So I just wanted to post today that today was my final day of doing (on my own) of the program INSANITY! 2 yrs ago I bought this program through their website and it ended up sitting in my closet for 2 yrs. After 2 back to back pregnancies that reeked havoc on my body...continuing on a downward spiral of unhealthy eating because it was alot easier to do fast food than cook considering I had 2 babies under 2! Topping out at my heaviest at 260lbs and going to the hospital on 2 different occasions it was time for a change. I needed to become a healthier version of myself for the sake not only myself but for my family. Finding out that I was gluten intolerant helped out in the beginning because it taught me how to cook again...but in a healthy way. And I started slowly exercising building my endurance up. I then dug the Insanity box out the closet (which had 5in of dust on it) I just jumped right it. OH BOY WHAT AM I GETTING MYSELF INTO was my thought doing just the fit test for the first time. But I kept looking at the pictures of my children hanging behind me every day that I pushed play...that was my motivation to keep going!! I did have a set back starting month 2 by coming down with the flu..that killed all my motivation..so everything came to a halt...I started going back to old habits and finally after I gained 8 pounds back I said ENOUGH..I started again with my fitness pal and started exercising again to build my endurance...until the day came 63 days ago to push play. And I haven't stopped since!! I weighed 260lbs when I started my journey and now I weigh 179lbs!! And my journey will never be over because I have a new found love for working out and eating healthy and will continue on my journey forever.

Thank you for reading my post and I hope I inspired someone today

    That's awesome! I've done Insanity in the past and just today started 21 Day Fix Extreme. I'm not interested in Shako, though. My Sunwarrior Clasic Raw Vegan shakes work out better for my nutritional needs.
