Yes I am expecting all the bad reviews. I really just want info on it. I haven't tried it, I know its not a nutritional supplement more of a 'helper'. I have heard that it can give you the jittery feeling so I was curious if that has happened to anyone. Thanks for the responses!

This is what has helped me so far, and I get bad cravings too around that time of the month! -I make it a must to workout in the morning that way its done and I feel 'healthier' all day and want to be good. -Have your food diary open to at least your friends so they keep you accountable. I don't want to cry about not…

Thank you all for your opinions! Some great points were brought up. I was just curious what others were thinking about juicers, not setting out to get one. I make smoothies currently and enjoy those but wasn't sure if I wanted to juice instead. I have heard rave reviews about the Ninja blender and am hoping to get one…

I LOVE Insanity! It has enough change in it that I don't remember what the next move is, I have burned anywhere from 500 to 800 calories in one session, and have seen major improvement in my whole body. It is an intense workout so I recommend starting out with something else and getting yourself to where you can handle…

I did slim in 6 with some improvements.My arms were more toned, my stomach tightened and my butt lifted! I used it as a restart program because I hadn't exercised in so long. I then moved on to Insanity to get more results. I really enjoyed Slim in 6 and plan on using it when I am down to maintaining and need to change it…

I would love more friends also! feel free to add me! I log daily and am determined!!!!

I agree with needing to get a HRM. I purchased a HRM with chest strap to get a more accurate result and also do insanity. I usually burn anywhere from 450 to 700 calories per workout.

I don't have any pictures yet but was hoping my small accomplishments would help you. I am 3 weeks into Insanity and so far I have lost 3 inches on my waist, went from doing 'girl' push ups to doing MAN pushups. I can do about 10 before I give out! lol My arms have amazing definition and I am starting to see lines on my…

Thank you for all the great ideas! I am excited to try the new shakes and protein peanut butter cups!!! Keep them coming!

Thank you for the info!

I would love to join! I just started Insanity and would really like to have a support group to go along with this journey!

I also hardly ever eat meat. I get a lot of protein from whey shakes, quinoa, raw nut butters, beans, lentils, and barley. I feel the best when I stay away from meats but have found that I can eat tuna and salmon without feeling weighed down. Hope that helps!

I really like the Optimum Nutrition from GNC or Amazon. It tastes the best with a good amount of protein in it. I use it plain or add in fruit and veggies to make more of a meal replacement drink. You can mix it with milk or water and there isn't all the added crap in it.

Hmmm...I guess everything I have been told is different from this so now I am more confused..I was also under the impression that cardio helps you loose weight. I am only wearing HRM during cardio exercise so I am ok there.

You have an amazing story! I hope you will be able to inspire more young people to use the mean people of society to fuel themselves for the better!! Way to go!

Thank you for sharing your story! You are such a great example that I needed to see today! Congrats on your goal and good luck on the rest of your journey!
