For me the biggest challenge is not going over my calorie goal. The problem is not that my calorie goal is low. I
eat 1450 average a day and I eat ALL my calories back that I burn from exercising.

Until now I managed to keep up. I think I also need some time to adjust. Was doing Weight Watchers and just
switched over to MFP 3 weeks ago. Have not regretted since.

What are your challenges?

    Mine is portion control, I always eat whatevers on my plate, so if its a tupperware full of leftovers, guess what, it's all getting eaten.

    As for Insanity, I'm in the 3rd week, and I know the routines now, so monotony is my problem. Glad it changes in week 5, or else I wouldn't be able to do it. I think that's why 30 day shred or most of Jillian Micheals workouts never worked for me

    I also like the element of surprise when doing a video so doing 3 sets of the same thing in a hard workout video like this gets to be boring and makes me not want to do it.

    As far as calories go I haven't been tracking my burns so I eat a flat 1700 every day even if I don't workout. I figured then at least my body knows what to expect.

    mine is eating enough calories and hitting my protein goal. I am really struggling because I am not that hungry and eating the recommended 1800 calories is hard for me.

    Getting through the warmups. They are without a doubt the hardest part of each workout for me because I know what's coming and what I have left to do and I'm so bored of them at this point. I'm also doing an extra week of month 1, so whereas I'd be getting a break at this point from them with the recovery week, I'm doing the same workouts again with the same exact warmups.
