Yeah, I think it's OK to "clean up" a little, like my decision to say no to seconds on dessert. BUT, you simply must listen to your body. If as a result of cutting those few hundred "empty" calories, you end up hungrier than usual, replace those calories but with something more nutrient-rich!

Way to go on the climbs!
