You're so right Cheryl. My favorite part is when you said:

"My favorite part about SP is that it is forever! A lifestyle change and not just a diet."

It's an adventure, and the outcome? Whatever you put into it, right?

My favorite part about SP is that it is forever! A lifestyle change and not just a diet. I have learned a lot from SP about achieving my weight goal. I also like being ale to ask others questions about things when I am just starting something new. A lot of good ideas, motivation, and education!!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. You can tell by your tracker that you're making some serious progress in your health and fitness journey. Who knew that such a cool and informative website could bring so much inspiration, and the only price is your time, and what you do with it...

My favorite thing about SparkPeople? It's logical--no weird food rules, no low carb madness, no specifics being forced on me and no learning how to calculate "points" when the food labels all have calories and grams listed on them! Seriously, SP allows "everything in moderation" and always pushes the positive. Not to mention the wonderful people we have here to root us on and the free workout videos, health, nutrition and fitness articles and SparkRecipes!
What's helping me the most? The nutrition and fitness trackers. When I started seeing the amount of calories I was consuming, I was finally able to start making informed decisions about what I put in my mouth--instead of just hoping I made the right choices. The fitness tracker helps me visualize what I am burning--I had no idea before how many calories I was burning, or how to make the most of my exercise.

I am obsessed with Sparkpeople and I can't really think of anything I don't like. I know that there are few things where I would like to see some improvement, but still this site is just awesome. I never thought that there could be such a positive community with so many helpful tools.
I am sure my journey would be so much harder if I didn't have Sparkpeople with all those great people and the trackers. I would have given up a long time ago.

As you already know by now that there are tons of tools and information on this website. What is your favorite part of Spark? The interactions with each other? Bouncing health and fitness ideas with each other? Are you a loner? Do you like the articles or do you just want to collect those coveted Spark Points? lol

Also, what is helping you the most in your health and fitness journey?
