 hourly, sometimes even shorter interval. People see me with food all the time. LOL

    @xjshinoda is your food diary open? You need to find the right power foods that will keep you full. Try having some nuts. Also try drinking tea- preferably green- that's helped with my cravings a lot..
