Let's show some love to ourselves by selecting a goal that is going to further your health in some way, whether it be physical health or even mental health.
You could make sure your electrolyte levels are better.
Or commit to more exercise.
Or decide to forgo a bad habit you KNOW is hampering your health from being what it could.
Or start a good habit you've been putting off.
Or simply continue to focus on whatever health-conscious New Year's Resolution you made for last month.
And of course, hit dem Basics!
The Basics? Glad you asked
Love your health by "sprinting," (focusing hard and giving your all) for the whole month. It's only 28 days.
You've got this!

- Planning ahead!!!
- Staying under carbs
- Staying under calories
- Logging and measuring
- Getting in exercise/movement if that's one of your goals
- Keeping an eye on electrolyte levels
- Getting enough water
- Planning ahead!!! Oh, wait. I said that already? Yes, I frickin' did. Because you must! "Failing to plan is planning to fail."

I really need this!! My February goal is to stay away from sugar. And when I say sugar I am also including those carbs that convert into sugar in your body!! I have been so bad for far to long! Time to get back on track and carbs down to 30 grams a day!! Thank you @baconslave1

@baconslave you are the best.
I’ve been all over the place and not in a good way since the beginning of December. Time to buckle down. Nothing big coming up in Feb so NO RATIONALIZATIONS WILL BE TOLERATED.
Goals:
30 minutes dedicated activity daily
Stay within cals and carbs
Triumph over the enabler in my addled brain
It’s a short month, right?

SuperMegaAwesome moon, hmmmm? :huh:

February goal:
1. Positive thinking (doing away with negative comments from others)
2. Workout more
3. Resist my cravings1 -
So I only lost one pound in the whole month of January. Its a bit depressing actually. I am really good about carbs 4 days a week (<20) but on the weekends the beer gets me to about 125 carbs. So here are my goals for February:
1 - log every day. Including the weekends when I give myself permission to have more carbs.
2 - stay under carbs. <20 4 days a week, <100 3 days a week. I'm trying to make this a long term sustainable change, and not just a quick diet.
3 - plan food ahead.
4 - express gratitude every day.

New to the group and new to (intentionally) low-carb eating. I'm aiming to:
1) keep carbs <50 daily (I am still breastfeeding and, according to my research, this is a good starting point)
2) Workout 3x week
3) Log food daily1 -
Two goals:
Daily Steps.
20 carbs.
Today: yes, I did.3 -
I'm In...
2 goals:
More Water
Exercise daily2 -
Let February be the month of progress and determination please. Dedicating to mild cardio (swimming) and lifting three times a week and at least half an hour walk outside everyday. Work keeps getting in the way. I need to remind myself that I am more productive when I exercise indeed. Truth, planning a little ahead with everything will help all goals.3

I'm liking the simplifying of goals I'm seeing. I hope I am choosing wisely, goals to help me love my health this month.
More activity-especially in the AM on non-gym/class days
No chocolate-until I can get my indulging back under control, even dark choc is banned for the month
Wearing my Fitbit again faithfully-it's been sitting on my dresser for 8 weeks. Would be nice to immediately see the effort I'm putting in with spin, yoga, bowling and walking.
Cheers to a short but successful month!2 -
I'm down to participate:
1) Fasting: I've accidentally fasted twice on Monday's now. I think I like this so I'll make it a thing and fast all 4 Mondays in Feb. And I'll continue my regular 16:8 IF schedule.
2) Protein. 100gs a day is the goal.
3) Gym time Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturday or Sunday. 3x a week for the month.
