    I have been doing Insanity since Januray and no, I do not follow the eating plan. I have gotten some ideas out of the book, but I follow my own eating plan.....HTH's!

    Hi. I just restarted p90x again yesterday. Ouch and only did 40 min!!! I think I might try the diet again too. When I did it a year ago I did do the diet but only stuck with it for about two weeks ( but for me that is the longest ever). It is kind of a lot of work and a lot of food but I enjoyed it. I would say try it. The food is good and you definitely won't be hungry! It is a little difficult if you have a family to cook for and you are cooking separate food though.

    Yes, I usually follow the diet for a couple of weeks. Once I have the hang of how to eat and what types of food to eat, I then tailor the diet to my own food likes. Insanity offers different food choices as well, for example instead of cottage cheese you can substitute low fat plain yogurt. The P90X diet is different from the Insanity nutrition guide as it gives specific meals to eat and follow. I like Insanity's better because you have choices.
