New years resolutions & teamwork

Are you one of those people who love to make resolutions? Actually keep them for more than a month? I'm sorry to say I'm not part of that group....

Perhaps instead like me you are more the "I'll do my best and be happy with what I can achieve". I've never been a focused,  goal oriented person. I'm a creative person who thrives on getting dirty and figuring out how things work. I REVEL in the process of research and achieving the end result. I THRIVE working alone and being solitary - most of the time.

BUT, I think that makes having a resolution harder when you don't have the support of a team. Heck, pretty much everything in life requires teamwork. Parenting, mentoring, most jobs, I even stress at interviews for daycare families that I expect my ALL parents to work with me as a TEAM to care for their kids. There is no "I" in teamwork. Right?

So, I'm thinking this next year I'd like to focus on losing some weight. I know I'd feel better for sure. It would be better for my hips and the periformis & severe lower back issues I'm having. Perhaps I wouldnt fall as much. And hopefully the severe exhaustion I've been struggling with the last 4 months or so would ease up. With fibro tho who knows if that will help. I'm going to need a team for support and encouragement when I'm not walking so well or struggling with pain.

So, I'm thinking SparkPeople maybe what I need. They have a great app for logging food, water and other details. They also have a great bunch of groups and maybe I can find a group for fibromyalgia survivors. One thing they've offered me as a new member is a new 21 day challenge to get started so I think I'll start there. Feel free to join me!

Do any of you use SparkPeople.com or their app for weight loss or maintenance support? What has been your experience?
