  • I do a pre-workout like Gatorade Prime, because it's inexpensive and i'm less likely to puke (if I'm doing Insanity) with little on my stomach. If i'm lifting, I can do any sort of caloric intake before working out. I do a high protein shot or Herbalife shake within a hour of post workout. Anything over 15g of protein per…
  • It gets really really repetitive. Some days i would dump the schedule, do Pure Cardio and something else i thought was fun.... like taking my dog for a walk or playing ball with him. If you quit cold turkey, it's likely that it'll be really hard to keep it up or start again. Try switching up a few workout days. BTW, month…
  • Another thought is how much water are you consuming? You should be drinking(in ounces) half you body weight ( in pounds) every day. Ex: i'm 232, so i drink 116... er.... well, I TRY to. It's tough, but it helps. High quality aloe may also help with intestinal upset. And when you say you were diagnosed, do you mean…
  • Yes, It works. I started using it with my INSANITY training, but didn't really see any results because I wasn't sticking to it. I've been working hard for the past month and have seen amazing results. 8.8 lbs in 3 weeks Not to get too scienc-y but here's why it works. We concentrate on THREE things... which can be achieved…
  • Just got engaged about two weeks ago. Wedding is set for October/November 2012 (depends upon when we can get an available date for our venue)... SOOO wanting to lose 30-40 lbs by then :) Feel free to add me! the more support, the better!
  • Sometimes it's better to allow yourself those sweets but only in moderation. For instance, I LOVE dark chocolate cookies with chocolate chips. OMG give me a gallon of milk with it and I'd be one happy girl. However, that doesn't cut it on the nutrition plan... Therefore, I found that the Atkins chocolate fudge cookies give…
  • I'm on day 19 of Insanity. LOVE IT! you definately get that crazy burn and puddle of sweat that you're looking for. I find it alot easier to get up and go thatn to drive 15 minutes to the gym, that's over crowded... DEFINATELY reccomend this workout!
  • Hahaha. my boyfriend laughs at me because i mock his little " come on guys, lets goooooo..." at the begining of the videos. lol Makes me feel better if I can atleast get a word in before he kicks my butt with the workout. :)
  • It's all about the small steps. Little changes for the better make a BIG difference. Don't overwhelm yourself by making the task seem harder to reach than it really is. Focus on the small goals and getting there, then before you know it.... BAM! Gal achieved! We are all here for the same reasons, and therefore we are all…
  • It cracks me up because ShaunTs definition of "recovery" and mine are VERY different. lol. Love this workout! On week 3 now.

  • believe it or not... but my mom cooked those for breakfast for us once. and we all had a hard time eating them. Needles to say she never tried it again!
  • Oh it's nutz. That "person" is a freak of nature. I think there's a problem with the instructor in the video is gasping for air going "I need a break" lol. I was like "what the crap?!?!?!?" But so far so good. It's definately worth it. Follow the nutrition plan and it's even better. Just don't skip a day. MFP makes it alot…
  • Doc didn't put you on any meds to help regulate did they? (Lipitor, etc) If not, there are several food choices you can use to help lower cholesterol naturally. Try cooking more with extra virgin olive oil when you saute veggies.....or adding a odorless fish oil to your daily supplements... My doc said mine were up when he…
