I guess Im the only person who LOVES the INSANITY program!?!?! I did it because i have a tiny apartment & the baby was too young for the childcare at the gym. I think someone mentioned that you need dumbbells for it and you do NOT. It's great but it ends up being MUCH more cardio than you expect. If you do it right, with…

I had the SAME problem. I have two kids and work out for 45-min to an hour a day HARD. A protein shake is a good idea. I use the brand "Pure Protein" I get it from target. Its low in sugar and carbs and I have one or two every day and my energy has increased significantly. I am also sleeping better. I've also started…

I used to be from Cali! Lucky! adding you now :)

Welcome!! You're going to love it! Just stick with it. Add me if you'd like.

When it comes to the grocery store and healthy food being more expensive....I switched from buying my produce at fred meyer to buying from a local farmers market. They are everywhere and usually the prices are literally half. sometimes you can buy twice as many fruits and veggies than at the store. I spend no more than 100…

Ughhh - On my third rest day. How is everyone else doing? Starting week 4 this Monday. Anyone else getting a little bored of the same 'ol stuff? I can't wait till the circuits change up a little. At lease the workouts are short and sweet. Also, I was working out with a buddy who got a cold and I fear he has fallen off the…

I'd let Shawn-T ruin my good girl reputation. Lol.

I'm getting in on this insanity forum. I'm on wk 2 day 6 tomorrow. I will have gone two full weeks without giving up! haha. Yesssss. Shawn T - "C'mon ya'll, Lessssss GOOOOOO!!" hahaha love it. If I actually make it through this alive, ---- I'll be a newborn for Halloween and go naked. I've got before pics up but I'll post…

yay good luck.

No! Don't give up! I agree on the whole 6-7 in three weeks. And that's significant. I personally have done 10 in about three weeks and I felt great! If you want I'm also willing to share recipes. I find what helps me is staying super busy....leaving money at home while I'm out and when I'm the most hungry but its not time…

Its SO weird how we don't notice the good changes we make until we look at photos from way back when....Unfortunately for me, it was looking at an old super-fit photo of me that made me realize how much I had changed. :/ Good job, you are awesome!

@ nicshaw95 : yes Yes YES! Its the feeling sorry for myself part that you mentioned that makes alllll the difference!

Thanks for the motivation! I'm very excited!

i LIKE you.

Eat more peanuts!!!! If you are eating raw, or going vegan or veggie. EAT NUTS. they are filling, high calorie and high in protein. I've been there, You just wonder what else is there besides what you are used to eating. Try hummus with veggies...lots of raw carrots or celery in organic peanut butter. You pretty much have…

I too have a three month old! I luckily have a husband who will watch the kids while I go to the gym every night. But If that's not an option, you can walk and walk and walk with an ergo carrier. They are the BEST. Super comfy.

I feel you. No one I know tosses high-fives for the small stuff and I never really have much weight to loose. I still have fitness goals that for me are way HARD! Haha, So, here is a slap on the back to you from me :) Good job. You look great.

My four year old, and you KNOW she's telling the truth.

Don't be ashamed. Realize it could be worse! just start with where you are now. There is nothing worse than the thought "If I had actually followed my eating plan I wouldn't be the same (or heavier) than I was three weeks ago when I ORIGINALLY wanted to start"

A gallon of SKIM ?....Every day!
