Dieting

May - 15 2014 | By

I’m on a quest to lose a few pounds, much like most of America. I’ve decided to go back to what I know works for me and use SparkPeople. The site is awesome. It lets you track everything! Weight, measurements and goals, no problem. Food, meal plans, flexible menus and the ability to enter absolutely anything you eat, absolutely. A community of profiles and support groups to help you achieve your goals, teams galore. Exercise programs to fit everyone, got it. For me, the most helpful tool is where I can track my foods for the day. It gives a range for healthy weight loss that includes calories, carbs, fats and proteins with the option of including other vitamins and nutrients. Totally customizable. Because of my schedule and how active I am, I tend to go a little higher in each category, but I’ve still been able to lose almost 2 pounds per week doing that. The best part is that I’m finding delicious whole foods that satisfy me and reduce cravings for junk. (Quinoa and broccoli rabe are my best friends at the moment.) Eating a cookie gives me a headache now! Healthy never tasted so good 🙂
