Insanity Challenge



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone! I'm starting Insanity on March 15th and I'm so EXCITED!!!!

If you don't know much about Insanity or haven't seen the Beach Body infomercials, it's an intense 60 day cardio workout that has amazing results!

I'll document my progress in this thread.

OMG I saw the informercial on that and wanted to get it!!! You will have to keep us posted on how you are doing!

I got one of their original products P90 (not P90X) and I always seem to lose weight when I do that several times a week.

OMG I've seen these infomercials and they scared the bejeeeezus out of me LOL! Please post a review next week--would love to know how intense it is!

I am breaking down and buying the Ab Coaster. I am getting a ton of cardio in, but my belly is just ridiculous and the only thing right now keeping me from moving down to the next size.....

I was thinking of trying hip hop abs too. It sounds like you recommend it LOL! Wow, 4 inches!!!!

Good luck as you embark into Insanity ;-)!

Hi Desi!

So how are you doing with the workouts??? I would love to hear how you are doing?

My husband and I started Insanity yesterday!!! Wow it really does kick butt!! I think of myself as being in okay shape because I have been doing bootcamp style workouts for over a year now but this workout was sooo fast and I really have to push myself. My husband thought he was going to get sick and he drank too much Water. But we pushed through and felt great for finishing the first dvd. I need to lose about 20 pounds to get to my goal. I was banded in Dec 08 and have been on a plateau for a few months now.

Would love to share the Insanity experiences with another bandster.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
