    The best program is the one you will stick to. If you'd stick to all of them, then the one you will enjoy the most. I'm not familiar with any of the diet plans, but a good diet plan will not require you to cut out food groups or starve yourself.

    IMO insanity or jillian michaels would probably be better for the fact that they would promote more strength gain than zumba. How did insanity work for you last year? Were you happy with the results? If so, go for it again!

    Insanity worked for me a few years ago. I found it pretty easy to stick to the diet plan and the workouts. Don't get me wrong. The workouts were INTENSE to say the least. But I really enjoyed them. I have never tried Zumba so I don't know how that would work. I'm thinking about trying Zumba for a while just to see how my body reacts to it.

    Why not try them all. I realize you are looking to stick to the meal plan that's geared to your particular workout but if you have them all, try mixing up the meals (providing they're all withing the same nutritional value) that way you would have your own customized meal plan and you may be able to substitute ingredients that you don't like.
