The SparkPeople Diet
Meals
four-stage diet program which uses tools, content, and
support to help users make lifestyle changes. Users are
prompted to enter height, weight, and amount they intend to
exercise, as well as a target date and weight. The site then
gives recommendations for calorie, fat, and carbohydrate intake
based on calculated BMR, as well as a personalized fitness
plan. Users can enter the foods they eat and exercises they
complete and are given feedback via charts and prompts on their
progress. The site also has numerous articles on nutrition,
fitness, motivation, and general health. Support is provided
through other users and experts on messageboards as well as
from social networking features like member pages, teams of
users with some common bond (like quilting or college
students), and blogs.
