P90X and running too much?

I just started week three of P90X Classic. I've been following the program schedule, with the exception of switching out Yoga for other workouts. I do P90X is the morning and then at night I run for about an hour with my husband. I'll burn anywhere from 220-380 calories during my morning workouts and then another 500-800 at night, depending on how hard/long we run.

Am I doing too much or is this more like P90x Doubles?

I eat about 1200-1600 calories a day, consisting of oatmeal, salad, hummus, fresh fruit, soy milk, nuts, etc. I'm not ravenously hungry like I thought I would be nor do I feel exhausted like my body needs more fuel. I am gaining muscle mass already, but my weight is staying pretty constant. But this may be attributed to be cheat meals turning into cheat weekends lately...

    Yeah, I'd look more into the cheat weekends as the culprit :/

    Too much for what? If you are doing it to be fit and get ripped, stick with it! It doesn't look like you are doing it to lose weight, so that should not be a factor. Just avoid injury.
