  • Did it and loved it! You can do it!
  • Ok, let me break it down to you.... I just completed the entitre 60 day Insanity Program. First of all, Insanity is not a program design for weight loss, which I most people dont realize. But it is a program that will help to shape, tone, and build up your cardio endurance. I didnt see any wieght loss with this program…
  • You know people dont want you to succes at something that they feel they can succed at. Or the simple fact they hate for you to be or do better than you. Insecurity warrants for a person to someone in their corner whom they feel like they have leg up on so they can somehow make themselves feel better by an illution of…
  • I've beeen considering smart lipo. My plastic surgeon swears that if I work out it will go away. I have lost a couple of inches around my waist. So I'm going to give it a little time and see what happens. But I do understand your pain. That's where I hold my weight and it so frustrating!!!
  • I'd hate to hype myself up about a significant weight loss amont just to have it come back after I start eating real food. I'd rather do it the relistic way to make sure when those pounds are gone, they are gone for good!...Good luck with your cabbage diet.
  • I workout 6 days a week. I eat a much healthier diet. And I dont beat myself up if once in a while I eat something bad.

  • I will definilty stay! This site is so encouraging and it is an awesome way to reflect daily on your food intake. I love the encouragement and support that I recieve from others who are working towards the same goal as myself. I decided that this is a lifestyle change for me so I have to incorporate as much as I can to get…
  • I have actually continued through my exersises. Although I do workout everyday except for Sundays, at 5:00am for about one hour. I work out at home where of course I keep the AC, ceiling fan on and water on hand. So I guess you just have to find a cooler alternative. Try to do things that you can do inside where it cool.…
  • IF YOU DONT DO IT FOR YOURSELF, THEN DO IT FOR YOUR DAUGHTER...SHE IS SO PRECIOUS AND I'M SURE SHE MEANS THE WORLD TO YOU...... MAKE HER YOUR PURPOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • I think we are suppose to eat those calories...I never can eat all the extra calories that I have... But when I need to cheat it is very helpful...hehehe
  • I have never really been a big soda drinker. But even so I started consuming more water on a daily basis. I will have a Sprite every once in a while but not religiously. A persoanl trainer, I considered it but opted against it because it would be like adding another monthy household bill...which I do not need. Besides I…
  • First of all, I would report her to the Director of where ever she practices medicine at!!!! Second of all, it sounds like the changes that you have made are working wonderfully for you and you are making excellent progress. GOOD FOR YOU...Keep up the good work.

  • Welcome aboard to MFP! You will totally love this site and it's members! I wish you the best of luck in your journey.
  • A pony tail is easiest I think....And yes us AA Women have to take the hair thing into consideration wheather it's a weave or natural. We cant just wash and go. It does make working out a little more difficult. I have decided to get microbraids.....
  • I dont think that a water only fast would be very wise..... Maybe if you decided to cut out all other types of beverages and convert to only drinking water. Now that seems wise-the other idea, not wise.
  • OMG! We were both suckered in....I brought them in the Wal Mart check out line as well. FIrst of al,l they taste like crap, who can even eat them in the first plac?. And you so right, they did absoluetly NOTHING. I ended up tossing the bag into the trash can.
  • I have been doing INSANITY for 16 days...the first few days I lost 2.6 lbs, just to shorlty gain it back and then some. BUT I have lost 8.5 inches total body and I am looking GREAT!!! Toss the scale...its so OVER-RATED!!! When working out you build muscle which is the primary reason why you would see the scale going up…
  • I want piggy back off the last post. Although eating healthy is a great thing, which we all should be doing however, are you incorporating any kind of workout into you lifestyle. In order to see the pounds shed, you must burn some calories. You can even start with something as simple as walking at a steady pace for 20-30…
  • I agree with each previous post. I am on day 15 of Insanity. This program is the BOMB- I just love it. I won's sugar coat it, it is hard, but at the same time YOU CAN DO IT. Go at your own pace but keep up enough to where it is effective. Me and my husband have been getting up doing ours at 5am each morning taking Sundays…
  • You seem to be doing a great job. It sounds like you have plateued with is normal. Its probably a good time to changed up your diet and exercise routine in irder to confuse your muscles.

  • I needed to hear that TODAY!!! I have been working out and eating really good. I know that my workout routine is causing me to build musle and my body is starting to look fierce, however the scale is going up in number, I was a little bothered at first but then I realized that i'm toning up in certain areas and it feels…
