I think people should post progress pics to show how Insanity is helping them improve. You could post a "before" photo and an "after" photo when you finish the 1st and 2nd month.

I'll try and take a photo tomorrow before my fitness test. I don't take underwear or bikini pics but I can take a picture in my tank top and spandex pants. Lol!

    I agree that this will be a great idea! I think actually seeing others make progress will help motivate others to push themselves a little bit harder then they thought they could with their workouts.

    And for those that don't like the idea of even taking pics or posting them...at least take them for yourself!

    When I did P90X I took before pics and was so embarrassed by them. But at the end of 30 days, I took them again and you could really see the difference it had made. Talk about motivation!! When you see yourself in the mirror every day you don't always see those changes. But comparing pics is the best way to really see those results. Makes all the hard work worth it!

    Yes I am dreading taking pics and have put it off...but I need to do it so I can see for myself the difference I am making!

    I took the dreaded Day 1 pics yesterday and made them the screensaver on my laptop. Wow that is embarrassing, but a great reminder of what I want to change about myself.

    You are definitely right, if you don't want to post them at least take them for yourself. I am terrified to post my Day 1 pic right now, but hopefully at Day 30 I will change my mind and just post it lol

    I took the Day 1 pics right after I did the fit test. It's horrible but you know what? It's motivating. I created an instagram to post my progress and meals along the way. Feel free to add! username:vannalosingfat

    I would have to agree with the others to take pictures for yourself if nothing else. Also take your measurements. That is really important to do. Sometimes with programs like these you don't notice weight loss right away but you should at least see improvements in your inches.

    I joined this group a little late and am sad I didn't find it earlier!!!


    OKay I tried to post my progress pics. but I can't...

    I just finished month one (on day 5 month 2).

    Month one-- lost 10 lbs and dropped a bra size, a pant size (and a half), and a shirt size :)

    okay. I have no idea how to post a picture. so sorry for the repeat but i don't know how to delete a post haha.

    Thanks for the support :) GOOD LUCK! If I can do it anyone can do it. I did my first squat EVER about a month before I started insanity.

    From a SQUAT to THAT?! Well done. You've definitely inspired me to do it even when it hurts.

    Wow, great job!! How many pounds have you lost or have you just lost inches? I can see a big difference in your stomach area. That is my biggest problem area so I hope I get the same results.

    have not lost pounds, but inches. I do measurements on Friday so I will know then how much! Good luck!
