Tip For Saving On A Weight Loss Program

Every year, two of the most common New Year’s resolutions among Americans are losing weight and saving money. Here's a way to tackle both goals at once:

SparkPeople.com, a leading diet and health website, just announced that it will begin offering its services for free. While subscription-based companies like Weight Watchers Online and eDiets.com continue to charge between $100 and $300/year, SparkPeople has dumped its previous subscription business model for a free, ad-supported model.

Potential monetary savings? Marketdata, a market research firm that has tracked diet products and programs since 1989, estimates that the average dieter spends about $652 per year on diet and fitness products and services.

So you've got nothing to lose with this SparkPeople offer... except a few pounds.
