How am I going to eat that much food??

If you are doing Insanity and eating 1700+ a day you WILL lose weight! You will be amazed at how quickly it comes off.
Hop on Google and find some nutrient dense snacks that will help to add calories. One of my favorites is to eat avocado raw with some almonds for example. If you aren't used to eating bigger portions, then go with the less more often approach. You can eat smaller portions throughout the day. It sounds like you would be used to eating small amounts at a time with your current habits, so this might help your brain adjust to upping what you are eating everyday!
Good luck.... eat your calories and you will see the weight come off!!0 -

Thanks! This approach makes sense. I think I need foods I can eat along the way as this will help to achieve the 5x day eating that Insanity suggests. The Insanity meal plan made it look as though I'd be having to prepare 5 proper meals a day, which I can't see anyone has the time for so the idea of on-the-go nutrient dense foods seems to fit into my lifestyle much better0
