I did most of P90X back in the day but got bored with it. I'm on day 8 of Insanity today and if my diet were better, maybe I'd be losing weight. I'm going to join the gym this week and double up on Insanity and 5x5 upper body workouts.

Don't quit, no matter what. Don't rely on the scale, rely instead on pictures and how your clothes fit/feel. You may lose weight then plateau or maybe gain a few lbs before dropping weight, again don't be discouraged. Log daily. Measure your foods and overadd calories to be safe. Don't eat back any calories lost via…

Nice...er...necklace

Old beard pic. Not allowed to have a beard anymore for my career :(

Tell her to *kitten* off

My diet is the worst part, if I could get that under control I'd easily drop weight. I'm eating about 2500 calories a day, not eating back the Insanity calories burned. MFP says I should eat around 2K but...yea my diet sucks.

So you don't follow the Insanity program all the way through, you just pick exercises to do and take off every 3 days? I feel like this is more cardio and tons of lower legs whereas I want to hit up my upper body more (my weakness). I'm a firefighter so I don't want to be dead tired at work but I was thinking of doing a…

I TRY to maintain a calorie deficit and not count my workout calories in with my total diet. I try to keep it around 2k calories a day but I need to eat more protein while cutting back sugars. I'm getting bored with Insanity and want to go back to actual weightlifting where I saw good gains years ago. I've been trying…

I wanted to build my cardio endurance while cutting fat down so Insanity seems to give a good mix of both. Maybe I'll sub a day out for a long distance run instead. I'm staying around/under my calorie goal without counting for the Insanity calories burned so hoping I see results within a few weeks. If my diet was better…

I have cardio recovery tomorrow, looks like we're a day behind each other. I did P90X several years ago but can't recall Yoga X. I read some reviews that say it is challenging but you feel better afterwards. I've been sweating and breathing heavily while my HR has been averaging around 150. I feel like I can push myself a…

Fit test wasn't bad. Form was off on some exercises but handled it well. Today was plyo cardio and I had some moments at the end where I was gassed. Some leg exercises are hard to do because of my tight hips but hoping this helps me out. Biggest thing is my diet which has always sucked but I'm eating a bit better.

Thank you both. Fit test was a challenging but I did pretty well. Just need to stay motivated and dedicate the time to do it.

Hey shorty, welcome to MFP!

After several back and forth emails and explaining to them that if I can't change to Sunday, they'll lose other people who want to sign up with me and lose $$$, they changed me to Sunday. Problem solved.

Poster above me asked what I thought about TM and Spartan Race.

I did TM last year in Andover, NY. I liked the course but I honestly felt like TM could've been tougher. Spartan race is pressing them into becoming better so they've made some new course changes and are making things harder which we'll enjoy more. TM is more team-based and helping others out whereas Spartan race is all…

She liked being flipped over by multiple guys

She didn't realize that TP had 2 sides

She was so frugal she used to hang up wet paper towels to save money

Still used a PDA

Wanted me to dress up as Wonder Woman...my boobs were too big

150 oz of water is wayyyyyyy too much

Wanted to watch, never participated

Didn't know how to please me

Played around too much, never got serious

She didn't know what a nail file was

Her good side tried to push me onto a bed of nails

She wasn't evil enough

She liked Good n Plenty :s
