Hi, I've been doing Insanity workout DVD's and just finished month 1. I have about 45-50 lbs I'd like to lose and a month ago I started eating healthy and clean. My diary is open and I log daily. Anyone, please feel free to add me, we all need motivation and support! Good luck with your new journey :)

I am finishing up month 1 of Insanity and so far have lost 9 lbs and lots of inches. Most lost is my waist and lower abdomen. I have been following a clean diet and I feel alot better and am really glad I have started this journey. Anyone can feel free to add me we all need motivation and support. I am loving Insanity :)

I started Insanity 6/23/14 and last week my husband decided to join in with me on the workouts and clean eating...so I'm continuing week 3 until he catches up...but I'm trying to be patient and waiting to take measurements and weigh myself after month 1...But I feel better and look forward to these workouts daily...am I…

Wow you look amazing!! I have to agree with 95% of posters on here with your style as well!!! Such a great transformation in a year! Are you doing any particular program or just logging your food and eating cleaner? What ever you are doing, it is definitely working for you!! :)

I just started week 3 of Insanity and have lost 6 lbs. and a few inches. I too wonder if maybe you're not consuming enough to fuel your calorie burn. I know it's hard to get to that amount of daily calorie goal. I was filling up on junk and always seemed hungry and bloated .. all the time. Now logging every thing in and…

Please add me if not too late to join! I just started week 3 and I already am starting to feel different in a good way. I feel like I sit straighter and stand straighter. I have at least 50 lbs I'd like to lose and lots of inches. I look forward to pushing play each day...dread some of the workouts, but feel a sense of…

I just started week 3. I have a long way to go to get the inch loss and weight loss I'm looking for, but I have to say that of all the other workout programs that I have done before, this one is leaving me feeling good with a sense of accomplishment at the end of each workout session. I cannot keep up and do as fast as…

I just started Monday and so far am really liking it! I am sore, but must show I'm doing something right! :) I'm trying to follow the eating plan and I'm try to log all my food and beverages daily. I sent you a friend request too! :)

Great job!! Dedication and will power!!! You look wonderful!! :)

I'm so happy to read everyone's comments! Thank you so much for commenting! It's so nice to read everyone's experiences with Insanity as well as advice as it really means a lot. My DVDs will be here tomorrow!! YAY!! :) Glad they will arrive prior to Monday so I can play through a few first to see what I've gotten myself…

To Aaron_K123, No offense taken and you have a good point. I cannot speak for others, but for myself I have seen and read transformations of those who have done Insanity and or are currently doing the program that are my size or larger and I must admit the positive results are very motivating for me. I agree with you that…

I'm really encouraged by you all and thank you for your support and advice!! I am figuring to give it my all and will continue it as many months as needed to get in shape and feel good about myself again. My 41st b-day is in 4 months so my first goal I hope to at least go from a tight 14 jean to a loose 12 by my b-day! My…

Thank you all for your input and support! I have previously been doing Tae Bo Boot Camp, but have not seen any real results so I'm really hoping Insanity will be challenging to keep me from getting bored as well as challenging to my body to see results!! :) Thank you all :)

Thank you all for replies! I have been so desperate to find something that will work for me. I was around 145-150 three years ago and after having my hysterectomy it seems the weight just piled on even while doing good cardio workouts. Not sure if it's stress induced or a chemical imbalance, but what ever the case I'm done…

Feel free to add me as well as I'm looking for the same! I have much greater amount to lose than you, but we're here for the same thing! :) Great job on your weight loss so far and keep up the good work! We all need motivation! :)

Finally decided to try Insanity as nothing else was really giving me results I am looking for. Order should be here so I can start Monday. Looking forward to it. I'm sure I'll need to complete the program a few times to get results like I'm looking for, but I am hoping it will be worth it in the end! Good luck to all of…

Thank you! I'm sure it will be extreme and intense and I will probably have to complete the program a few times to see the results I'm looking for, which isn't a problem. My goal is to be feel better and look better by my 41st birthday which is 4 mo. away. I updated my calorie tracker and goals, I can't believe I will need…

Great job and so inspiring!!! Way to go!! :)

Thank you all for your responses. I have been doing low carb, but not as restrictive as Atkins as I only lost 10 pounds with 22 carbs a day and it took me 3 months. I know low carb is what most with PCOS say helps to diminish a great deal of the symptoms as well as help with weight loss, but I think the 22 carb a day limit…

Thank you all for your responses!! It's so nice to read how others are doing with this. I hope with one another's encouragement will help us!! :) I have two great kids, my son 21 and my daughter 15, I wasn't diagnosed with PCOS until after she was born, but now knowing more about it, I must have had it as a teen. No…

Hello! I too have PCOS and am now determined to lose this weight! I am so happy I found this site and there are other PCOS sisters here! I was diagnosed after my daughter was 3, since 2001. In 2007 I went through a divorce and lost 70 pounds, I'm sure stress induced, but was able to keep it off until this past year when I…
