Get “The Spark” To Begin Your Weight Loss Journey!
Begin Your Weight Loss Journey By Learning Successful Habits of Sparkpeople “Losers”
Chris Downie’s “The Spark: 28 Day Plan to Lose Weight, Get Fit, and Transform Your Life” is based off of the winning weight loss tips and strategies culled from the online weight loss support forum: Sparkpeople.com. Sarkpeople is a free website which offers healthy recipes, workout routines, and interactive forums where members can update each other on how they managed the Holiday season without gaining a single pound or brainstorm about how to avoid a well-meaning, but sabotaging, family member.
Downie founded Sparkpeople on a couple of key weight loss philosophies: Crash diets do not work. Fad diets do not work. Rigid, strict, deprivation diets do not work. As a matter of fact, deprivation and starvation will eventually lead you to “rebel” and undo whatever progress you managed to make on a lose-weight-quick diet. Simply put, if people are able to achieve healthy, long term weight loss, it must be done by erasing the word “willpower” from your vocabulary. As anyone can attest that has been on one of these crazy diets, it is probably not realistic to think that you can subsist on cabbage soup for the rest of your life!
How is “The Spark” helpful as you begin your weight loss journey?
Advice and tips put forth by the “successful losers” of Sparkpeople will give you the tools needed to succeed in your chosen weight loss program. These core principles are fundamental guidelines you can use, even if you never log onto the Sparkpeople website. Not only that, but “The Spark” is peppered with inspirational stories – not just a fluffy recount of what “losers” did that finally worked, but also what led them to take the first step to lose weight and the ups and downs experienced along the way. Downie himself even tells his own weight loss story within “The Spark” of starting off with 10 minute workouts every day, and how consistency won him increased energy, can-do-attitude, and ultimately led to the founding of Sparkpeople.com.
“The Spark” features practical advice from people who have literally sat in your shoes – who had excess weight to lose, tried many diets only to end up starting all over again, or previously relied on “quick” loss tactics that cause the yo-yo effect. The only downside to “The Spark” is that there are no “secrets” to be shared. Many people search endlessly for the “secret” to take off 10 pounds in a week. They rely on tactics that may work in the short-term but that cannot be sustained. If you’re looking for these tactics, you’ll be sorely disappointed with “The Spark.” However, if your vision is one of building consistency, developing healthy habits, and a new attitude, you’ve found a great resource to give you a jump start on a safe, healthy weight loss program you continue for the rest of your life!
