I'm so excited to get INSANITY started. I have been trying to lose weight for a while now with no luck but that will turn around once I get started in the workout program. I have seen so many reviews and youtube videos on INSANITY and have seem nothing but great reviews.

Hi everyone. I'm Anna from London, Uk.
I tried Insanity once and thought it was too hard, but since then I've done P90X and Turbofire, so I think I should be fitter now.
I can't start on the 1st of Jan as its my birthday, but I will start when the hangover is gone :laugh: probably the 3rd! I really need to get back to losing weight again. I've slacked off much too much in the last few months.
Good luck to you all :flowerforyou:0 -
I have been doing Insanity on and off throughout the past year, but never consecutively because I just had a copy from a friend. I would throw it in whenever I felt like doing it, but have mostly been doing TurboFire (LOVE!), a little bit of running, and a little bit of P90X. We bought the whole Insanity program for Christmas and I'm excited to get started (well, technically my husband and I started yesterday). The meal plan is amazing! It's the first one I've looked at without cringing at half of the stuff in it...all of it looks SO good! I just had a baby so hopefully this will get that extra baby weight off quickly!0

Hey!! My name is Abby and I also got Insanity for xmas...and was planning on starting on the 1st anyway so why not join a group. I recently finished p90x and I also run. I will not be following the program exactly. Most likely I will be doing it only 4 days a week and running 3 days a week. But I would still love to join!!!
Oh I have about 10-15 more lbs to lose!0 -
Hi Group!
My name is Julia! This is my 2nd time "restarting" Insanity. I stopped on the half way through my 1st round Although I did not finish my first round of Insanity, I saw great results in just few weeks. I've lost 8 lbs in 2 weeks and all i did was just push "play". So... I know for SURE it works
This is actually my 2nd day... But I will be glad to do over my first week on 1/1/2012 .. so we can do this together!!!
Goal: lose 25 lbs
Current Weight: 139
Height: 5'6"

Hi my name is Shanna! I will be starting Insanity Round 2 on the 2nd of January with one of my close friends. I did a round last spring and lost 15 pounds but after my vacation to Costa Rica last June I quit working out and ate and drank whateva I wanted and gained it back.....So this time I am starting over and have been working out consistently for 2 months doing Heavy Weights 3 times a week and Zumba 2 times a week along with walking on my breaks. One thing I do remember last time I did Insanity was that I was starving and eating all the time and still losing weight! So I am excited to start but dreading the 5 am sessions.
Todays weight: 152
Starting BF%: 29.6
Goal: Loose 10 inches total and body fat % down to at least 22% this round0 -
Hi my name is Nicole (aka Summer).
I just got Insanity as a present. I have been doing various Jillian Michaels workouts for the last 3 months so I'm hoping I will be fit enough to keep up. I will be out of town for the holiday weekend so my start date will likely be the 3rd of January.0 -
I bought insanity 3 months ago and watched the fit test...decided i was not ready yet...since then i have done JM shred in 30 and am currently finishing ripped in 30...i run10k s/cycle/spin/swim have done 2 triathlons and 3 half marathons-- so I am pretty fit but am still a little scared to start this.
I have lost 22 pounds in the past 98 days and am working on my last 15 pounds
i am 5'6' and weigh 166 today.
my goal weight is 151
i love strength work and the shapely muscles that come from that...so my goal is NOT to be bony...just strong, firm, and not round in the middle.
I am a mother of 5 yr old twins (CUATES means twins in Spanish; so I am cuatesmom on here) who were proudly breast fed till age 3.5 so I have not been in a huge hurry to lose the momma weight...but I have begun that journey now.
assuming i get over my current bout of the flu i will start INSANITY on 1/1/12 .
best of luck to all of us!0 -
count me in please????0

I would like to join in the group, I also got insanity as Christmas present0

I also got half way through Insanity the first time. I did notice a difference in my tone, however when it jumped to phase 2, I had trouble staying with it because the programs were longer. Perhaps I will do better this time :-)0

Hey All,
My name is Jennifer. I am 24 years old. A momma to three wonderful girls 2, 4, 7. They keep me busy. I also work full time. I have an amazing husband. We are going to be doing Insanity together!
I am starting Insanity again on Monday 1-2. I got through almost the whole first month back in September and I had a lot of set backs. I am now ready to start over!
Feel free to add me!

Good Afternoon all. My name is Sheri, I've had the insanity program for about 2 years thanks to my son in the military who gave it to me. It's time now I begin the program and will work to figure out how to pull it up and get it started on my laptop :-/ At 45 I don't think it is ever too late to begin anything. I am also gearing up to return to running, I've picked up the proper shoe today for my Plantar Fasciitis issues and ready to just DO THIS and see what happens. :-) I am not a dieter, only a healthier lifestyle changer for this girl. I'd love all the assistance, pointers and info I can get to make it through each program. Looking forward to a new me.0

