Oh my gosh I'm so sorry I'm just seeing these responses to me. I will type more later fron a computer (I hate typing on my phone) but YES ypu will be tired the first few days of induction (possibly up to a week) as your body transitions from burning carbs to burning fat. You do NOT have to eat mayo

I've always gotten amazing results doing the program as-is. When I give the DVD 100%, I honestly don't have much left to give my all to another workout.

I've been following Atkins since 2007 and many others have found this way of eating to be a way of life as well. Please remember that you must get in adequate fat to fuel your body when following Atkins. Trying to do low carb and low fat won't work, since Atkins forces your body to burn fat, you have to FEED it some fat…

Bump - I'm starting a round of Insanity TODAY! Anyone want to join in? Since it's already Wednesday, I'm going to follow the week 1 schedule for the remainder of the week, then repeat it next week starting with the Fit Test on Monday. I just don't want to wait till Monday to start. Who's in?

I'm on Day 17 and did Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs earlier. I really like Pure Cardio because just as you fatigue one area, you move on to something else, but Cardio Abs was a bit of a struggle for me. I've dedicated these last two weeks of the Cardio Phase to really digging deeper and pushing past the mental barriers during…

Good Morning DIGGING DEEPER Peeps:wink: :laugh: Jennieo, wow you walked 6.5 HOURS on Sunday? Were you competing in an event? Or did you mean 6.5 miles? I’m doing the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer April 30 and May 1 (39.3 mile walk) and although I’ve done it for the past four years, I still get a little nervous leading up to…

WOW, this thread moves fast on the weekend….I’ve got lots of catching up to do, but I LOVE knowing that I’ve got company going through this fire WELCOME to all of the newcomers. I’ve just recently started posting here myself…it’s a warm, friendly, welcoming group. But most of all, we’re all BRINGING IT, and DIGGING DEEPER…

I think you should TRY P90X since you already have it. It is true that the 'fun factor' is not the same as you'll get with Chalene's workouts, but it's still an effective program - especially if you make sure you're in a deficit in terms of your caloric intake. Who knows, you might like Tony's humor and his little…

Good Morning everyone! Today is Day 13, Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs. I'll go with what someone here said a couple of days ago and call it 62 minutes of cardio hell:laugh: :noway: . But in all honesty, I'm looking forward to it. Most days I workout in the morning, but I've been off my game this week. That really hurts me on…

EEEEEEK, nooo you don't HAVE to spend more $$$$. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to give you the wrong impression, P90X is a good program and people have gotten GREAT results from it. I personally prefer CLX though (and I got better results from it). You will need weights for CLX but no equipment like a pullup bar or anything…

ceelovejay I'll admit I called shakemybooty Ms. Booty because I was too lazy to backpage to get her REAL screenname and I remembered seeing your post with Ms. Booty, lol. YIKES, I probably should have asked about that first. You are hearing right about Chalene...I just can't say enough good about her. I'd love to give you…

Ms. Booty, I WELCOME the company:wink:. The suffering will be all worth it when we reach those goals:bigsmile: Dawnemjh, I hope that knee feels better. :cry: Toni - who is off to log my foods for the day. I'll be back at lunchtime :)

THANK YOU Ceelovejay!!! You will NOT be disappointed with CLX. Do you already have the program or do you still need to order it? Have you listened to the Motivational CD that comes with it? I absolutely LOVE Chalene Johnson and her ability to motivate and inspire. If you haven't listened to that CD, make sure you do...it's…

GOOD MORNING Everyone:wink: :happy: Today is day 12, Cardio Power & Resistance...I think it's absolutely hilarious that CPR is the abbreviation for that workout cause that's what I feel like I NEED when I finish it:glasses: . I took a few pictures last night after I did Cardio Recovery yesterday and my abs are coming back…

Shakemybooty - well if your screenname is any indication, you will LOVE TurboFire...the music is seriously banging!!! :laugh: Jabdye, we can do this!!! Let's hit those goals!! Did I mention how happy I am to have found this thread?:bigsmile:

Jabdye, those photos were taken four months apart - during my first round of ChaLEAN Extreme. The program is 90 days, but I tacked on the 4 week Lean for Life rotation at the end. I got a bit more leaner when I did INSANITY but now I've gained a little and I'm back to where I was in the 'after' portion of my photo. So…

THANKS for the warm welcome Everyone!!!:wink: :happy: , I spent a good portion of my morning at work reading this thread and was hoping I'd found a HOME:flowerforyou: and great people to hang out with during this round of INSANITY. It really is so much easier when you have others going through the fire with you. kcmom - I…

Hi Jabdye, you're in for a treat with Pure Cardio because even Shaun T has a curse for that one when it's over, lol. I literally LOL EVERY TIME at the end of that workout:laugh:

Hi Everyone!!! I'm so glad I found you all:wink: :smile: . I'm on Day 11 of my third round of INSANITY (not back-to-back, I've done ChaLEAN Extreme, P90X, SI6 and a few others inbetween rounds). I'm so happy that today is Cardio Recovery (although I still can't wrap my head around that workout being called 'recovery',…
