Several times a year I host a 90 Day Low Carb Challenge. While our group stays open and active year round, the “official challenges” are a lot of fun!
Our current “Healthy Choices” theme will continue on with this new challenge.
Join us for the 90 Day “Healthy Choices” Low Carb Challenge!
Running: October 20th through January 17th
Feel free to join in (and jump right in!) anytime. Like I said, the group is open and super-active year round, and you are welcome to start on the day you join and participate in the current challenge.
During the 90-Day “Healthy Choices” Low Carb Challenge running Oct 20th-Jan 17th, the goal is to make healthier food & lifestyle choices. Join us for the fun, the food photos & recipe shares, the challenge, and the “healthy choices” mini-challenges along the way!
90 Day “Healthy Choices” Low Carb Challenge Details:
- First, make sure you are subscribed by email at http://www.90DayLowCarbChallenge.com to get Official Challenge updates and notifications. You can also use that link to invite friends to the challenge.
The challenge group is PRIVATE. Only group members can see posts in this group, so you don’t have to worry about sharing your “diet details” or health & weight loss publicly.
- Take a Before Picture! You don’t have to share your pictures, but you’ll regret not having a “before” picture at the end of the challenge to see how different you look. 😀 Take a picture from the front, back and a side view. See John’s Weight Loss Transformation!
There will be an “Official Weigh-In” post in the Low Carb Group each Monday throughout the 90 Day Challenge. These are optional, but a great way to track your progress and stay accountable to your goals!
Each weigh-in thread is linked in the Pinned Post at the top of the group so you can find them easily, and you’ll also receive email notification with the link.
Join the Group and/or Subscribe for Email Notification
- This is not a “Support Group”. This is a CHALLENGE. You will be challenged, you will be held accountable… and you’ll also find lots of support, friendship & encouragement! 😀 If you’re new to Low Carb, have questions or need help, just ask! You’ll be amazed at the support and help you’ll get if you post a request.

“Low Carb” and “Healthy Choices” Explained…
For the purposes of this challenge, your goal will be to eat 20 Net Carbs per day (max) for 90 full days. While I don’t personally do Atkins or Phases this is a great Low Carb Food List to get familiar with low carb foods.
I recommend you use MyFitnessPal with the Keto Hack to track your meals closely.
For the current challenge, we have a fun “Healthy Choices” Theme so you’ll want to watch for posts from me on that, and watch for the Emails with specific details on any mini-challenges in the group. Participation in the theme, or even in the weekly weigh-ins, is not mandatory, but the mini-challenges should prove fun!
There are currently 27,853 members in the challenge group (as of 9:30pm Eastern on 10/18/2014) – and growing! I expect we’ll top 30,000 members for this challenge easily, if not more. 😉
If you’re a merchant, brand or have a website of interest to the low carb community, or healthy lifestyle changes, get in touch with me to discuss sponsorship and advertising opportunities.

*NOTE: For low carb questions, or challenge-related questions, please leave a comment below or post in the Low Carb Group. That way your question doesn’t get lost in my inbox or FB messages. Thanks! 😉
Let’s kick this off STRONG…
See you there!
Best,

I have high cholesterol and diabetes, so my question is how will this diet affect the cholesterol levels with it being a high fat diet. I’m all for the low carbs, but I’m wondering how this can be good for my high cholesterol levels?

What happens if we go over 20 on a particular day? I started Monday and was doing great but today I ate a Schlotzsky’s turkey avocado salad and it turns out it has 41 carbs! That was without the croutons or garlic bread. Well, since tomorrow is the first, I can just make a new start. I really really reeeally want to try and make it the whole 90 days on track.
Thanks for this website and challenges – I love it!
