hi billyjoebob - it's funny that you asked this because after reading most of NROL4W during Sunday and Monday I've had second thoughts about re-starting Insanity. I enjoy the workouts (at least after I'm done anyway) but a lifting program right now is what I need I believe. I've been focusing on circuit training and cardio…

MammaWannaRun, I just noticed our ticker starting and goal weights are the same. Do you mind my asking how tall are you? I'm 5'1".

Wow! Congrats, those are great results in 1 month! My current weight and BF% are almost the same as yours when you started so this is very encouraging to me! I'm half way done with the book except for the menus and exercise pages and I am sooo anxious to get started this week. I recently cut out wheat and processed foods.…

So, I didn't just fall off the Insanity wagon, I laid there while the damn thing ran over me! LOL I give credit to professional athletes who still play through injuries. I'm more of the thinking that I'll just get back to something after all is well. Since my clumsiness resulted in a banged up knee earlier this month, I've…

Bump! I'm starting the book this weekend. I'm sure I'll be just as confused as everyone else seems to be. lol I'm not a book editor or publisher, but I'm thinking that before this book went to print they should have had a focus group read it to find out if the layout of the workouts made sense to everyone. Sounds like the…

I'm way behind also since I fell early last week. Then I had 2 back to back PT sessions this week and was too sore. I'll be back to Insanity tomorrow morning without a doubt!! (i've probably said this 5 times since last week. lol)

Check out the ideas on this site: http://www.theyummylife.com/blog/2012/03/293/Overnight,+No-Cook+Refrigerator+Oatmeal+--+A+healthy+breakfast+made+in+mason+jars+in+six+different+flavors! I just started making Fridge Oatmeal last week. Delishious!!!!! From the link, I've only made the mango almond one so far. I also add…

Feeling bad about doing something that you don't even enjoy just creates stress. And we know what stress leads to! If there was one fitness program / dvd / workout that worked for everyone and everyone loved it, there would not be the thousands of choices on the market. I felt the same as you, but about JM Body Revolution.…

Hey! That's wonderful! I haven't been able to do Insanity since last Tuesday before I fell on my knee. :sad: Tonight I had my PT workout, tomorrow night also to make up for missing last week. If I decide to sleep in tomorrow I'll be sure to be back at Insanity on Thurs! Then I'll do fit test #2 next Mon. I hope I see…

Welcome! My suggestions and thoughts: Get ready to sweat! Remember what Shaun T constantly tells us "maintain good form even if you have to go slower". Don't think you're going to keep up with the beautiful bodies behind him. In time you just may be able to keep up or even surpase some but until you get there, just do your…

That is so funny that I just saw this post. I just came back from a walk and while I was out, I was wondering the same thing! I've come across so many great recipes on this site but then I forget the name and have to search, even when I "bump" them, there are so many that I still have to do a search. I agree with SarLem81.…

This is EXACTLY what I needed to see today! I am also 5'1" and 158lbs (71 kg). I've been at a platau since the end of Jan. Actually I gained 8lbs since then which has been coming and going. So I've been pretty obsessed with wondering if I will ever get even close to my goal. To see your before pictures at the same size I…

I've had a bad week also. Just when I felt like I was on a roll and then I go and fall on my knee Tue night. The swelling is finally down now but wow the bruising is nasty!!! It also still hurts a bit. I guess I'm lucky I didn't break it. Today my 4th day in a row without Insanity. I did wake up naturally at 6:30am this…

There's truth to the saying "Garbage in, garbage out". Just like a car, we have to provide the proper fuel to get the best performance out of our bodies. I started making Fridge Oatmeal this week. I've never heard of it before I read abut it on MFP. Wow! It's so easy and delishious!! This link has some great recipes…

Thanks! Yes I've been icing my knee. I decided to sleep in rather than push it with more exercising this morning. i think I'll be good to go tommorow. I hope so anyway! I'm missing my Shaun T!!!

i am so bummed out today! I went out to dinner with my husband last night and fell hard on my left knee! :sad: What a clumsy idiot! My knee started swelling within seconds and it's still all swollen and black and blue now. I was all set to hit Plyo this morning before work. Obvoisly that didn't happen. Can't even remember…

Is it wrong that all I could think of during Pure Cardio today was turkey bacon? :laugh:
-
It does feel good doesn't it?! I totally saw a change from last Tue Cardio Power & Resistance and this morning's. Last week it was such a struggle, still hard today but I could keep up more. Have a great week everyone! Fit Test next week. WhooHoo!!

I've been wanting to do the water dunk method. After some searching of the MFP message boards, I just came across posts on DEXA scan. I've never heard of this before. After a search online I learned more about it and I see that a local dignostic center offers it. I can't wait to call them Monday to find out how much it…

Couldn't get to Pure Cardio last night after work. I just did it now and am soaked! I had to take many breaks but I got through it! YAY! I enjoy that it's all different moves. I wear a body media armband and in 38 mins of activity (I know the workout is longer but when you take out the stretching it's only 38 mins) I…

1973 White and brown (lots of rust) :laugh: AMC Matador. It was 10 yrs old and I paid $300 for it. I loved it, rust and all! Washed it every weekend and cut up my hands on all the rust. I had it for about 4 months and spent about $1,000 fixing it every time I turned around!

going to try this recipe this weekend! Thanks!

If anyone wants another workout calendar, this link is good http://jewelzz.osnn.net/Insanity/Insanity-Calendar.pdf

Success! I hit the play button instead of snooze! I realized though that I have to wake up a little earlier to eat something. Shaun T on an empty stomach does not make for a very powerful workout. :grumble: I'll have 1 whole wheat Nutrigrain waffle with a little pb about 30 mins before I hit play. That should definately…

What a great idea!!!! Thanks for doing this! Let's help to keep each other accountable. I know I need it!

gabyp0716 - except for the reference to Bikram, I could've typed that 1st paragraph myself! 2 weeks ago I did the fit test and the first 2 workouts. Since then I keep hitting snooze in the morning and then tell myself I'll do it after work. Come home from work and something else comes up or I'm just too tired. Starting…

WOW!!! Thanks for sharing this!
