    Good luck with all your goals. I have goals that I am trying to stick to. Although I am healthy overall, I am committed to doing cardio and weightlifting. Eat even healthier. I am going to run/walk in a 5K this spring so hold me to it. lol!

    All the best.

    I watched a preview of one of those Tough Mudder events. Holy Crap! You'd better get crackin'! LOL! I would do one of those. Looks fun and sorta dangerous! :) Will see if one is going to be near me.

    Friend me up if you want. I try to stay involved and help motivate my MFP peeps!

    I just watched a few more Tough Mudder videos. I am addicted to the idea now. :) I am in no way ready for such and event, but gives me something to strive for. One in April near me (2.5 hours) and another one in August (2.5 hours other direction) Maybe ready for the August one. I would rather it be too hot than to cold.

    Those tougher mudder look insane - well done for giving yourself such a goal, sounds great and something to really look forward to (if they're the right words!!)

    Feel free to add me as a friend, and anyone else on here.

    Personally I'm into my cycling and looking forward to doing plenty of 100+ miles rides this year, so gotta get right back into the fitness work.

    Good luck :happy:

    Hi Jackie

    Welcome to MFP. I am relatively new to this site and I am loving it. I am getting into the habit of logging foods on my food diary as and when I eat it. Its so easy to keep track and its great having the app on my mobile so that I can log in anytime.

    Sending you a friend request so that we can support and motivate one another.

    Hello, and welcome. I'm new on here too. I'm looking to find other people in the same boat as me. I'm logging daily now, used to on WW, so it's familiar, without the points. I also got a Fitbit One at Best Buy which u can sync with ur MFP acct.

    Hi & welcome. I'm kind of a newbie as well. I had this app since Sept but came into the forum today for the first time. I love it even though I haven't been diligent on it, but hope to start fresh now.

    Hi just wondering where your doing the tough mudder? (And hoping its close by lol)

    I've got this on March 2nd www.thenutschallenge.co.uk and again in September my kids do this . . . Www.warrioradrenalinerace.co.uk (next one is April) and I was looking into tofu mudder and the pain barrier but can't decide which!

    Have you seen this group? It might be of interest to you,
