Ok, so its been about 3 weeks (??) since I started (and then ended) Insanity. I know, I know... but let me catch you up on whats been going on with me!
Starting Insanity with my Hubby was fantastic. For one thing, it got us both excited to get back in shape again. The last couple of months we have both been stuck on the couch wishing we looked better, but not wanting to do anything about it. With both of us starting Insanity... it gave us that boost we both needed.
A week later I was starting to see a trend. Because I was still doing my 3 days a week of boxing, on top of the Insanity workouts... I was eating ALOT! I think in my mind I saw my heavy workouts as a free pass to eat as much as I wanted. BIG mistake.
So, I decided to let my Hubby continue on alone in his insanity... as I focused on my boxing class and my food.
Realizing that I could not do this by myself... and seeing some fantastic results from friends and bloggies... I signed up with Weight Watchers. I have to say that it is much easier then I thought it would be. I sit down every morning and right out my menu for the day... making sure to keep within my point range. With free veggies and fruit (meaning you can eat as many as you want for 0 points) it is easy to stay satisfied all day!!
My weigh in for WW on are Mondays... so I will hold off and give you an update every Monday night!
As for the Insanity... I loved it. It was a workout that pushed you to your max. I will start it again after I am sure that I have my food under control. Hubby is doing amazing on it and has actually gained 5 lbs and is bulking up and looking... well.... MEEEOW!!!!

My wife's outta town for a couple of weeks and I used the free time to double up my workouts. Unfortunately, I had the same end result as you did. It jacked up my appetite something fierce.
Good luck with the WW; I've heard really good things about the new plan.
