    I am a former SparkPeople member, but I have been on this site for a while. I have been doing Weight Watchers lately, but it is not working for me now. I need something where I can track my macros a little more closely. SparkPeople is now People One and I have been on there, but do not like it as well as this site. I think this site will help me get where I need to go more than any other site. So, I am ready to go. I just wish I could connect my WW Bluetooth scale to this site. But, I guess you can’t have everything. 😁😁😁 My screen name on SparkPeople was doodleb54. Hope to see some of my friends here.

    I'm late to this thread, but I was a member of Spark People since 2017 and I miss it quite a lot!

    As was I. The main thing I used to get from there was ready made menus. Oh well. It'll be cool though.

    Hello, Inga from SP here, miss all my old friends, hope to make some new ones. I am still working with the People One website and I have been on MFP since our beloved Spark People ended. Add me if you wish and let me know a little about your journey. HUGS!

    Just joined this site today. I joined Sparkpeople in 2017 and miss my many friends from there. Who knows, maybe some of them might find me here…I would like to think so….

    This is to let all former Sparkers know we are here. We ran our 5% Challenge Seasonally on Spark starting in 2010 until they closed. The transition of moving here wasn't easy but after a full 5 seasons, it's like we've always been here on MFP. Whether you are a former challenger or totally new to us, you will find a warm welcome in our Community.

    The Official 2023 Spring 5% Challenge is open to join. After joining, remember to choose a team to participate in.

    You can find the 2023 Spring Team here

    See our FAQ here.

    Hi everyone. I hope all is well. I am doing okay. Today is supposed to be a nice day. I was going to go to the gym, but I think I will just get outside and take the dog for a walk. It depends on the weather. In Michigan the weather can change from minute to minute. It is supposed to get warmer though. I really need to get around this app to find some blogs on building meals and such. I did see a good recipe for shrimp and mango salsa. I bought some mango and peach salsa at Meijer’s when I went shopping. I just need to get some shrimp. I can get that today when I go to gas up the car. I really want to try that recipe. It looks delish. Got to get going. See you soon!

    Very cool! Looking at this on my phone so I've got a small screen to work from. It appears these posts are old, but it's neat to see there is a landing spot for former Sparkers. I miss SP, too. Mostly using the food tracking on MFP currently at the recommendation of my dietitian. Starting to get the hang of it.

    Aww i didn't know this forum existed, I would haved joined as soon as Spark People disappeared. Its been so long i had to look up my username. I was SilverSparrow04 over on Spark People but you can call me Sandra. I follow workout videos on YouTube and swim. I am currently following Caroline Girvan's Fuel workout program and I am training for a 1 mile sea swim in June. I have borderline high cholesterol and am aiming to decrease my body fat percentage to an acceptable amount.

    I used to be under Phoenix rising and many other names there my mom who is on here I actually introduced to spark people in 2008. However I now have to consider my health because next Tues morning she is going under the knife for back surgery. And on top of that I have one knee bone on bone and I have been sick for months and I need my sugars under control

    Hi everyone! With the help and support of MFP's tools and folks, I'm hoping that I can begin to make my health and fitness a priority again. Looking forward to making friends and getting fit here. ~ Summarah

    I was on SP a few years ago and when I went back to restart . . . it had GONE!

    I used to be on SparkPeople myself for years. It was disappointing to see them go. I had a few friends from groups that I used to belong to from 2011 to 2018. If you were one of them please feel free to add me as a friend.

    Hi All, Do you know there are some Spark People articles and videos still available online?

    This is in the Pre-Challenge Activities#1 on the 5% Challenge.

    quote"In doing some research to write these activities, an older article was found on the internet that discussed Team Challenges and our own 5% Seasonal 5% Challenge was highlighted. Our own @kaliswalker (Lynn), one of the original founders of the 5% Challenge, was interviewed ~ here is the link to the article. It discusses the importance of teams, but our own 5% Challenge was in the spotlight in this article that was written in 2016.

    We are so happy MFP gave us a new home! The challenge is still run the same way it is outlined in the article written in 2016, on a smaller scale but we are growing here and we have come to love MFP just as much as we loved Spark People!

    Interested in the Summer 5%? Here is the link
