Hey guys. I've just recently started Insanity. Before I started it I used to eat about 1800 calories tops. I followed the formulas on the nutrition guide and it says I have to eat about 2500 calories. The first days I ate the meals as written but i felt so full I felt like I was gonna throw up all the time. Do you think I should lower the calories? What would you guys recommend?
I'm a male, I weigh 183 lbs and I'm 5'(9-10)

As you work out more, your metabolism will increase and ask for more food. The more you eat, the more you will fuel your metabolism and keep it raging. Just make sure you are eating good high protein foods, and I'd suggest stick with whole grain carbs. Also make sure you are getting good nutrition with green veggies and a multi-vitamin possibly.

I was thinking I should eat the 2500 calories until my body asked for it, so I've decided to eat about 2000 right now and as I keep on doing Insanity increase the amount of calories.
Thanks!
