Anyone doing the "Insanity" program?

Getting worried about Easter calories!
So I've been thinking all week about what to do on Easter. Normally on a holiday I would just pig out and not think twice...but since I joined MFP over a month ago I have logged in every day and almost always stay within my calorie range.

Is it important to keep track of sodium and sugar intake too
I was just curious as to how many of you also keep track of your sodium and sugar intake daily? I'm fairly new to this site and was playing around w/ all the features tonight and discovered that I can add things besides the calories, carbs, fats and proteins....then I went back and looked at my food diary and sure saw a…