Hi everyone,
My name is Saira. I'm from Richmond, VA and have been doing TurboFire for the last 5 months. I am 27 and packed on a lot of 'grieving' weight after my father's death. I was NOT motivated when I started TurboFire but somehow got into it after the first HIIT workout. Since then, my life has changed completely and I'm forever grateful to Chalene and TurboFire for that! I am hoping TurboFire has prepared me for Insanity because it seems my body needs a shock.
I'm looking forward to doing this program with all of you!0 -
Hey! My name is Theresa and I started Insanity yesterday instead of Sunday. I started it once already in October but I only made it about half way through because I decided to start running and do C25K. It's a new year though and I wanted to start Insanity again and actually stick to it completely! I'm ready to do this!0

Hi everyone! My name is Stephanie and I'm 26, 5'8" and 148 (recently gained almost 10 lbs over the last few months and holidays - not happy!) and I am trying to lose weight because I'm getting married in May (and I need to lose it in general). I've always loved working out, but I also love good food so it's been a challenge keeping my weight down. I started using myfitnesspal to log my calories, and I think this is going to help me keep perspective when eating "the good food."
I am starting Insanity next week, currently doing Turbofire and just waiting for Insanity to arrive - I've heard great things and I can't wait to try it!! My goal is to lose 15 lbs before my last dress fitting, so that gives me about 4 months. It will be a challenge but definitely achievable if I put my mind to it.
I look forward this experience with all of you!0 -
I haven't bought it yet but I have wanted it since I heard about it, A couple of my friends did it last semester at school and they look so much better even after just one semester of school. I am going to go purchase it now! I am not really good at staying with things and am lazy when it comes to getting up. As I am typing this I was napping from 420-530 and and watching NCIS instead of going to the gym, or even to the store to return my moms Christmas gift. I hope that by joining this group I will have more motivation! Feel free to yell at me and get me moving!
oh haha about me.
I just turned 21 December 26th. I am 5'5" or 6" and weight 174-180 depending on the day and shoes or not. I weighted 135 in the spring of 2009 and I never noticed how good I looked until I lost it and gained so much weight in such a fast time. My metabolis is slower than usual, I work as a nurses aid at a hospital while going to nursing school, and my family has bad genes so I am fighting a lot. It doesn't help my gf lost 70 lbs this past year bc I am jealous of her and yet don't get going.
I hope to really lose it this year. My brother is getting married in july and I want to fit into my 2009 dress but given that is too much to lose in a short time I will settle for a size 34 males jeans instead of 38 and size 11 female jeans instead of 16.0 -
I just wanted to say Heyyyy to everyone. I know that there are going to be some rough patches in the days ahead but I'm really glad that I have this group. I've only done the Fit Test but after come on here and reading your post I got motivated again. Thank you!!0

Hi everyone, I'm Lori. I got about 100 pounds of weigh to lose. So far I've lost 10 pounds since joining MFP in August, so my progress has been slow, even tho I've been doing alot of exercise. I'm hoping that Insanity is just the kick in the butt I need to transform this body. I'll be doing my workouts early in the morning before work, since after work my time it taken up with my 2 kids and husband and all the having a family involves. Happy New Year to you all, lets Dig Deeper than ever before!0

Hi, my name is Rosa and I just had a baby boy on Oct. 21st., right before the Holidays...I didn't stand a chance lol. I bought Insanity when I was still pregnant and let a friend borrow it. I'm getting it back tomorrow and I'm excited to start. I'm nervous, of course, but I have about 40 lbs to get rid of so I'm ready to get to it!0

Hi, Everyone!
My name is GlitterMouse. Feel free to call me G.Mouse for short. I'm new to the group and I'll be starting a little later (Took the Fit Test on Jan 8).
I'm 27 years old, 5'6" currently 274 pounds. I'm looking forward to Insanity because I've seen and heard about the great results other MFPers achieved. I was traveling after Christmas and the holidays, so I'm just getting home and starting into this new adventure. I'm excited (and a little scared/nervous), but I'm ready to give this my all. For the next 60 days, I"m going to do everything Shaun T tells me to do.
Glad to meet all of you and looking forward to encouraging one another!

I am brand new to MFP and Insanity. We (my husband and I) just started a couple days ago. I am hoping to loose about 30 lbs. Just a quick question, when logging your exercise what kind of exercise do you put in? Today I put Aerobic, high impact.0

Hi! I'm obviously insane to be taking on this insane workout. I'm extremely out of shape because I HATE to exercise. I am hoping that by doing this workout with others it will motivate me to stay and finish the program.
I am 43, married and the mother of 4 children ranging in age from 12 to 21. My husband is extremely fit from his line of work. I work retail and the most exercise I get is walking.
My current weight is 148lbs. I would love to get down to the weight my Wii says I should be (119), but realistically think that 125-130 is a good number for me.
I took the fit test last night and did the first workout this morning.0 -
Hello Everyone. Glad to be on the Insanity team. Time to dig deeper. I just started last week, Jan 2, 2012 and are expecting great results.
Question: When adding your exercise inputs for the day, what are folks using for the Insanity workouts?0 -
Hi all

I first I was putting in " Aerobic, high impact." but its not that accurate so I bought a heart rate/calorie counter watch.0 -
Was it high or low? I like to think I'm burning more than just 353 calories as much as I sweat...lolI am brand new to MFP and Insanity. We (my husband and I) just started a couple days ago.
