How much are you guys eating with insanity? I'm 5'4 and 134lbs. I have no idea how many calories i'm supposed to be taking in. I don't want to crash and burn but I think i'll have a hard time eating like 1800+ calories. I'm burning about 400 calories with each workout.

And tips?

    I burn bout 250-300 per insanity workout....
    If I carry on jogging every other day I burn bout 300 per 30 mins of jogging.

    I generally eat between 1900-2100 calories. I use the calculation that came with the workout.

    I was eating about 1900 cals, but I just cut back to 1650 because I was not loosing. I'm about 5'2 and 240lbs I burn about close to 350 (some times more and it depends on the work out) almost every work out! I do like loosing inches, but I would love to actually loose some weight on the scale!!!
