    Hi - I'm Grace, one of the Captains of the NAVY NINJA TEAM! I've been with the BLC (Biggest Loser Challenge) for around 12 years. I've lost weight and even when I gain some back, I'm able to keep it to a minimum with the support and challenge of our teams! I've made life long friends and know they're always there for me!

    Hi, I'm Darlene and am co-captain of the Determined Desert Tortoises with Bonnie. This group has kept me accountable and motivated in such a supportive and fun way. I'm still a work in progress, but have lost almost 40 pounds since joining this group in April of this year. I highly recommend it! Give it a try - you won't be disappointed.

    Hi, I'm Emily aka as mtngrl 😂 and a member of the White Rabbits. Our team is welcoming and friendly. We share healthy tips on eating, different exercise, songs to get your groove on and burn calories, support for those personal challenges we may be going through. If you need a friend you will find one here, a no judgement zone!

    We are just a little different in that you can join throughout the round. You are never too late to join, so if you missed the registration know there is a place for you here. It is also a great place to start if you have never done a BLC before. If you have questions someone is alway here to help you out. As many times as you need, lol! I know, I asked a lot of question! Check us out, you won't be sorry!!

    Hi, I am Cassie, a member of the Bronze Wellness Warriors. I am on a health journey that is supported by my team members. Encouragement or a “kitten” kick, empathy and real friendships are part of the team experience. BLC is my health lifeline.

    I've been a member of the BLC for many years! I suppose since 2009 or 2010! I love it! I am a Navy Ninja and feel like part of a family with our team. We inspire, motivate, calm, reach out and keppp each other on task with all weight loss entails! I thought it was just the Navy Ninjas who were so wonderful, caring and compassionate and they certainly are, but I've learned by doing break challenges in between rounds that the BLC is full of people helping each other with everything! It is not just about weight loss! When you are a member of a BLC team you have a friend and you are never ever alone! Come join us!See what the new year can do for you and with you! ~Melissa, Navy Ninjas~

    Please join us for the next round of the Biggest Loser Challenge.

    If you are looking for something to help you keep accountable or motivated and have some fun at the same time - look no further. I joined the challenge a couple rounds ago and had so much fun. I liked it so much I became the co-captain of Determined Desert Tortoises. Our team, and many of the other great teams at BLC, is looking for new members and we would love for you to join us. The Determined Desert Tortoises are a wonderful group; sharing great ideas, support, motivation, and accountability in such a nonjudgmental way.

    If you are interested in joining the BLC 54 you will need to join our registration team and read about our teams to be ready to join us. Registration runs until Dec 27. Give it a try - you won't be disappointed.

    Hi, I’m dee, one of the Co-Captains on the Minion Cadet Squad.

    If you are thinking about creating a healthier lifestyle, then the BLC is the place for you. It’s a 12-Week Challenge and whether you are just beginning your journey or need a refresh there are an assortment of teams to choose from that can help you along the way.

    The Minion Cadet Squad is a place where lasting friendships are made as we cheer each other on through the ups and downs that life throws our way. Your Squad leaders are here to provide support, encouragement, and help along the way.

    HI there
    I co-captain the Prism Panthers.
    We are a team of mainly weight maintainers, or are near goal weight, and we're a laid back friendly crew.
    Our challenges may not be " run 10 mile a day" in theme, but we're still a fit-conscious band, determined to keep supple and independent into our dotage.
    I've been a co-capt for a number of challenge rounds now, and a team member for many moons before.
    These BLC challenges are a must for anyone who's health conscious and needs a guiding hand. It's all about balance

    Hello. My name is Joanna and I've been doing the BLC challenges since around BLC20 and have lost about 30 pounds altogether. Like the others have said, the BLC challenges are a fun way to lose weight with friends.

    I'm also the Captain of the Resolute Renegade team. If you're not sure what you need to do to lose weight then the Resolute Renegade team might be a good fit for you as we help you figure out your magic weight loss formula.

    Renegades do not do the standard BLC challenges - Weekend Challenge (WEC), Tighten & Tone (TNT), Last Chance Workout (LCW). Instead Renegades do a WeekLong Challenge (WLC), which has 3 team goals that we all do (top 3 rows in tracker):

    • Intentional Fitness Minutes (IFM) - 150 minutes per week minimum is the goal
    • Strength Training (ST), - 3 ST workouts per week minimum is the goal
    • and Eating on Your Food Plan (self-explanatory)

    Please note: Our team doesn't do a lot of chit chat so if you're looking for a team that does that, our team probably isn't a good fit for you.

    Don't let winter slow you down in reaching your goals! There are plenty of ways to keep going with a little help from some friends.

    Determined Desert Tortoises is just that - a group of people determined to move toward their fitness, health, and weight loss goals! It's one of the teams that moved here to MFP from SparkPeople. We are just one of the teams within a larger group.

    Follow the link to the registration site and read all about all the teams. But, please consider joining the Determined Desert Tortoises because we NEED AND WANT YOU!

  • I have lost 50 pounds in 7 months all thanks to BLC - Biggest Loser Challenge. The support of the team environment and the healthy challenges each week keep me focused on me and my health.
    And why is that important? Without health, it becomes difficult if not impossible to do all the things I want to do in my life.

    Is that selfish? yes and no. I need to feel my best, to have strength and energy every day so that I can be there to help those around me. Why when you are flying does the emergency announcement tell parents to put their masks on first before putting masks on their children? Because if the parent passes out trying to get a mask on their child...they are both in trouble. When the parent puts their mask on first...they can do what they need to do to help their child...plus the child can see the parent has a mask on an may be more willing to wear one themselves.

    Let BLC and their supportive and encouraging teams be your lifeline on your journey to better health. They have made a difference in my life.
