I was actually in support of the original poster when I replied "The kids don't need it either." I never assumed or insinuated that a childs cake was thrown away. OP - I'm sorry that a NSV that you shared has some ridiculous replies. I am one that cannot keep things like that around the house because it's a trigger for me.…

I'm a huge fan of mashups. I'm a cycle instructor so I get bored of music quickly - especially mainstream stuff. Mashups give a good variety. Check out Steady130 for some fun mixes.

If you have have bad knees, Insanity may aggravate them. Be sure to modify the moves when you need to. There's lots of jumping in the videos.

Fav - overhead presses and lat raises Least Fav - dead lifts (tight hammies from running)

Hope you are feeling better today!!

Oatmeal w/ special dark unsweetened cocoa, made with almond milk, and a teasp of almond butter. Breakfast burritos Overnight oats - a million and one ways to make these Scrambled egg whites with apples and cinnamon - my current fav!!

The kids don't need it either.

You ladies are so strong!!! I'm going to be setting my DVD's aside for a bit. I am already getting in too much cardio, and need to focus on more strength training. So, 3 days a week I'm adding in a good full body workout. I also wasn't seeing any changes in following insanity. Not that I don't think it works; I think I'm…

Love the flip flops :) Seriously though - great job!

You look amazing! Your smile is absolutely radiating!

My suggestions: -Only buy enough fresh fruits/veggies that you can eat before they go bad. It's okay to make a second trip to the store. Better than throwing away rotten food (=hard earned money). -Eggs and tuna are cheap protein -Frozen veggies can be an inexpensive option - and there are usually coupons in the ads -Oats…

Great job!!! Hard work pays off.

Counter weight helps also. If you have them available, grab a light kettlebell and hold it in front of you, wrapping your hands around the handle.

I like to cook mine down on the stovetop with just a touch of water and sweetener. Then use as a topping for pancakes or waffles.

Skinnytaste has a lot of low cal casserole options. I've really like all of her recipes.

Great job!! Your hard work has paid off! And I like that you've acknowledged eating more was a good thing.

You may not have gotten the results you expected, but you definitely got results! Very noticeable! You look great, and great job sticking to it for the full program!!

^^^^ ---- this! Great advice.

I had some of the same concerns. Advice I was given, just stick with it. Most of the magic apparently happens in month 2. Also, we do not have the same amount of weight to lose as maybe some others do. Try to ignore the scale, stick with the workouts, and on day 30, remeasure and take updated photos.

I've come to realize that while this is a great program, it may not be what I need to get the results I want. I will continue with it for a little longer - I'm not quite ready to throw in the towel. I have also gained about 2 pounds, and I am not seeing any change in shape/inches. I will be getting my BF and measurements…

Amazing transformation in such a short time frame!!

Such an amazing story. You are an inspiration!

Amazing transformation! Your hard work has definitely paid off!

Lulu is my favorite to wear!! The capris don't fall down when I run, the run swiftly tops are comfy. I don't ever have any problems with chafing. And it all washes excellent!! To me, it's worthy every dime.

You worked hard and have great results to show for it! Nice work!!

Great job!!

Oh my!!! You were a beast yesterday!! I have cardio recovery today. I was supposed to run 9 miles yesterday for my marathon training, but it just didn't happen. Food happened instead :( So, Ima gonna hit up the treadmill in a few, followed by Insanity. Let us know how today goes!

It's on it's way nikki!

^- - - this. My legs are so heavy by this point. I was also wondering if you do the cooldown for pure cardio and then do the cardio abs, or just skip the cool down and go right into cardio abs?

I like a little balsamic vinegar on my sprouts. I would just bake them both seasoned with your favorite spices/seasonings. Fish is good with some lemon juice and black pepper, Old Bay Seasoning, or creole.
