Each day you stay within your calorie range you have used a little of your fat stores!

Know that each day you stay within your calorie range, no matter what the scale shows, you have used a little of your fat stores, and that's what really matters!!

Track vitamins!!

Did you know that besides calories, carbs, fats and protein your Nutrition tracker can track almost ANY vitamin and mineral you consume? And when you are done tracking for the day your Nutrition Feedback Report will contain the info about these vitamins and whether you had enough of them or not!!

Try out some Sparkpeople fitness videos!

You can track some of them on the fitness tracker, they are fun, definitely not boring but not too challenging either!

Do isometrics!

When you sit around in the car/office/etc do some isometric exercises: tighten a muscle group (i prefer abs, hiney, lower- or upper leg muscles) for 10-15 seconds then relax. It is a good strenghtening exercise and after trying it you'll see that it instantly 'wakes you up' even if you were sleepy.

Track on SP vitamins and minerals too that you consume daily!

Sparkpeople can track almost any vitamins and minerals that you consume daily! You MUST know whether you consume the recommended daily amount or not, and SP gives you the real answer! Go do 'My nutrition', click 'Change nutrition goals' and add the vitamins you want to track (I added almost all)

Motivate someone!

Try with all your heart and soul to help someone else, a person that you like and really want him/her to succeed! You'll want to do everything right to be a role model which will make you get results, and also you'll feel really good about yourself for helping!

Pump that hear rate up baby!

Do exercises that elevate your heart rate, make you sweat, make you breath fast!!! Even if you can't do much of it try to do at least a little, it's a much more effective way of burning calories...this way you'll burn AFTER you exercised too, and also your endurance will grow workout after workout!
