SparkPeople.Com

My sister told me about wonderful new health and fitness site the other day. ... but as it turned out it is more than just that...it is a community of people all striving for the same thing: a healthier and fuller life style. SPARKPEOPLE.com is totally awesome!! I love, love, love it!!! For any of you that were on the Alli program, you know that the website was a wonderful to help you stay on track....well spark people is 100 times better. I absolutely love this website. The site provides so many wonderful resouces. My favorite tool is the spark people recipe calculator. So if you are like me and don't always want to eat pre-packaged foods, you can enter in you favorite homemade recipes, and the calculator determines all the nutritional content for you! I can't tell how awesome this is for me. It just makes my life so much easier...no more guessing how many calories were in the sandwich I made for lunch! Anywho, along with the recipe calculator, it provides a nutrition tracker and a fitness tracker...and loads more stuff like instructional videos and what not.
Anywho, I'm finally back on track: I'm exercising 5 times a week, and eating right. I feel absolutely wonderful. My husband has also noticed the change and is loving it! He even wants to get involved! I have agreed to let him be my weight training coach. I don't know if it's getting back on the fitness wagon, or the fact that we are TTC, but I have just been in the best of spirits lately. I wish you guys all the best and Good luck!!!

Wow! Great job! I am soooo impressed. I have not been excercising like I'd like to but I am weight training. And get this, I am using the Bowflex! LOL! I hate the monster that DH uses and I am afraid that I'll drop the weight on my foot when changing them out.

I visited Spark People a while back and signed up. I also love this site and believe the ALLi online isn't measuring up to Spark..,
