Someone on one of my SparkTeams (Go Missourians!) asked us to "Name one thing that Spark People has started you to do."

A million things popped into my head : Track food, track exercise, connect with other people...but really, one thing covers it all : SparkPeople has started me making informed choices.

Because I understand the caloric cost of what I eat, because I understand the benefits of different types of exercise, because I have contact with so many other people, all striving to make a better life, I am better able to choose which foods, which exercise and which groups and friends help me most.


So maybe in the end it isn't so much informed choices that SparkPeople has started me making, but informed living.
