Re: Fit-day vs. Sparkpeople - Another question for Becca

[Guest guest]

Hi Becca,

I have been over to the sparkpeople website, and am having a hard time wrangling

their system. Can you tell me how you were able to change their standards to

your recommended values according to Bee's plan?

I have spent most of today trying to make it all fit my needs but I find that I

am constantly fighting their need for me to eat scads of carbs and cut my fats

down to almost nothing! I keep thinking that if Becca did it, then I can do it

too! But so far, no luck. LOL! Fit day has it's weakness, but I am truly

bumfuzzled by sparkpeople!

I can see that this site has potential, and am hoping that the problem is my

ignorance. If I can change the standards to reflect my personal needs - ala low

carb and high fat, I will be their friend forever! The question is " how " ???

Thanks again,

Becca, I worked some more with sparkpeople and figured out most of my questions.

I found out that if you put too much information in as to your goals and

conditions when joining and setting up your account, the software goes on

" autopilot " and will not allow you to customize anything. I just wiped my

account and started over and now I can easily adjust my goals to fit this

program.

The only question I have left is " HOW DO YOU GET THE PROGRAM TO SUBTRACT FIBER

FROM YOUR DAILY CARB COUNT? " If you can explain this to me, I will be a happy

camper!

Thanks,
