Take pictures and keep for yourself. You will not regret it!

Okay so I started about three weeks ago and I have lost over half a stone. I was 17st 11lb when I started Insanity, now I am 17st 3lb. I exercise in the gym as well as doing Insanity and I've always watched what I eat and drink. I'm a lot fitter, stronger and faster and there was a time when I was stressing out because…

I will. Don't get me wrong, I do like Insanity but there are a couple of workouts that I just dislike and it puts me off. I literally have to force myself to do it! It's cool because I know it'll benefit me! I'll just have to suck it up and do it. At the minute though, I don't want to injure myself so I'm not taking a rest…

Oh my God, your stories are so inspiring and motivational! I loved reading each of them. Shelley, you are like this bad-*kitten* b!tch. You are the true Michonne of the group! I mean, damn, a Deputy Sheriff? And you get to use a gun? Remind me never to mess with you! Ellie, seriously, with a heck of a story like that, how…

Insanity is working for me at the moment. I was 17st 11lb when I started it three weeks ago, I'm now 17st 3lb and I've gone down half an inch on my waist. I've also noticed I'm a lot fitter and stronger as well. I was also a beginner and I really struggled with a lot of the exercises, now I can do most of them and I can…

Thanks for this! It's really hard and it doesn't help when people tend to think it's something that isn't serious. It's not exactly easy to overcome but I've been doing really well. As I said, if I do get a quick crave, I'll go to the fruit section and get some fruit. Tends to take my mind off the binge.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I eat with emotions- big time! The worst thing is that whenever I'm upset, mad, angry, scared...anything negative, I want food instantly. Sometimes, I can get easily stressed because of people and the first thing I think about is toffee popcorn, which is my weakness. I can very easily eat a…

Thank you for your kind words, Louise! It's very sweet of you to say! I know what you're going through. I was speaking to my friend who is also kinda-sorta my personal trainer (he does my circuits and advises me) and he told me that scales are NEVER 100% accurate and the best way to find out whether you've lost fat is…

Ellie, never think that you're not inspirational. Seriously. I mean, look at this week for instance. You got a leg tattoo and couldn't do the punishment but did you say "I can't do the punishment so I'm not doing it!"? No! Instead, you said "I can't do it, find me an upper body alternative!", that's awesome in itself.…

THE MINI-AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE DAZZLER My name is Darren and I’m a recovering fatty-bum-bum, I’m 23 years of age and I work two jobs in retail but my passion is to write although lately, I've not done much of that except for the writing I do everyday on my blog (www.doesmybloglookbig.wordpress.com). I don’t really want to…

I totally agree with you! We are totally rocking it out! I love everyone here, seriously, you're all such an inspiration to me. I'll write my mini-autobio tonight but for all of Team Michonne who didn't see it at the start of February, here is my fitspo:…

Tyreese and Sasha, I applaud you! The punishment you have given us is difficult! However, I'm so up for the challenge! I had an embarrassing situation with wall squats before this punishment where I actually got so tired, I somehow fell over and faceplanted the floor...in front of a few people! Don't ask how I did it!…

Team Carl, you're awesome! I love you to bits! Nisijam, that day sounds so hectic and you STILL manage to work out. That's plain old commitment right there! Go you! :)

Watch this, I am dying with laughter! How clever! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsCSfQ-AkT0

Well done on your workout, Shelley. I'm also flattered you were going to name him after me but I'm sad that he was ill, sorry to hear that! Yes, Ellie! I'm loving that you're trying to find an alternative punishment. It just shows how determined we are as a team. You go, girl! :) We're bringing Abraham home, man! I've done…

Thanks. I look forward to hearing how you've done! Stick with it and give it your all! :)

Hello, I have found this totally awesome workout that I just done (at midnight, just so excited to try it out and it's amazing!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoSh94PKZw0

What are you naming him?

Thank you! I look forward to reading your list of exercises. I might try some out myself! I'll also look forward to the new addition to your tank! :D

Thank you so much for your kind words, Zombieinkpot. I just did what I could! Unfortunately, I missed it out by one but I did it on the day I handed my stuff in. My legs were killing me but I managed. As for being Batman, I wished I was the size of him, haha. Unfortunately, I'm not! However, you can call me The Dazzler ;)…

Guys, I'll be on my ultimate this week to get this dude. I promise I won't let you down We can do this, guys! Michonne will hopefully help us too.

I'd follow it. You're still burning calories after all... :)

I'm up for punishments. I have a fun awesome one I've been doing that's effective for weight loss called ZOMBIES. Also, I done my fitspo during the Early Bird challenge. I'm going to do another but may not get points for it on my behalf because we already have them.

True. I can't help but feel guilty though. It's really weird. I didn't do it before Spinning because I wasn't sure of how intense or difficult it'd be (and it ended up being really intense) and after the other two classes, I was tired. It doesn't help that I wasn't exactly looking forward to yet another Pure Cardio workout…

I'd like to be friends, that would be awesome! I have a couple of friends on MFP who are doing Insanity. :)

Thank you, that's such a lovely thing to say. Let me take this opportunity to say that we're very proud of everyone for sticking to the punishment. Not a lot of people would have even attempted it but all of the teams in the challenge have given it a go and it's amazing to see such commitment!

The only complaint that I have about doing the other team's punishment is that the person who messaged me has only done one out of four all week! I kind of wished they had messaged me sooner instead of leaving it this late but that's not to say it isn't do-able. I did one of them yesterday so three to go. Believe it or…
