    Great job Moraima!

    Today was back and biceps, and ab ripper x. Might get in some treadmill work after the little man is in bed tonight. We will see! Can't wait for it to warm up so we can get outside!!!

    No work for me tomorrow so depending on the weather I might try to get a double cardio in. Will definitely do max cardio conditioning and will try to fit in either plyo x or kenpo I think.

    Have a great afternoon/evening ladies!

    Hello Ladies! You all are doing so great.

    Glad to see you using your HRM, Felicia. Those workouts you're doing are no joke so knowing how many calories you're burning should help you determine how many you're able to eat w/o gaining weight.

    Moraima - fabulous effort as always. You are rocking those workouts!

    Brittany - Girl you and I have already discussed how fabulous you're doing earlier today. Keep it up. You will be a rock star...I can feel it!

    Hope everyone else is having a great day!

    Hey everyone hope your enjoying your Thursday. I had Insanity Cardio Recovery (33 minutes) today and burned 200 calories which seems a little low but I guess since it's more stretching and such thats normal. Loved the stretch though may jump on the treadmill later.

    Good Job Cookie on your workouts!

    I did a nice brisk walk in the freezing cold this morning burned 384 calories doing 50 minutes of walking. Had to take a detour back into the house to get a hat! I really wish that spring would get here, and its only going to be in the 30's for another week :(

    I have been really trying to eat the protein, Still have 17 more to go for today, but I have my almonds waiting for me!

    Ok I've become even more addicted to this site! It's a good thing I don't have a facebook or I'd never leave the computer!

    Anyway, just wanted to share a couple of NSV that I'm super proud of right now!

    Number one...I just got finished with my treadmill run...and it is absolutely amazing to me how much P90X and Insanity have helped my running! I used to be able to run at a 7.5 mph pace for long distances (well up to an hour), and while I'm not quite back to that speed, I did just run a 5K on my treadmill in 29 minutes...which is awesome because I wasn't dripping in sweat and I could have kept running did I not have laundry and dishes and other misc household chores to tend to while I can before bed!!!

    Number two...I have not had to wear my knee braces or my ankle brace in over 30 days! THAT IS AMAZING! And haven't had any pain, even with that run I just did!!! YES!

    So thank you to all of you for being my support group, and a special thanks to Sharon! See you in the morning ladies!

    Insanity max cardio conditioning done! Up for another treadmill run tonight (have to wait until hubby is home because my treadmill is in my unfinished basement, plus probably not a good idea to have the little man around a treadmill anyway!

    Having a protein packed lunch after that workout and then it's a cleaning day for me!

    Hi everyone I',m in!
    My name is Aneta, I'm 5.5 and I weight 134 lb. I need to lose 14 lb. All the time I'm up and down 5 lb, I got days when I eat preatty well, but other days I eat all the time, everything I can find in the kitchen!
    I 'm pretty active, especially in a summer, I used to do P90X last year, I did 30 days and I quit, but I love this workout, my body changed so much back then! Now want to start again, but every day I keep saying tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow. So I think its time!
    Enyone who is in this program feel free to friend me.
    How many calories per day do u guys eat while doing P90X and trying to lose weight, and do you watch how many proteins, fat or sugar you eat or do u just count calories?
    Thank you!

    Hi Aneta! Welcome to the family! Brittany is doing P90X and Insanity right now and I know she probably has some great insight for you. For me, I spent years on a vicious cycle of weight loss and then regain until I figured out (through trial and error) how many calories my body needs to maintain and lose weight. It was critical for me that I figure out how to eat real foods, not boxed foods like Jenny Craig, so I could eat with my husband. Believe me, it took 5 long years to figure it out but through research I discovered the principles of clean eating and started following them. I'll say I follow this discipline about 80 - 85% of the time. I still drink wine one night on the weekend. I definitely eat a bit more on Sundays so we'll call it the day I have my "cheat meal".

    The food tracker and suggested calories in MFP have been a great guidance. I'm less religious about logging every day but mostly that's because I tend to eat the same things over and over. Is your diary public? I would be happy to review it and offer some suggestions.

    Hi Sharon
    Thank you.
    I know a lot about nutrition and how I should eat, but I dont have a will power to say no to a certain food. Thats my problem.
    I was doing so good last year when I was doing p90x, I eat really good because I was working out so hard.
    I need to start p90x again so I will get back on track.
    Dont even check my diary now, because I wasnt doing good lately , I didnt even write down everything. Give my 1 week and I will be back to life!
    Thanks guys!

    Hi Aneta, welcome!

    Brittney, great job on the accomplishments!

    Sharon, I do have the cheese, but my kids eat it all before I get to it, I have come to hide things from them hehe
    I tried making the turkey meatballs today, had them with some diced tomatoes. noticed the tomatoes had 2 gr of protein too. very tasty with the two of the things together, almost like a meatball soup lol

    I did a quick HIIT today, did double duty yesterday, walking and CHE :) and bought myself 15 lb weights yesterday!!

    Hope everyone has a great weekend!

    Did P90X Plyo this morning! I like it but don't feel like I get as good of a burn as I do from the insanity workouts. But it's good to change things up since there are different moves in there! Hate the rockstar jumps! Will try to get in another workout at some point today!

    Yesterday I decided to start blogging. I was going to just do it on this site, but have decided to start it on a blog site instead. The link is in my profile if anyone wants to read about my trials and tribulations with insanity and p90x and the struggle to get to goal weight!

    Ladies! How are you all today? CLX day...Push Circuit 3 (chest, back, glutes) and then thew in Turbo Fire Abs 10 to work my core.

    Welcome Harmony! What exercise dvds are you using? 17lbs in 3 months is fantastic!!!! Those last 3 should be easy-peasy (LOL)! I'm so happy to have you join us. Look forward to chatting with you more! I will definitely friend you.

    Brit - I am going to check out your blog. WTG on today's workout and on sharing your story with others!

    Chrissie - I LOVE turkey meatballs!!!!!! Yours sound yummy! Do your kids eat them too like they do with the cheese??? That's pretty funny! Lean protein sources are the name of the game so whatever ones you enjoy you should feel free to eat any time...even better if you eat protein with your morning/afternoon snack to keep you full longer!

    Aneta - I hear you about feeling out of control with your eating. That's when I know I need to come back to the fold. We're here for you so ask any questions you might have as you begin to "right the ship"!

    Hope everyone else is pushing play and having a great Saturday. Off to run some more errands! Talk to you guys later.
