I started my Day 2 today. I always see the people that just wants to tone up or get into shape doing insanity. I never seen someone else that is my weight and height.. I was wondering if anyone else was doing it, or has done it? Any motivational words?

Age: 21 (in 7 days! :D)
Height: 5'4.5"
Weight: 209.4

    I agree with you. I weight 206.4 and am 5'4 and I am on week 3 of Jamie Eason's 12 week LiveFit trainer... I never see anyone with anywhere near my stats trying it. I'm LOVING it so far. I feel like a freakin rockstar in the gym and already feel stronger.

    Good luck! Stick to it and you'll do great!

    I haven't tried insanity, though I'd like to. I'd just like to say, GOOD FOR YOU! Don't let anything stop you, you're gonna rock it :)

    Congrats! Do you feel like you have more energy and stronger? Also were you eating under or over your calories? B.c I am afraid to start and not lose a pound and get discouraged.. b/c many people say you start losing weight during the second month.. ;/

    I am doing Insanity now and in my 4th week - inches usually go the first month and then the weight melts off the second month. I have a accountability group online if you need daily motivation and encouragement. We also focus on eating healthy too. Let me know if you want more information on this - and keep up the goo work. I have a love/hate relationship with Shaun T :)

    I do feel like I have more energy and stronger. My hubby started it as well and he has noticed a big difference in his body. I am getting discouraged, but I have so much going on right now its not to get. I hope to see a big difference in the second month. Add me as a friend, id love to keep in touch and see how we are doing, Anyone else as well.

    I say GO FOR IT! and modify as you need to. Insanity can be hard on the joints, so take it easy and I am sure you will see results if you put the work in and follow a decent nutrition plan. I am starting week 2 of month 2 tomorrow. I also did a P90X / Insanity hybrid when I was about 200 lbs.
