  • Hello,
    I'm starting Insanity tomorrow. When I was 200lbs 5' 4" I was wicked upset with myself. I did P90X and watched my diet and did extra running. I lost 58 lbs! I was 143lbs just intime for my wedding. i'm back up to 174lbs now and INsanity is alot of cardio so if P90X did that to me I could only imagin what Insanity can do. Just remember to dig deep!!! You can do it! :)

    Hi all,

    My stats:

    Female
    31
    5'4"
    a whopping 199lbs!

    I started insanity today and let me tell you I was sweating buckets from the fit test. I'm trying to lose 50lbs total (hopefully before my 31st birthday in May) and I'm going on a cruise next month so I'd like to kick some lbs off before that.

    I used to work in the ER, so I was on my feet all day. Now I have a desk job and have gained like 15-20 lbs in 6 months! The plus side is now I'm doing 8hr days (instead of 12) so I actually have time to work out.

    Anyone want to be my virtual workout partner?:-)

    I have done it and LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the results, I only lost about 6kgs (12lbs) all in total but I totally went down 2 dress sizes, I'm starting again today but I'm going to do it 3 times a week. I want it to be a little more sustainable and it's a work out I really enjoy. So GOOD LUCK:drinker:

    Add me if you like :smile:

    The couple of lbs I lost within the first week is back, feeling kind of discouraged :-( but know that I have to stick with it.

    just finished day 4 and im drenched in sweat...such a good work out but I worry sometimes that I wont see ANY results (just my luck!) but I figure...what are the odds of every single other person seeing results and not me??, so i'm going to stick with it :D
    just got to wait and see I guess..
  • Yes, just stick with it! I have done Insanity a few times and always see results. Keep in mind you will probably gain weight because you are gaining muscle and shredding fat. What you should be looking at is your measurements and just overall body tone. Take pictures and compare them to help you keep motivated. :) Good luck!

    Looking for a workout partner! I have done one round, lost 50 lbs and 12.5 inches and was back down to pre-pregnancy weight of 140.. Unfortunately I did not do maintenance and have gotten sedentary again and am back to 195 (27y.o., 5'4"). I need to lose at least 50 again by summer for my wedding but ultimate goal is 60 lbs. I'm not going to quit after 60 days this time though.
