    I guess you don't see a difference because you are just looking at you...and we are our own worst critics.

    The differences are totally evident and I wish you could see what we see.

    Who cares about the scale??? You are obviously changing your body composition, and as long as you are doing that, that's what matters. Especially at first, cause with all the strength + cardio moves in Insanity, you are building up lean muscle which weighs a lot compared to the same amount of fat.

    Keep up the great work!

    I totally agree with what she says here. We are our own worst critic. With that said it is also normal for people to not lose weight during the first month. I'm a guy and guys usually lose faster then women. I didn't drop a pound until Phase 2. Then I dropped 13 lbs. in a month. You can do it, don't look at the number on the scale. Judge by your measurements, and how your clothes fit.

    You didn't put the weight on over night, it's not coming to come off that way either.

    Oh and you totally can see the difference in your pics...

    DEFINITELY can see a difference! Congrats on what you have already accomplished. I have completed 2 rounds of Insanity and found I lost most of my weight in the second month of the workouts. However, measurements are so much more important than what the scale says and the pictures will prove that as well. Keep taking the pictures and you will see the difference!

    Thank you everyone for your kind words. I'm hoping by day 63 I will be able to see a difference in myself. I really love insanity, and plan to do a second round or try out P90X. I try not to focus on the scale, but the number glaring back at me is just so much larger than it used to be and I'm not going to lie, it gets depressing when it doesn't budge. But thank you again! I will update in another month with new pics!

    I can totally see the difference on the shape of your abs. I am on the week 3 of insanity, haven't dropped a pound yet. I am with you on the frustration part. I read that people start lossing weight on the second month. My friend dropped 13 lbs in 60 days. So keep going, we will get there.

    By the way, I am not doing the diet. I heard people who are on the diet see result way quicker.

    DEFINITELY see a difference! You don't see a difference because you see yourself multiple times a day! Be honest, home many times do you look in the mirror trying to see a difference? I do ALL the time. Pictures are the best proof.

    You can see such a great difference in those photos. You look awesome. I don't know how Insanity works compared to P90X, but I am doing the P90X program. If you watch the infomercials for P90X, they show you real people do did the program and their results from Day 0, Day 30, Day 60 and Day 90. You can see small changes each month, but a fantastic change by the end of the program. You can do this! If you have 50 pounds to lose, maybe you do the program twice. I saw a guy on a P90X infomercial who used the program 3 or 4 times to lose all the weight he wanted.
