Hmmm, may not seem helpful, but maybe you should work on embracing the curvy body shape you have now… You can put on muscle and try to firm up the area that has excess fat. Sounds like you're on the right track with the diet and exercise, so you just need to give it time. Aside from that, there may not be much more you can…

8! Pretty blue eyes!

Happy 1000th!! That's just plain awesome, and you look healthy and fit! If only everyone was as 'nuts' as you, we wouldn't have the obesity problem we have today. Well done!

I'm pretty sure they're available on YouTube. Another option is 'hacking' your dvd player. I moved from USA to Europe with over 300 films on DVD. Most players have a hack sequence easily found on the Internet. Could be as easy as pressing a few buttons on the remote, just do a search for the model number. Both my DVD…

Yes. Level 2 sucks. All the plank moves at the end are killer! Haha, but you'll make it through it. Similar to Level 1 in that you'll see improvement after several days. I really liked Level 3 though! Stick with it, it's worth it in the end :)

The measurement between my hips and my waist…a few inches below my belly button. I measure there every week in hopes that my love handles are reducing! I like the way I look from the front, but not so much from behind…all because of these love-handles! They've improved drastically with the +50lb loss, but they're still…

Finishing up my first week today…tomorrow's a Rest day, yay! I'm liking it so far and have luckily read enough on the forums to know that I need to go at my own pace, break when needed, and not to expect to see the scale move much. Knowing how I feel after a work-out and seeing all the results posted here, I can tell this…

Hi there…fairly new to Insanity. I completed day 4 today (incl Fit Test) and am on to my first Pure Cardio work-out tomorrow. Did a preview so I know what to expect…and geez, does it look Insane!! Where in the heck are the water breaks? BA-nanas is right. Glad that I've had some training with Jillian and Chalean prior, as…

-50lbs today!! I've lost a small bale of hay…. A hard one to relate to, but I'll take it!

May I suggest playing around with your macro ratios a little? I eat twice as much protein and I'm 5'8 female. You're following some intense exercise programs…I think you'd benefit more from Insanity and P90X by upping your protein intake. Plus, many find that protein keeps them fuller longer. It's worth trying and might…

I suggest doing ChaLean Extreme, if you can get your hands on it and some heavy weights. It's geared more towards women than P90X, and the work-outs are shorter and more enjoyable, IMO. I am just getting started with it and am using between 16 and 25lb weights right now, depending on the move. I love Chalene, she's super…

I like using this method…I used my BMR and TDEE as a guide for an intake base and eat 75-100% of my exercise calories back. I find this works for me as I'm truly sedentary, aside from my workouts, and my exercise varies so much that I burn a different amount each day. I eat ~1500 cals on my rest day (1x a week) and up to…

Very useful information, and very well put and explained. Thanks for taking the time to do this!

I'm 29, 5'8. I started at 210 and through proper nutrition and good fun exercise, I've lost 46 lbs (so far). My goal is between 150-155, to be in shape with some muscle definition, AND to maintain this healthy lifestyle, for life! I eat well and keep an open diary. Feel free to add me!

^Agreed! I've cried on several occasions, but only after a particular workout. For whatever reason, 30 Day Shred Level 2 brings me to tears the moment it stops and enters the cool down. No emotions attached, nothing particular running through my mind, so I can't explain why…but my body needs to let out a short cry. It…

^THIS. Once you've completed the Shred and reached a decent fitness level, the above 2 workouts are great!! I have all the others mentioned, as well as Kickbox FastFix. They're great, but these 2 stand out... BFBM is amazing cardio and NMTZ focuses more on muscle 'toning.' I did a month rotating 4-5 of her workouts and got…
