The Insanity Challenge

Oh I am so so excited about this! The other day I was watching a TV ad for a workout program called Insanity by Shawn T. Now I have done hip hop abs by him before and needless to say he is not my most favorite person to watch or listen to while I'm working out but I am so excited to try this out! After I get done with this work out which is 60 days long I am then going to move onto ChaLEAN Extreme my sister did that one and she had amazing results. So I am ready to start this and really truly challenge myself to lose the weight. Devon and I are planning on going to Chicago for Christmas to see his family and my goal is to look smokin before we go! Plus the truth is I really need to shed a few pounds. My family has a lot of health problems ex. my dad, my Dad's Mom, my cousin, my mom's dad all have type 2 diabetes. My niece has type 1 diabetes, but I am way past that to end up with type 1. My Dad has had 2 heart attacks. I don't want to end up living that type of life. Plus we really want to get pregnant again and everything I have read says that you increase your chances of getting pregnant when your in shape. So I have several things motivating me right now!!

Jenna!! Good luck with Insanity, because it IS insane!!! I'm doing it right now and it is the hardest workout i've ever done. And I used to run 8 miles every day! If you arent working out now, you might want to start something before you start this. Starting cold turkey will just kill you! And DONT FORGET TO EAT!!! you will need it! But it is awesome!! You will be able to tell that you are improving and building muscle by the end of the first week! Its great :) Good luck!!!
