Hello everyone my insanity is on its way. Just a few questions on food/nutrition. can you really eat the calories he says to and not gain 400 lbs?
I only eat about 1000 right now, will that enough? I am looking to loose about 15 lbs. thanks for input!

    I dunno. I always use my HRM when I do Insanity. I try to eat back as much of my exercise calories back plus my allotted calories. I try to keep net calories at the max amount I can without going over. It has worked. Lost about15 inches all around. Best of luck to you.

    1000 is way too low. You should figure out your BMR, eat that as a minimum, and then eat back your exercise calories. Otherwise, you will not have the energy for the workouts and may even get sick or gain weight due to starvation mode.
