Me too. It was a bit confusing! The best way to learn how is to use the search function and search how to post photos. You need to add your photo to a host website like photo bucket and then copy the URL with some MFP codes

So sorry to see you go. Take care your daughter and know we're sending our positive vibes. Let us know if you decide to start up again.

Woo hoo! Awesome week 1 results my friend! Loving the positivity and so glad this accountability group has been helping you accomplish your goals. Here's to week 2!

We all deserve this much needed rest day today. I hope you're all thoroughly enjoying a day off from Shaun T. I love to do an extra stretch class on Sundays just to keep my body moving but in a relaxing way!

Pure cardio was craaaaaaazy! I couldn't believe how much I sweat today! Tonight I asked my boyfriend to join my workout and push me harder as he's done more insanity than I have. I definitely pushed harder and took less breaks. Actually getting excited for future workouts now because I can feel my body getting stronger!

Haven't done my workout yet for Day 5 since I had a very early morning but doing my workout with my boyfriend as soon as we get home from work! SUPER scared hahaha

Yummmmm I need some coconut oil!

Yum cauliflower would be good too! And it was sriracha!

"I totally hated Day 4 of Insanity" - said no one ever! I love me a good stretch so waking up early today was no biggie for me! My muscles felt amazing and it was still a good burn regardless of the low impact. Also doing another extremely fun workout tonight which helps since I didn't burn too much this morning. Going…

Ok day 3 was intense. Or should I say insane! I got through it but definitely slacked more than necessary and I have got to step it up a notch. I've got to learn to push myself and not give up so early as my water breaks are way too frequent. I feel my body getting stronger though which is great! How did everyone else's…

Round 2! Way to goooo! That's amazing and I hope to feel that same way when I'm done with round 1. I completed 8 weeks of Turbo Fire before this so I definitely feel amazing but ready to get cut all over for the beach!

And we are SO lucky to have you here as well! You're exactly the reason I started this group so I'm really glad you're putting it to use as we all need support and motivation, especially for this insane challenge we've taken on! So sorry to hear about the struggles you've been going through but really happy to hear you've…

I confess, I could NOT wake up this morning to do my workout!! I was WAY too tired so I'll be doing it tonight when I get home. My boyfriend tells me that power cardio & resistance is his favorite workout. We'll see about that! So proud of everyone else who's gotten their workout in already today! Unfortunately 6am didn't…

Yeah I wasn't sure what 1 rep was. I did 40 reps not 80!

Love it! I did the fit test and day 1 today. I posted my results for the fit test in the other discussion. Day 2 workout - Plyometric cardio circuit was INTENSE. I don't think I've ever jumped so much in my life. I had to take quite a few breaks as my endurance is awful but I definitely pushed hard. My boyfriend also does…

This introduction is SO amazing! I love the theme of your vow renewal and your change in lifestyle. It's definitely inspiring! Congratulations on your loss and looking so forward to hearing your results from Insanity! Welcome to the group!

Wow amazing progress! We're you doing a program prior to insanity?

Of course it's ok! Whatever you're comfortable with. Feel free to post anything in between if you want as well! I will be posting by fit test results with every stage :)

I drink Shakeology everyday. I've noticed quite a change in my energy and for weeks the scale wouldn't move and now it finally has. I'm really loving it! Let me know if you have any other questions on it :)

Canadians too :)

I haven't done Jillian's 90-day video but I've done a few others. She's intense! I just got bored of the repitition. I've done Turbo Fire and am doing it again now. The last time I dropped 15 lbs and put on muscle. I guess I am a bit biased in saying Turbo Fire because it's all I've done and worked for me! Let me know if…

I think everyone is going to have their own opinion and that's fair. Whether or not a program or the gym works for an individual is their personal experience. I think it's unfair to tell someone to STOP using a program because they don't believe in it. That can be extremely discouraging for someone who has invested money…

I love your courage in going there and getting it done. The gym machines aren't always easy and some of them are way too technical to understand. Great job for having the motivation to get as much done as you can and setting a goal to go back tomorrow!

Not even a full month! You look amaaaaaaaazing!! Great job!

Having the motivation to workout can be difficult but it's totally a lifestyle change that you need to make if you really want to get serious about losing weight. I choose to do my workouts right when I wake up because I know I won't when I get home. I don't even press the snooze button. If I do I'm in big trouble! I got…

You definitely need to up your food intake! With the amount of exercise you're getting in, 700 is just crazy!! Aren't you starving all the time? I'm doing intense workouts 6 days a week and try to eat at 1550 cals a day. It's hard sometimes because I'm not always hungry enough but I just fill it with good stuff regardless…

Great to know that! Thanks :)

I typically do my workouts in the morning before getting ready so I eat about an hour afterwards.

This is great!! You loko fantastic and a lot happier! Congratulations on coming this far and lots of luck in your journey ahead!

I'll usually go for a REALLY long walk with my dog, sometimes alone or sometimes with my boyfriend if I need to talk to someone. If I'm more mad than stressed I will workout. A good sweat helps clear up negative emotions.
