Insanity Calories burned

I have just started doing the insanity workouts. I have yet to purchase a heart rate monitor and was wondering how I should calculate how many calories I burned. I didn't know if the heart rate monitor would even help in this task? Does anyone know if there is a way to calculate calories burned without the monitor and if the monitor will even help in this calculation.

    You will probably burn between 300 and 800 calories/workout but will depend on your age, weight, gender, intensity, current fitness level, your V02 Max, etc.

    Until you get a HRM I would enter the workouts as "aerobic, high impact" to get an estimate of calories burned.
