Hi emoticon and congratulations on beginning your Spark journey!

There's so much here to help you along the way and excellent advice to setting and achieving healthy goals. With the thousands and thousands of fellow Sparkers you will always find someone you can connect with. I am always amazed how many lives have been changed for the better through the use of SparkPeople.

If you have not already done so, I suggest that you check out the videos in the "Healthy Lifestyle" section. Scroll down for the site orientation videos. That should point you in the right direction. I find that if you just start looking around Spark, you will quickly learn about the wonderful tools available for your use. After being a Sparker since 2007, I still find something new and very useful.

Welcome and best wishes!

Hi! My name is Brittney and I am a 19 year old sophomore student at the University of Central OKlahoma. My first year in college was a lot different than what I expected and although I have lost the twenty poulds that I gained, I would like to loose an additional ten. I hope this website works for me.... we will see.

Chef Meg's Cocoa Crusted Pork Tenderloin
Submitted By: CHEF_MEG

This dish seems exotic, but it uses spices and ingredients you already have around the house. Coffee, cocoa and cinnamon stand up well to heat, and you'll wonder why you've been relegating them to dessert!
Serve this dish with mole sauce!

This amazing dish was inspired by Costa Rican spices. Full Recipe
