I just started with Spark People a couple of months ago, so I'm nowhere near needing to reset the articles or polls, but I think it would be a great idea to have a reset button for both. I read below how to reset the articles, so I appreciate that tip.

If they reset the polls maybe they could have a comparison of data from when you first took it to now? That way you can compare what you said a year ago (I would say reset after a year.) to now.

I didn't know you could restart the articles! Thanks for the FYI! I agree, some of my answers have changed on the polls. I would like a redo...with points, of course! LOL!

Me, too.

And add a reset for Health A-Z.

I find my motivation coming back some after the reset for Healthy Lifestyle articles.

I'd like to be able to reset, too.
I've changed and my answers have also changed accordingly.

I agree I have done all the poll questions so long ago. I wish it can be reset and have several new ones a week.

I'd LOVE to have a reset button on the polls. In fact, I was just thinking about that today. Plus, a lot of my answers have changed since I took the poll the first time.

I thought of that too Nenato2, but nothing ventured...

Also, some of my answers have changed after 15 months.

I am very thankful for the reset for the articles though!

I also ran out of polls months ago. Every Monday or so there is a new one. I don't know if resetting them is such a good idea. If SP is collecting the data for stats then if we "re-voted" on the same poll, then the data would not be correct. However, if nothing is being done with the data, then a reset would be great.

Right now there is no reset for the Polls.

But for the articles, you can reset the last 6 months!

Go to your Start Page, and just under the large Start - it will welcome you to your page by name and under that is Account/Email Preferences - click on that.

Follow down the page until you see Reset Articles and just hit the button that also says RESET ARTICLES and you're done!

I do hope they give us a Reset for the Polls soon. Although I am discovering I do still have about a dozen left and they seem to add a new one weekly.

Have you gone to the Polls page and scrolled slowly to see if you missed any? I missed a lot of them before I started going to the Polls page directly. It makes me dizzy to go scrolling down that page but at least I am earning 3 points each time, lol.

Good luck with your program!

Hugs,
Linda

How do you reset? I have read all the articles and taken all the polls and is losing 9 points a day, because there is nothing to read.

Oh I agree 2BFree2Live!

I find the articles are even better the 2nd time around! I tend to get more out of them.

And we really could use more A-Z Health articles too.

After 15 months of being active on SP, we do tend to go through everything already available.

I do appreciate the new reset button as I have started reading the articles again I can relate to them from a different perspective.
I would like to see more A to Z health topics, I find them very helpful and informative.

I just ran out of articles today so I was thrilled to learn I could reset them in my preferences.

How about a reset button for polls too please? I am almost out of them, maybe 2-3 left.

Thanks SparkPeople!
