    You can treat yourself to something good and fatty once a week, it won't hurt you. In fact it will probably help your sanity.

    I have 1 "fat day" a week where I eat a bad breakfast and a bad dinner. I live by it. I'd go nuts without it. In fact today is that day. Buffalo chicken wrap and taco doritos :)

    Sounds pretty delcious! For a while I would do cheeseburgers and wings on Fridays, but I find the less I eat that stuff, the more it wreaks havoc on my digestive system when I do eat it. :D

    I hear ya, my tastes have changed since I changed my diet - McDonalds makes me gag nowadays, I can't eat canned soup (I can taste the sodium - ugh), and I can't eat much processed stuff anymore - it's weird how your tastes change if you eat healthy. That said, I still love me some buffalo wings and a beer :D

    Cheat days are good for you. If you eat the same stuff day in and day out your body will not produce all the proper enzymes it need to stay healthy because it will think it will no longer need them. Cheat days will help to counter balance this and keep your bpdy producing all it should be. I would highly recommend one a week just don't get discourage if you gain 2lbs back from one day you can have alot of fluxes with your weight when dieting. Just stay positive and keep at it. My weight has only dropped about 2 or 3lbs since late december there have been peaks and valleys during that time but the key is I have lost 3 inchs off my stomach and put 2 inches on my arms. Right now I'm about 150 and 5'7" with 32 inch stomach and 14.5" biceps but my goal is 16" and get my 6pack back.

    +1 to that; I've only been using P90X for a month; my weight was 199 when I started and it's only fluctuated between 198 and 193 (mostly 196-198 though), yet I've already lost an inch off my waist and I'm approaching gaining an inch on my arms.

    Since we like to keep in shape here in Afghanistan, we've went back and forth between P90X and Insanity. Here is my opinion... P90X-we did more mucle workouts, such as pull ups and other wieght training, it was still circuit training but wasn't focused strictly on the cardio. It was a good full body workout that definitley has its placed among the workout programs. Insanity-is all cardio, and it can be intense at times. We haven't used any weights or worked to build targeted muscle groups. Just increased heart rate with limited breaks or cool downs. The program only used body weight for resistance with repetitions in circuit training. We are currently working on this program. Last week I lost 4.5 lbs. I came to Afg weighing about 191-192 lbs. I am currently 170lbs. and have a few months left of thrashing myself before I go home. My target weight would be 165 lbs, but I think I'll be passing that goal this week or next. I would love to be able to pair the exercise with a excellent diet, but in my line of work, we eat what they bring out to us. So there isn't any cheat on diets for me, I get what I get. The only extra effort I give is to not eat any sweets that we get in care packages. In that case, I just give that stuff away asap. Both are excellent programs.

    yeah i finally did the kempo workout out(cardio) for p90x tonight....awesome workout....and i know insanity is really really intense cardio so depending on how the next couple weeks go, if i have the energy i honestly might do p90x, followed up by insanity on a daily basis cuz when i work out i love to push it super hard.

    To make a long story short, 1 year ago I was smoking a pack and a half a day and drinking massive amounts of scotch nightly. That was 25 pounds ago. Tonight I had my first Opus X. I love new horizons!
