As many of us are wishfully hoping this year will bring smaller waistlines, looser clothing & lower numbers on the scales, I thought it might be a great time to post about Sparkpeople.
This site is a great source of information & motivation. You can get recipes, menu suggestion or upload whatever you ate & track your food intake. You can track your actions to see how many calories you are burning. You can create a myspace like profile & gain support from people in similar situations, be they location, pounds wishing to lose, age, or whatever.
Some of the motivation comes from gaining points for activities. Some are as simple as logging on or spinning the point wheel. Others come from tracking food or glasses of water, or meeting other goals.
I haven't tried the online version of weight watchers, but I did have a friend tell me Sparkpeople is incredible similar, only with more options to customize it to fit your life. Oh & unlike the other system, its completely free!
So give it a shot if you are interested in better health.
& good luck!
