Although, I totally agree that message boards provide an AMAZING support system - I have been floored by how much support I have gotten from a simple "I need Help" on a Team Huddle board. SparkPeople is so vast and has so much to offer... it is best to try and get support and find ways to support others by checking out all avenues through the community!!

I'm glad you are getting the support you need. I have set that as a goal for myself. I go into my spark teams daily, and I make sure that I find that person that sounds down, or shows they need support and try to give it to them. It helps them and me.

To everyone try your hardest to do some new movement everyday, before you know it you will be able to something that you did not expect that you could do... This works on flexibility and just keeping active with every muscle in your body and no matter how much you move you have at least one muscle that is not moving...

I agree, the support is so important.

The Team Huddle
Huddle with all of your teams every day. It will serve the same purpose as a Huddle in Football. By the time you have gone to each team you will have read/ and heard in you head Go Team! Woo Hoo! You can do it! Make it Happen! Even (especially) on days where I feel like a lump the Huddle gets me up and exercising.
When going to different pages within Sparkpeople, I adjust the zoom level on my computer for that page. It eliminates some scrolling. For example, on the sparkteams page, I reduce my zoom and that way I can jump back and forth between my teams and huddle without have to scroll down to reach the huddle button. It can save a lot of clicks!!!!
