I'm just about to start Insanity again. Month two is a killer, after I finished I cut back to doing mostly the month 1 workouts and cardio abs three times a week, but I fell off the boat this winter. Happy to say that my fit test results are still at about 80% of when I finished; 100% for some.

Insanity works, I did it to lose the babyweight and then self train for a marathon. I swear by it! I bought mine off of Craigslist for $40, seriously best investment of my life.

You must be dedicated and follow the program. Sure you can miss a day every now and then but 99% of the time you must do the daily workout.

If you don't mind my asking, how much baby weight did you have to lose and what was your starting fitness level? I've also got baby weight to lose.

PP here, Insanity helped me lost about 25 lbs of baby weight. I was already at a good level of fitness, did an hour of cardio, usually elliptical 5 times a week. But the weight wouldn't budge. A good friend suggested Insanity, I got for cheap via Craigslist so I thought what the heck. It clicked with me. I used it in conjunction with my regular cardio, so some days I was doing Insanity and a cardio. I also really streamlined my diet, using the app My Fitness Pal, to eat a high protein (at east 80g per day) diet with a certain calorie restriction. It took me about 2.5 months to lose all the weight, but I was fully committed.

IMHO Insanity alone, without any other exercise or diet changes, is not enough to get you significant weight loss. BUT it is a great supplement, something to get you going, over the plateau. It really helped me with toning. i had been trying to lose the last 25 lbs for 6 months and this finally seemed to make it work. You can take it anywhere, it doesn't require extra equipment, just a DVD player or computer. I have taken it with my on vacation and done it in teeny tiny flats overseas.

It is expensive, so check Craigslist. I got mine, sealed, for a great price.

I have found insanity, while different, has not been as hard as advertised. (though I had a decent workout routine before). I am adding in extra cardio some days - and weight training. Agree with pp, for many folks would not be cure all to lose the weight.
