Welcome UAC-June Members!

Some of you have been with this challenge for months and some are brand new. I can tell you that it is one of the hardest challenges to stay with throughout the entire month. FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS!! Log every BLT (Bite, Lick, Taste). Stay strong and true to yourself....YOU WILL SUCCEED!!

Please feel free to share as much information as you feel comfortable sharing about yourself with the rest of the group. I look forward to getting to know all of you a little better. GOOD LUCK!

    Hi y'all. My goals for June are to lose at least 4 lbs. I have a total of 22 to lose to be at goal, but that seems like a daunting task, but 4 lbs doesn't seem as hard. At 55, it's really hard to get a stalled metabolism started, but this challenge will also keep me accountable to working out or moving every day and that helps rev up my metabolism. Looking forward to meeting new inspirational people too.

    Hello everyone. I'm Jessica and I have been looking for an accountability group for next month and VOILA! I'm up for the challenge. I am a wife and mother of three. I am wrapping up JMs 30DS and plan to start something new (not sure what though) next month. Hoping to keep it all together and work towards my goals daily...I want to lose these last 20 lbs. I'm looking forward to sharing ideas, stories and success.

    Hi all,

    I am new to this group / challenge

    I am a returner to MFP, I had managed to lose all but 15 lbs of my excess weight but over the last two years its came back and brought some friends. Time to lose it all again and maybe a little extra ..

    I have been a member of challenge groups in the past and they really keep me on track.

    I'm 44 from Scotland and my aim for June is to lose 1/2 a stone and a few inches :)

    Hello!

    My name is Kelsea. I'm 25 years old and am from Minnesota, USA. I have been a part of the UAC family for 7 months, have lost 25 lbs with the group, and reached many other fitness goals with their support.

    I would like to lose 5 lbs by July, which sounds small, but summer (US summer anyway) tends to be the toughest time for me to stick with my healthy lifestyle, so I'm keeping my goal realistic.

    My non-weight goals are to improve my core strength (hopefully get some visible abs in the future haha) and increase my cardio (I've been trying for awhile now).

    Welcome, newcomers! Welcome back, veterans! Let's do this! :smiley:

    Hey everyone,
    My name is Madi, I am from Louisiana, USA. I'm a reservist in the military and need extra help reaching the standards and passing my physical training tests. I am always up for a good challenge and hope this group will push me to my goal.
    My non-scale victory goal for this month is to be able to do 10 pull ups.
    Wishing everyone good luck on their goals this month!

    Im kinda off topic, as I've already done my intro. But, Im actually starting to get nervous as June 1st looms. My motivation is really low right now, which is why I'm here. My biggest struggle is mental. I know what a healthy diet and lifestyle is, but my mind is pushing against it all the time. Does any if you want an accountability buddy on Whatsapp/Viber? I'm on London time.

    I'm new to this challenge. Recently gained about 10 pounds and need to get that plus 10 more off. I typically eat very healthy, but recently picked up some old eating habits that leave me feeling less than my best. Logging daily on MFP seems to help me stay on track. So this challenge looked perfect for encouraging me as I return to everyday logging, whole foods and remembering to stay active.

    We are setting up some weights for out sons that I'm looking forward to using. We also have a number of home projects that will help with the "stay active" thing. I also enjoy gardening, walking and biking.

    Hi All

    I'm Alyson and this will be my 3rd month with the UAC. It's a really great group of supportive people with an awesome leader in @RangerRickL and is really helping me stay on track even when the scale isn't cooperating.

    In June I am hoping to reach the weight that I had originally set as my target before revising it down 2kgs a couple of weeks ago - I still plan to celebrate that milestone though.

    Good luck to you all and may we all reach our June goals.

    Hello. I'm Simon a 21 year old from Kentucky that has been working on my weight loss aswell as my health, This'll be my second month with the UAC. May was a very good month for me but I'm hoping to make June even better with my weight loss progression aswell as my sodium levels.

    My goals for this month will be

    - Lesser salt on my food as my sodium is just too high
    - 25 Miles walked a week
    - and to lose 10 pounds

    Cheers - Simon

    Hi everyone my name is Priscilla and this is my fourth month with UAC. As you can see from lots of us returning members this is a GREAT group to be a part of. I am so excited to see all our new members and am really looking forward to sharing your journeys with you. I try to focus on the positive and let go of any negativity I gather throughout the day as I truly believe that a positive attitude is needed for success. To date I have lost 23 lbs with MFP and I absolutely love the program and this group. :) So welcome everyone new and experienced :p lets Rock this month! B)

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm Tina and I live in upstate New York. This is my third month with UAC. Like @shauna30 and @phoebelayla I like to exercise, it is my food choices that I need accountability for. I'm excited to work toward the winners circle!

    Hello, I am Bob. I am retired and kind of wanting to stay active and healthy. I lost a good bit of weight a while ago but I still have to pay attention or it sneaks back. I have been allowing a kind of 5 pound oscillation but it is looking like I landed on a new higher equilibrium. I want to get it off. I figure it is going to take some exercise. Might as well have fun.
