SparkPeople.com

I’ve been using SparkPeople.com for about 4 month now and I thought I’d tell you a bit about it.

SparkPeople is a website to help you keep track of your food intake and physical activity and help you with the calculations based on the data you input. The site has a decent amount of food in its database, and as more people use it more data is avail to the general population on the site. This way if your the only one that eats Product X you would be inputting the data into the website so the cals and other stats can be tracked. When someone else eats this Product X you will save them from inputing the data again since its already in the DB. They have a “SparkPoints” system where they reward you with points for different tasks you complete daily (food intake, exercise, logging into the website, posting in the message board and drinking at least 8 cups of water a day). I tend to go to the site as soon as I get to work after checking my email. The site is quick to access and use, and it takes me only 3 mins or so to put my workout data in. You can also track your weight and measurements too. They provide you with a downloadable measuring tape so you have no excuse to quickly measure yourself.

SparkPeople.com is good stuff, and if your like me and hate to do the math and keep track of stuff, this site makes it quick and easy to get these tasks done with little effort.
