Insanity

Well, I'm guessing the next 60 days will be filled with quite a few complaints about my newest fitness project, Insanity. After a year of working out/losing weight, I wanted one last hurrah to the joy (sarcasm) that is losing weight/dieting. I thought about P90X, but saw an infomercial for Insanity and thought, hey, why not go all out? Plus it's the perfect length... fills the whole summer, and will be over the week before I go back to school. (Yes, the remainder of my summer will be filled with "the hardest workout system ever put on DVD...")


So I ordered Insanity, and it arrived yesterday. I was eager to get started, as I know I'll be eager to get to the end and see the results! I had to get my mom to take all my measurements and the painful before pictures... and I did the Fit Test. It was rough! My dad was like, "Well at least you only have the fitness test to do today, and not the hard workouts."... um, it was HARD! Basically, there are different moves and you're given a minute to see how many you can do.... oh man, I was sweating SO much by the end, it was out of control. So much for an easy day haha. And today will begin the regular workouts... I went on a few message boards and read what people had to say about their first days... I'm pretty scared! But also excited. No one who had been sticking with it was anything but ecstatic about it. Everyone is always so excited about how great they're feeling and the results they're seeing.

So now it's up to me, sticking to my Insane workouts. I sincerely hope they work! (I think that all that stands in the way of them working is me!)... The biggest worry I have is the eating 5 small meals a day recommendation they have. This is to keep refueling you and getting your metabolism to keep going, and that's apparently essential for this to get maximum results! So... I'm going to have to pack 3 little meals in my lunchbox for work every day, which seems like a pain. But since the rest of working out/dieting is a pain, it's not that bad.

ANYWAY, I hope to earn this shirt by the end of the summer! I'll keep updating on this, I'm sure, since I imagine it's going to be ROUGH. But I'm excited!
