At SparkPeople, we love helping people accomplish big goals—but we believe it's equally important to celebrate the small successes along the way. Each week in the Spark Spotlight, we'll check in with a featured member about his or her proudest moments, biggest challenges and advice for others on living, thinking and feeling healthier. We hope these quick snapshots will help motivate you to keep moving steadily toward your own goals, week by week. This Week's Spotlight: Crystal (SHESHNA) Age: 34 Location: Niceville, Florida Occupation: Full-time mom and student Crystal's Small Success of the WeekWhat’s your overall goal? To not be stuck only reading numbers on a scale. Feeling good and making progress counts for everything. How has SparkPeople helped you? Spark has helped me by showing me that there are so many other people out there going through the same struggles. None of us are alone in our journey. What's your biggest challenge? My biggest challenge has been juggling being a mom and a full-time student while trying to stay active along with eating healthy. Meal prep is an essential part of my journey, hence using SparkPeople for meal tracking. What advice do you have for someone who just joined SparkPeople? Everyone starts somewhere, so don't get discouraged by others' success. You are worth it. Knowing what you're eating will change how you look and feel; SparkPeople's food tracking can be a valuable asset to long-term success.
