Finished day 3, I was surprised that the "V" push ups were easier than regular for me. I'm still having some difficulty with balance and lightheadedness going low and jumping up so I do those much slower. I ended up taking yesterday off due to very sore calves so now I'm on the same calendar schedule (I started Sunday) as…

My words were Holy Fudge! Really??? Again??? But yea, I didn't die, yet! Took a good long time to recover last night. I have to wear heels today, my calves hurt too much in flats. I hope that gets better before I try my next work out tonight; don't think I can do it in heels (No I don't normally wear them!)

I started on Sunday, I made it through the work out last night BUT there were moves that my body just CAN'T do yet (those side things with the feet in push up position? Yea right!) I hope to be able to work up to them, so I won't give up! I'll post my fit test when I get home tonight, so glad to have found this group!

I'm 52 and decided I can do as much as I can within my limits, I'm old enough to know what they are, and just get better slowly. I have a male nurse friend here at work who's son was on Biggest Loser, my friend is in his 60's and HE's doing it the same way I am, at our own pace. I hadn't been getting results from anything…

Hi all, I started Insanity with the Fit test on Sunday and did the first program last night. I can't do all the moves yet but I hear that will get better. I have a question for the seasoned Insanity Vets-do or did any of you get light headed going from the floor to the jumps? I am well hydrated, I drink about 10 glasses of…

Congrats! You look awesome! Thank you for sharing your story and giving me a dose of inspiration I need right now, I'm just under the 5'2" and stuck.

I got Insanity for christmas and then fell down the stairs and cracked my collar bone, just cleared to start it but I've been afraid! Thanks for all the notes, I've done Jillians' 30 DS and can keep up, so I feel ready. I'll do fit test tonight or tomorrow am and go from there....PM me if you are starting now too. Could…

I didn't realize my mouth was haning open until my boss happened by and asked if I was okay, then she looked at my screen and almost fainted.....we are both trying to lose weight, LOL. Food porn, thanks all, I'm going home for a nap now as my blood sugar crashes:blushing:

When Mc D's put the Yogurt parfet on their dollar menu they made it much smaller (according to my mom, I don't eat there) so maybe the 5 Oz is correct now.

Fabulous!!! Congrats, that smile tells it all!

I drink a LOT of water, eat a lot of fiber, veggies, fresh fruits, ect. When I upped my protein I had the same problem, I had to add 4-5 prunes a night and a stool softener. Have to keep things moving along!:laugh:

You look and ARE amazing and I'm so happy you are on my FL and keep me motivated!:smile:

I'm not surprised I didn't know, but Hubby? REALLY? this must be a VERY NEW holiday or he would have been all over it!:embarassed:

Such a great feeling to make our kids proud of us, you rock Mom!!!:drinker:

You look Fabulous! What an inspiration you are to others and me!

WOW! Except for the age I would have sworn this was my husband, I guess I wish it was. Good for you coming here, there is awesome support and a lot of good info. I can't add anything to what was said, just that I will support you also if you need a friend and I'm glad you came here.

Congrats, you look fabulous!

Bingo with my daughter and GF, then out for a couple of drinks. Haven't had girls night out in a long time, it's going to be fun!:bigsmile:

+ 10 days and move up a level, Level 2 is more intense, many say it's even harder than level 3. If your not challenged enough on level maybe try heavier hand weights?

Day 2 Level 1 in the books, pretty sore today, need to stretch more after!

^^^THIS, Count me in! NO more Excuses for me!!!

Being yelled at? *Puts hands over ears and backs away....*:noway:

lol. what you described is exactly what making a decision is. sometimes it is hard. sometimes it is second nature. [/quote] Those Hard things....when you do them, they BECOME second nature. If theres one thing I fall back on time and again, in my 20 years in the Navy, it was the hardest times I was learning the most.…

LOVE Olives, when we have a family pot luck 2 or 3 of us sign up to bring different types of olives!!!

Printed and ready to try! Thanks so much!!!

Real life example, I'm 51, I do resistance and was doing Jillian Michaels 30 DS with 3/5 lb weights only. I fell down 11 stairs, and cracked my collar bone in 2 places (not broken through). The first doc told me "You are lucky for your age" the Ortho told me "Its a good thing you exercise or you would have shattered that…

Got me too, ha ha, happy monday!

Its hard to get started, no bones about it. I go to bed in my work out gear and allow one hit on the snooze button. I tell myself, "You WANT this, so DO IT" I can easily (and did) allow negative thoughts crawl in and send me back to bed for another hour and 8 pounds came back. Now every morning I remind myself of that.…
