Insanity Workout



Recommended Posts

I had my Lap Band done in 2008. I lost about 100 punds and got pregnant in 2010. I am sad to say that I gained most of it back durning the pregancy.

For me 2013, is the year to lose this weight once and for all. I am starting the Insanity workout program today.

The program recomments 5 small meals and total calories of 1,500 for me. I am having trouble eating this many calories...I am just not that hungry.

My question: how many calories do you eat on a exercise program? I want to "fuel my body" but am having a really hard time doing it.

Thanks for your help.

I stay around 1200 calories and have been doing cardio about 4 days a week.

I think you could go to 1200 as well.

I am unique, and have my own quirky ways of doing things.....

When I work out, I have it in my mind that I am going to use the stored fat I have as a my energy...I'm going to "Burn" that source first....

I like to exercise first thing in the morning, before I have anything to eat.....I felt if I ate before I worked out, I would be using what I just ate and nothing else....

I will take 15gm of liquid Protein, my Vitamins, omega's, etc to get my metabolism jump started.........and never had an issue with energy.....(also my morning coffee...can't leave home without it)

Then, after a good workout, my body is screaming to be fed! I want to eat a full Breakfast (if I could)...but I always felt that would defeat what I had just accomplished...so I would have a high Protein, nutritious recovery shake.......

Like I said, that's just my idiosyncrasies....but It helped me......
