Welcome to Spark. You have taken an important step on your journey by joining!
I've been a member a little over 3 years. I made fantastic progress and lost 100 pounds in the first year BUT I became careless about nutrition and exercise and have gained a lot of the pounds back! I became disgusted with myself and closed my Spark account, but soon realized I NEEDED to be here. I'm back using the nutrition and exercise trackers now - they are so important. The sense of community and the friendships I have made here keep me going!
Explore the site, make your Sparkpage if you haven’t, join teams, and make friends. You will find this site an amazing place full of encouragement, inspiration, advice, and support.
Please let me know if there is anything I can help you with.
Good luck!
Sheila

Welcome to SP! Good luck on your journey!

If you go to the top right part of the page there is a Help function. On that page it explains exactly how to set up a ticker and edit it.

If you want to know if someone replies to a post, when you are writing your comment there is a box at the bottom saying "I want an email to be sent to me when anyone replies to this topic". Check off that box and you will receive an email anytime anyone replies to the respective message board posts.

I just started SparkPeople a couple weeks ago, how do I do all of the cool stuff like tickers? Also, besides email, is there another way to find out of someone has replied to messages and posts, like right from the sight?
