I started on the 6th.
The first day I wanted to quit at breakfast already, stupid calorie counting. No wonder all the athletic fitness instructors are buffed and chiseled; they all have personal chef's!!! Now after two and a half weeks I'm loving it! even the calorie counting bit.
Is anyone thinking of repeating the first month again; before jumping into second month? I read some posts from other people saying that month two doesn't give same (or better) results as the first month.0 -

That's probably because the first month is so new to your body it doesn't know how to react other than to shed weight/inches. By the second month, your body knows what to expect even though month 2 is harder. I'm moving onto month 2 most likely. I'm looking forward to it!0 -
I hope so. I start recovery week on monday and then its onto month 2! That's going to be a butt kicker.
Has anyone experienced long-lasting muscle soreness "muscle fever", A few times after the intense workouts (pure cardio & power & resistance) I've experienced this. Someone told me to take glutamine? Has or is anyone taking this supplement?
Thanks in advance!0 -
The first couple weeks I was sore. Especially in my calves. But I don't really get sore now. I didn't take anything for it. All you can really do for muscle soreness is stretch, ice/heat pads, and time.0

I actually haven't lost any weight through the first month, I have actually gained 2 lbs and I have about 5 days left until recovery week. I've heard that most loss the weight / inches in the second month.. anyways good luck to everyone Remember to keep pushing play!0 -
Put me in the "gained 2 pounds club" so far. I initially gained 2 pounds the first few days, then lost it, but don't worry cuz I found it again. I did the fitness test at the beginning of the third week though and was impressed with how much my stamina has improved and had lost 2 inches each off my waist, hips, and thighs. So, I guess that's something. I just wish the stupid scale would move.
I seriously have no idea how many calories I should be eating with this program either. I've been eating 1300 and trying not to eat all my exercise calories back, but some days I can't help but eat some back because I'm so HUNGRY! Anyone have input on the calories? I'm 5'0" and am at 131 pounds.0 -

I'm actually in the same boat also. I haven't gained but I haven't lost anything either. My wife and I were a week behind getting measurements so we'll see tomorrow if we've lost any inches. As far as weight though, haven't lost anything in the 3 weeks we've been doing insanity. I'm hoping month 2 results are better for me than month 1. I've been chalking it up to me not having a whole lot left to lose...hoping month 2 will break through that.0 -
Started month two and did Max Interval Circuit. I thought the first month was hard, man I didn't know what was ahead of me. That workout is brutal. I have a feeling it's going to be a tough month, hopefully it'll be worth it. lol0

I lost 3lbs in the first month and lost about 5 inches. Did the max interval circuit and my shoulders almost gave up at the end. Had to do plank punches on my knees. Hoping to see more results and good luck to everyone with the second month!0

Anybody from the 8-13 group finish this week? I didn't lose inches but am leaner. It feels good to have finished and am ready to move onto something else.0
