    Hi, im Nati. I wouldnt pay much attention to the scale while doing insanity. that workout is meant to torch body fat and build lean muscle. its why you can see the difference in inches but you haven't lost much weight with it. You should just monitor your body fat percentage. im sure you will be delighted seeing those numbers going down =D

    Hello! You can add me if you like! I am trying to meet more people too! I have been on MFP for 24 days and have been doing great so far but there are always days that you get frustrated and want to quit. I give props to you for doing insanity, I own it but can't do it yet. Maybe when I loose a little more weight. I have always yo yo dieted too. Even worse I own so many workout videos and pieces of equipment I should be a size 2. All the motivation it took for me this time was my doctor telling me he was going to put diabetic in my chart after another blood draw. I don't think so!!! He told me on the 1st and I started MFP on the 2nd. I think almost everyone does better with encouragement and accountablility!!

    Hey everyone! I just started with MFP yesterday. I have been doing weight watchers for a little over a year now. I lost about 60 lbs with WW but I have about 25 more lbs to go. I hit a plateau several months ago, so I thought I would try something a little different. Please feel free to add me to your friends list!
