Help With SparkPeople on Weightloss

Weight loss help website, www.sparkpeople.com, has been attracting a lot of praise these days for their free supportive services. "The biggest overall finding for us is that people should stop dieting... SparkPeople has reinvented weight loss by making it fun and energizing," writes the Cincinnati Enquirer. "When we discovered SparkPeople it was immediately clear that they were on to something — their users were using the site in a very engaged way," adds AOL Founder Steve Case, talking of his decision to support the exercise weight loss site. "Once people get connected, they become very loyal to the site and it creates a strong network effect. That sense of community is very important when people are making life-changing decisions, such as how to lose weight." In this article, you'll learn more about why more than 7 million members have joined the SparkPeople network.

Once visitors arrive at www.sparkpeople.com, they'll be asked to complete a quick, free registration form to receive their free weight loss help. What makes this site unique is that members are not hassled to buy anything and 100% of the site's revenue comes from very subtle advertisers and sponsors. Users enter their height, weight, amount they intend to exercise, weight and target date to receive recommendations for calorie, fat and carb intake. The main interface promotes three main areas of interest: My Tools, My Content and My Community. In the Tools section, individuals can track their nutritional intake, their fitness and exercise regimens and weigh-in or measure themselves every so often to chart their progress. At the top, the "My Nutrition" tab takes people who are interested in losing weight naturally to a page where they can input the foods they eat throughout the day, which automatically calculates how much calories, carbs, fats and protein they've consumed. There are also customized meal plans and weekly shopping lists for people who do better with a structured routine.

The best feature of www.sparkpeople.com weight loss help is the ability to create a customized meal and fitness program that will help members achieve their natural weight loss goals in a healthy way. By entering their age, height, weight, goals and deadline, they will receive personalized guidelines for how much protein, fat, carbs and calories they should be consuming each day. They may then choose to follow a suggested meal plan or simply enter what they're eating into the system to calculate how well they're doing. Some people may realize they're not choosing to eat enough protein each day or they'll decide to skip that extra helping of pasta when they see how high their carbs are for the day. They can also add their exercise and calories burned for a better portrait of their health routine. The "Weigh-In" section lets users keep a chart of how much they've gained or lost over time. While these tools are all helpful, users also say they enjoy the communal support, the healthy recipes and the informative articles on natural weight loss information the site provides.

Some people start with www.sparkpeople.com for weight loss help, while others prefer to read their new best-selling book, The Spark, first. The Spark author and CEO Chris Downie says the book includes a 28-day weight loss program with medically-approved fitness and nutrition tips, along with "27 secrets to success" from www.sparkpeople.com members who've achieved their goals, inspirational member success stories from people who've lost 2 to 200 pounds, an illustrated workout program, a 16-page before-and-after photo/story collage, a step-by-step mix-and-match food plan teaching how to combine foods into satiating recipes and Downie's personal story of battling social anxiety that inspired the SparkPeople system. "We all know that just knowing what to eat means nothing if you can't stay motivated," Downie summarizes. "And it just won't stick if it's too hard to incorporate into our real lives." Downie continues, "Millions of people are freeing themselves from the over-promising, all-or-nothing, unsustainable diets that set them up for failure and yo-yo weight swings. They are embracing a weight-loss and healthy lifestyle system that breeds confidence, success and momentum by starting with manageable changes, makes weight loss fun and energizing, and turns it into a springboard for achieving other goals that change lives, not just waistlines."
