SparkPeople again

Over the past couple of months I've been slacking in the health and fitness area of my life. Now I can see and feel the effects on my body. So last week I decided to get back on track. I started using SparkPeople again and I've already lost 5 pounds. It feels amazing when that happens.

Hopefully next week I'll have finished planning my fitness routine and I'll be back on track and in decent shape.

Right now I'm just trying to stay within the food boundaries I've set for myself. The hardest thing I've had to deal with so far is not drinking any beer and not eating as much bread. I'm finding that vegetables are a great way of filling me up as a snack versus having a couple slices of bread with butter.

Anyway,

SparkPeople is a free tool that helps you do things like track the food you eat, calculate the total number of calories you've consumed, track the amount of fitness you've done, and track your weight. It will also chart your progress so you'll have a visual representation of how well you're doing.

The best things about the site is it's free to use. It's definitely worth checking out.
