Hi Everyone!

I posted in another thread that I was about to start the insanity 60 day challenge, and a few people reached out to me so I've decided to start a thread to maybe get a few people started on losing weight over the holidays instead of gaining! (Unless of course your using it to gain muscle weight)

So far I have lost 24/25 lbs in total, and my exercising has been patchy. I was loving running, but went away travelling and have since struggled with my running :S. So I decided enough was enough, I have to lose that last 26 lbs! I've seen some amazing Insanity results and can't wait for my own- but I know I need a little help on doing it everyday for 60 days! So I'm turning to the fitness pal community...

I have just completed the first Fit Test and it kicked my butt!

Anyone who wants to join in- please post below!

    Hi..., up for this thread. Just completed week 1!

    Man, even my eyelids sweat......:laugh:

    I want to loose about 20lbs and so I am using Insanity for a boost. I've lost about 25llb already through juicing and intermittent exercise. I want a strong fit body... Looking at others results is really inspiring.

    Very excited....

    Yay! 1 week! Good luck. I'm already tired thinking about tomorrow.

    I've taken my before pictures and I am now counting down the days till the one month pictures. I couldn't find a tape measure though- so I better get on the hunt.

    Insanity is such a great workout! My hubby and I have done it and are now doing Focus T25 also created by Shaun T :)

    I'm starting it again for the second time tomorrow...well the fit test is tomorrow. I completed it once before in the summer and since then I have been totally lost so decided to suck it up and do it again since I felt sane the first time....yes that's right...I felt sane doing insanity....lol

    Anyways i'm hoping that it will get my mind back on track and as much as I would like to lose another 20 lbs I just don't think my body is built for that and I just want to be stronger.

    Hi guys,

    I have lost 18lbs so far with JM extreme shed and shred and still looking to lose a further 15-20lb.

    Did start Insanity in September and completed 9 days...then went on holiday and fell off the wagon!!! Have not gained any weight back, which is great, but really feeling like I need to get back into working out. Am determined to complete the full sixty days from tomorrow!

    Good luck everyone - we can do it !! :)

    Hello! I'm new here & I'd love to join this challenge as extra motivation. I started insanity in the last week of Sept. I followed it to a T for the first month but then I get the flu. Then kids got sick, then I got sick again lol .... You get the idea! But I'd love to restart it and complete the full program!

    Definitely start again jujubar!

    I did day 2, I don't think I've ever ached this much from a workout- and I've done tonnes. I know it wont get easier but I cant wait till my body is more used to it! I wanted to avoid protein shakes etc as I don't believe in powders and stuff- but my friends swear by it after a work out so I'm going to give it a shot.

    I'm finding the nutrition plan harder to stick to- I'm just not used to eating so much food after all this dieting! But the body needs it...

    Good luck everyone! Even crossing out day 2 on my calendar felt amazing.

    Great! I'm excited & super motivated to restart tomorrow :-)
    I used to have abs & run marathons, even after my first child but I let life get in the way. No excuses anymore, Let's do this :-D
