Anyone who has ran in the Spartan Sprint?
This is my first mud run and first obstacle course ever! I'd wanted to do the Warrior Dash, being that it looked less extreme, but that's around here in the first half of June, and I didn't think I'd be ready. So now I'm training to hopefully run the Spartan Sprint in August. Just wanted some advice or tips on how to…

Sooo, with St. Patrick's Day right around the corner....
are you planning on.. 1. Celebrating, throwing all calorie counting out the window? (Maybe you'll be too hungover to eat the next morning, and can regain your deficit.) 2. Celebrate moderately? (I know for me, every time I count calories at a social event, I feel like I should have a running tally across my for head.) 3.…

Anyone else end you with really high sugars by the end of th
I'm not eating junk. It's from a combination of fruit and my granola bars. I also like those FiberOne Brownies, which have high sugar, but it's not like I'm eating Hostess Cupcakes. Lol. I maintain a really healthy diet, I feel anyways. I've been ignoring it, but do you think it matters? My diary is open, I believe, if…

How important is it to stay within goal for my sugars?
I always go waayyyy over in my sugars. But this is mainly due to the large amount of fruits and veges I eat when I am following my diet.

Those with kids...
Do you find it harder to diet, having to prepare their food? I maintain, what I think to be, a balanced diet for my daughter,but I still allow her her treats. And other foods she get's to eat (that I don't, lol), like macaroni and cheese, pastas, grilled cheese, etc, for me, make it a little harder. Also, I always find…

I know we're supposed to but...
I know that I'm supposed to be eating around 1200 net calories per day (I'm actually doing about 1100), and that when I exercise, I'm supposed to eat more, but a lot of the days I find that I would have to over stuff myself in order to make up the difference. Is it okay that I finish with a deficit almost every day? I…

Hello :-)
Just wanted to introduce myself. Started using this a little more than a month ago, but then stopped. Trying it again, hopefully, with more success. When I first tried, I wasn't too involved in the community, but I'm hoping maybe it will help me stay motivated this time around. Two years ago, when my daughter was about 15…
