Thanks for stopping by my blog. A lot of people are skeptical when the P90X program lists higher calorie intake then they think is necessary. I would say that it also depend on how hard you are working. Many women who are working toward toning and not true muscle building can get by with fewer calories. I did not follow the nutrition plan to the letter, but did use it as a guide. I probably was between 1600-1800 cals on most days. I’ve joined another site called iChange.com, which has really helped me track my calorie intake. It is free to join and you can choose from two registered nutritionists to help you out and the support community is great too.

I am about to start P90X. I am 5′8 and have about 30 pounds of excess body fat. According to the diet program they list, I could do the level one plan eating about 1800 calories. This freaks me out. It seems like a lot of calories to lose 30 lbs–but I want to get results like the people you see in the programs. Would I be screwing up if I increased only to 1600 or, am I better off following it as it recommends? Do I need those extra calories to be able to complete the workouts? Any thoughts? Thanks so much, and good for you! You look great!

Thanks for sharing your photos. Knowing that it can be done and seeing someone who’s worked hard to get there is a great motivator to start trying.

Awesome & very inspiring indeed! I’m on Day 14 of P90X and really like it. That said, I’m already a HUGE fan of Beachbody – totally awesome programs that work.

What are your thoughts on supplements during the P90X program?
