Recovery Road App
Hey friends, Sorry I've been a bit MIA around here. I hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to let you all know about this awesome app I downloaded yesterday. It's called Recovery Road, or RR. It's available for Android, iPhone, and I believe Blackberry (don't quote me on that). Basically, it has you log your food (just…

Moderation/"Treats"
A challenge for myself this year is to be able to practice moderation and occasionally indulge without going way overboard. Just wondering if others have similar goals and how you all plan on being successful. I had two treats last week while on vacation, and it was good because I was in a restaurant setting, so couldn't…

I'm a recovery compulsive overeater, gained 20 lbs last year, fell in love with fitness this past summer and have been eating pretty clean.

What Am I Doing Wrong?!
Posted this in another group, apologies if some of ya'll are reading it twice ;) Okay, so tomorrow I start week 3 of T25. I refuse to weigh myself or take measurements because I developed a really unhealthy relationship with the scale during Insanity, but I'll take measurements after Alpha. That being said, I can tell I've…

Month 2 Nerves
Hey ya'll! My first post on this group! Yesterday I finished Month 1... Didn't think I'd survive, but by the end, I felt much fitter; I could do cardio power and resistance pretty much without stopping, but the other two I needed more than the allotted breaks. Well, anyways. Tomorrow kicks off recovery week (thankfully)…

Plateau?
I am on week 4 of insanity. So far, I have lost 2 lbs. I feel like generally people lose more than that in 1 month! I am a little bit bummed out and discouraged. I definitely know I am stronger, and I will be taking day 30 measurements on Sunday, so perhaps that will encourage me and highlight the progress I have made so…

Shoes for Insanity
Hey All, This is my first post (woo hoo!). Have a quick question for those of you all who are currently doing insanity or have already completed the program. What shoes did you all find were the best? I'm in week three right now, have been wearing a pair of avia running shoes that I don't think have seen the light since I…

Intro
Hey All, My name is Amina. Figured I'd make an intro post about myself on here. So glad I was invited to this group. This past year, I gained about 25 lbs from stress eating. In April, weighing in at 156 (I'm 5'6" for reference) I decided things needed to change. I started working out with a personal trainer once a week…

Protein Powder?
What protein powder do you all use and like? I'm pretty new to this - been using Designer's Whey chocolate protein powder for the past 3 weeks since starting insanity, but am always open to try something new. As natural as possible. :) Wanted to try Shakeology but it's too expensive. I'm also curious about vegan protein…
