Hi! This is my third month in the challenge. I lost 5lbs in January and I’d like to lose that in February. In December and January, I was mostly focused on my mental health. This month, I’m focused on physical health.
My doctor wanted me to take a break from keto because some health concerns, but now I got the go ahead to get back to eating that way. For this week, I’m trying to stay under 40g net carbs and next will try to stick under 25g.
In January, I majorly slacked on my walking and exercise, so I’m going to try to get back into it in February.
I also love getting ideas from other people’s food diaries, so please send me a friend request if you want more friends!
Good luck everyone!2 -

It can be very cathartic!0 -

I've lost 45 lbs so far and I've got about 95 lbs to go. My diet goals are primarily to stay over 100 protein and under 90 carbs....with a total calorie limit of 1350. When I first started on my journey I couldn't walk around the block. Walking from my car to my office was exhausting. I now ride my exercise bike 12 - 13 miles a day as well as walk a couple of miles during the day when I am at work. I need to start some sort of weight training but I haven't been successful in talking myself into that yet. My weight goal for the month is to lose 10 lbs and finally get out of the morbidly obese range. This is a great group ....it helps keep me accountable.
well come back0 -

No more daily 5 mile runs or long workouts at the gym, sadly. Gained a bunch of weight and need to get it under control. I excel at stress eating so.... Would love love love to get out of the 150s for February!
welcome to the group0 -

My name is Jason - this is my first/fourth round with The Biggest Loser Challenge! Did pretty well a few months back, but you know, life. Ended up leaving - there was too much going on and I needed to cut back tremendously. I regained 20 pounds in the last 3 months, so my goal right now is to get back to where I was - 140lbs.
I reside in St. Louis, MO with my wife and 6 (yes, SIX) beautiful children. One is 17, so I guess he's not really a child anymore. I work a normal job during the day - I got my Property and Casualty/Life Insurance Licenses recently and now work for State Farm. So, I went from a pretty active daily routine to a sedentary job. Then,4 out of 7 days I help my buddy with his commercial cleaning business. Between those things, and all the activities my kids are in - Band, Dance, Soccer, Baseball, Basketball...and the church functions and other school functions, it is hard for me to get a lot of exercise in. I was getting jogging in every other day - and managed to get to where I could run a mile and a half nonstop. Not in this weather!!!!
The biggest thing I have been working on is my food... portion control, etc. I follow the 16:8 Intermittent Fasting system. It isn't a diet, but more meal timing. I find it works for me - it may not work for you or be your cup of tea. I won't ever say its a cure all or the magic bullet, but it helps me.
I have 20 pounds to lose to get me back to where I was. So, here I am, back at it!3 -
