Hey guys! I'm 3 weeks into insanity and feel better already. Wasn't sure if i should believe all the hype about the amazing weight loss it claims to produce. I've seen tons of befores and afters but i'm curious, has anyone done Insanity without following the meal plan?
I'm allergic to a few things but they're in everything like eggs, gluten, wheat and yeast. The breakfast is all eggs so it's impossible for me to do it. I've been following my own routine for food but i wanna know if the given nutrition is what really set off your weight loss.
Thanks guys and good luck to everyone!

I'm 25 too!!! I'm right there with you, Plyo kicked my *kitten*. I did Cardio Power today and it ALSO kicked my butt. A few of my friends have told me that I have to give it some time and I will start to see results. you know, DIG DEEP and all that. I'm very excited, and trying to keep my spirits up and not get discouraged.

I, I'm Mary. I'm 44 and have recently started Insanity. I did day 9 today. What made me choose Insanity? I've recently lost 50 pounds and have 30 more to lose, but have plateaued. I haven't lost anything, pounds or inches, in the last 6 weeks. It's time for something major, and Insanity is about as major as I can think of. I've survived the first week, but boy does this workout make me feel old while I'm doing it.

Hi everyone! I'm Mandy. I am 31 and have 3 kids ages 7, 5 and 2. I am desperately needing to drop like 40-50 pounds! I am starting Insanity on Monday and am SCARED TO DEATH of it after watching part of the first workout! lol.

Hi everyone. My name is Leilanie im 27 and I'm from California. I have struggled with weight most of my adult life. Always went up and down due to pregnancies and jus not eating right or being active. I finally decided to take it seriously now. I am on a 1600 a day calorie diet and I'm on my 3rd week of insanity. I have lost 6lbs so far. I haven't weighed myself in a week because I wuz getting into a bad habit of doing it everyday and when I didn't c results I would get discouraged. My goal weight is 130-135. I currently weigh 160 now. I am confident that sticking with this diet and continuing the insanity and support from all input there I will reach my goal weight! :-)

Hello everyone, my name is Shamika. I am 22 years old and I currently reside in Texas. I started Insanity on Sunday, August 12, 2012 against the recommended plan in order to give myself Saturdays off versus Sundays. I have lost 31 pounds on my own and now I am seeking to drop an additional 10 pounds while toning and building muscle and strength. With the exceptions of a few cheat indulgences on the weekend, my eating habits are pretty clean. I look forward to collaborating with others during this adventure as well as suggestions on good meal choices. DIG DEEPER!!!

Hey all! I'm Christina from florida:) started the insanity workouts a week ago and omg talk about intense...anyway i love the challenge so i am completely addicted now:) anyway would love to meet new fitness buddies so feel free to add me!

Hey!

My name is Brittanie and I just finished day 8 of Insanity. I've never been able to stick with a work out plan. The most I did was almost 2 weeks of p90x. This time it feels different! I really push myself with insanity, and I'm trying so hard with eating cleaner and smarter. I just would LOVE some friend requests for encouragement with insanity, or dieting, just this journey in general. I lost 13 lbs last year with weight watchers and some zumba, but this year it's time to shed the rest of my extra poundage and get more toned where i want it (stomach, legs, buttocks).

Thanks in advance for your encouragement, let's be fitness pals!

Hi, I'm Alex Fittin. I am 22 years old and just got married in June. I started INSANITY to look better in my wedding dress a few months ago and have gained everything back post-wedding . I am starting over with attempts to drop 32 pounds and 2 sizes. I'm not interested in being a sickly-looking skinny girl, but am VERY interested in getting FIT! I am not following the meal plan exactly because I am weird and don't like very many vegitables but I am cooking mainly healthy meals that I can find calorie counts on and trying to be dedicated to balancing my diet. Good luck out there!

Hi everyone, my name is Rindi. My best friend, Brooke and I started Insanity two days ago, and let me tell you...we LOVE it! It is very intense, and by know means can we make it through the whole workout. We barely made it through the fit test, but I am bound and determined to lose 15 pounds or more.

I am 28, from Oklahoma, a wife, and mother to two beautiful daughters. I have gained about 20 pounds since I have had them, and I am miserable. I hate that when I put something on in the morning, I always second guess myself. But I am turning over a new leaf with My FitnessPal and Insanity! I am so excited to finally be where I want to be.

I would love to make new friends! So friend me so we can keep track of each other's progress and encourage each other to keep it up!

Hello everyone,

My name is Eliana and I am nearing the end of my first week of month 2 of Insanity. I haven't had great success with it on the scale, however, my body has definitely gotten smaller.. yay! I hope to complete 2 rounds of Insanity, followed by one round of Brazil Butt Lift and then continue on with a hybrid of Insanity and P90X. I know it doesn't seem like I want to lose a lot but a few lbs are a lot on a small frame.

Anyhow, good luck to all!!

Hi, my name is Crystal and my husband and I have started the Insanity workout today...got our fit test out of the way. I started the workout about 3 months ago and got half way through when I just fell off completely. I started off by skipping one day, then two then just stopped all together. I have been on fitness pal for about a year now but I really want to take advantage of it this time around and get all the support I can get! I'm not very good at sticking to something for more than a month, I get bored easily! So, please feel free to friend me and we can help each other out The first month that I did finish, I did not lose too much weight but I did go down 2 pant sizes so I lost inches...I think I just got comfortable with that and that's another reason I stopped but I am not where I want to be yet. So here I go again, but this time hoping and being confident that I can finish the program this time- I know it will be a great help having a support team on here and having a workout buddy also. Thanks!! Good luck everyone

This is my 2nd round. I miss Insanity and the high I get from the work out so I'm going to do month 1 again.

Hi Everyone , My name is Danielle I am 33 from Long Island NY , and I'm on day 5 of Insanity . My finance and I are doing this to get in better shape for our upcoming wedding. I don't think I could do this without him and I commend those who are doing this alone. That's dedication. We have been trying to follow the meal plan the best we can . What is everyone putting in for the exercise log ? I looked up insanity and nothing comes up. Should we start Shakeology ? Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated. Tonight is our first day of Pure Cardio and I'm scared LOL . Wish us luck !!!

Shakeology is a great product. It might be expensive but I have yet to find another protein shake that compares in taste. I have a shake in the morning and it keeps me full through to lunch. It's improved my body's ability to process foods and I can rely on it when I have a "bad" day the previous day. Two shakes the next day and I feel back on track.
