Hi! Im a SHAM to a lovely 2 year old and 8 month old. Im just getting back into mfp and working out. I want to loose a minimum of 20 lbs but ideally 30. Insanity seemed like a good workout to try as I really like pushing myself. Im a few days in and its really kicking my butt! I was wondering if other moms had used it and did you enjoy it or see the results you were hoping for? Also feel free to add me as a friend, I love seeing what others are doing and encouraging them on their journey!

    I actually used it right before I was pregnant and dropped 20 pounds in 1 month. They call it insanity for a reason! I have done tons of different circuit workouts and classes and quite honestly nothing compares. I just recently started doing T-25 since I have a 5 month at home and can't dedicate the full hour to Insanity. Totally worth the time and money though :)

    That's one of my issues, I get 45 min in and someone wakes up from their nap. I figure something is better than nothing at least.

    Hi I'm new to the group and I'm doing both T 25 and Insanity. Also walking because I can't get this weight off. My goal is drop 30 pounds by June 14. We are going on vacation.

    Hi I'm new to this group and doing T25 for the 2nd time and love it. Get results in short time. Fell off the wagon last time and didn't finish but not this time! Only 25 mins!!!

    I'm very interested in the T25 as insanity time wise is a bit of a challenge. How do they compare?

    Im a mother of 2 under 2 so I completely understand not always having 45 mins to workout.

    I did insanity before I was pregnant with decent results. I tried doing it again after having the babies but I don't always have time to do a full workout. So I don't feel I am getting the full potential out of it now.

    I started doing this 30 day challenge that seems to be pretty good. You can find it at TheBettyRocker.com or Betty Rocker on Facebook. She of course tries to sell you the meal plan but you can opt out (which I opted out of) and the workouts are (free) emailed to you everyday. They are 15 mins long so you can do them 2 or 3 times if you want or if you only have 15 mins to fit a work out in you can. I am 5 days in and some workouts she will kick your butt. Just something to look into.

    I just ordered it today and I plan to start this coming Monday if it arrives by then! Right now I'm doing a mix of Jillian Michaels. I, too have about 20-30 pounds to lose!
