I'll glady join your challenge! Let's go, we can do this!

Thank so much for your encouragement!

No worries, I knew what you meant. Lol. Well, the thing with insanity workout is that it's a different video everyday so you're muscles don't get used to the routine. One of the reason I love it so much, it never gets boring and it's a challenge every time. With insanity you def build muscle...a lot of squats, push ups,…

Thank you, geekyjock. I will take all that you've said into consideration. I've been a machine...work out a lot and I work a lot. How I find as much time as I do to work out, I don't know how I do it. I am lucky to say I love my job so the stress level there is low. But the past 4 months in my personal life, stress has…

Amy - I read the overtraining issue article. I think this might part of my problem. Lol. The article says to rest and take time off from working out. This weekend is my birthday (sunday) so I guess this could be my bday present to myself...take a breather from working out as much as I have. I have a 3 day weekend (so…

Thank you and thanks for all the comments everyone! I do appreciate it.

Thanks for those articles. I appreciate it. I just need to regroup and not look at this as a set back. I'm going to cut back on working out as much. I'm just going to do the once a day, like the program says. My 3rd round ends next week so I will finish it up and maybe take a break from insanity and try more strength…

A healthy weight loss is between 1 - 2 lbs per week so I am on the right path. That is not too much.

My goal weight is between 110-105. Please take in mind I have a short frame. Lol My diet is heathly. I eat between 1400-1600 calories a day. There are very few days that I only consume 1200. My diet consist of a lot of protein, and lots of veggies and fruit. I keep carbs moderate...sticking with complex carbs. I drink…

I set my deficit to lose about 1.5 lbs per week.

Has anyone here invested in a heart rate watch that calculates calories burned? If so, which one would you recommend?

Vini9 - Shawn T is the BEST! That man changed my life! :) I have been eyeing Asylum so I'll look into that.

Normally I wouldn't stress too much about weight but ten just seemed too much in such a short amount of time. Ten pounds in a month and half. Luckily, I am the same size, and don't feel like I look "bigger" so I will try to focus on that for right now.

LMDelphia - That is a great idea not to plug in your work outs, I'm going to try that and see where it takes me. I can see gaining maybe up to 5 lbs in muscle but ten is just plain ridiculous plus I'm on the short side. I was also thinking when I start my 4th round of insanity (I'm hook to insanity, it soo much fun!!) I'm…

Clothes are not fitting any different. I am a size xs-s in tops, and a size 4/6 in pants. I do feel more toned. I and do know that some of the weight gained is muscle but ten is way too much. I've been on this journey for a year and half now and this has never happened. I'm a nurse, and I studied nutrition a lot so I just…

I always weigh myself in the morning. The morning weigh in are the most accurate. It's funny bc in August when I started my 3rd round of insanity, I weighed myself on a regular basis...about twice a week. Then I decided not to weigh myself until I got close to the end of the 60 days, plus I wanted to see how accurate this…
