Welcome UAC December 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, Id like to join this challenge for December. I'm 63yrs old & have lost 47lbs with 10lbs to go. I've had a problem staying below my calories so I think this challenge will help me

MinorMission

Hi y'all! I am on a serious mission of losing 40 lbs total by May 2018. This group/challenge is perfect because it fits my goals exactly: track and stay under calories and exercise every day. I'm looking forward to having some accountability and healthy competition

Excited for this challenge! I’ve been working on losing 30 pounds for my 30th birthday and have 19 pounds and 5 months to go.

Hello Everyone, managing my diet is the HARDEST thing for me and I’m no good at logging. I’m hoping this challenge will motivate me and help me get in track to better eating habits.

dorkyfaery

Hello hello. I'm new to this challenge. Joining because I have gained 22 lbs since the beginning of 2016 and this has got to stop. I need something to help get me back into good habits and I am hoping this will help.

I want to lose 40lbs by June and have trouble tracking my calories consistently. I am hoping this motivates and supports me to stick with my calorie and fitness goals.

New to this challenge. I have used MFP in years past, but fell off the wagon. I turn 40 in a month and have a family vacation planned in February. I'd love to get fit and just feel good inside and out. I need help staying motivated and pushing me to get things done. I have a son who is very active I sports (currently practices 4-5 times a week). So, it's very easy for me to say there is. I time for me!

Hi, I’m Jackie from Washington State, 56 years old and so far lost 70 pounds.....looking to lose 5 more pounds to get to maintenance....

Hi everyone! I'm terrible at logging my food, eating reasonably, and starting active. I had my gallbladder removed last week and hope this group can help me stay accountable and inspire me to be healthier.

Good morning! I love a challenge. And need things like this to stay focused. I am looking to lose 30 lbs. by summertime. I'm just ready to shed these pounds once and for all. I want to feel more confident wearing clothes that hug my body. I just want to have more energy and sleep better. I also plan on journaling a page everyday during this month. Just freewriting... whatever I think of , I'll write down. And shred the paper if necessary afterwards. LOL

Hello Everyone.. I am looking forward to the consistency that this challenge will provide. I just need to work it.. seems so easy but harder said than done.

Much success fellow challengers!

waywardtravels

Hello! I've consistently logged all of my calories on MFP for over a month straight now, and have lost 25 pounds in the past three months through consistent diet and exercise. I'm half way to my goal of losing 50 pounds now, but would like some company for the journey. I'm looking forward to seeing more progress for myself, and for everyone else in this group!

Cherzeen

Hi! I had a baby 10 weeks ago. I am ready to live a healthy lifestyle. I would like to lose 113 pounds in the next two years. I am 312 today.This challenge will help me reach my goals.

nnoodles22

Hello! I'm 5'1" from Ohio and my goal is to lose 30lbs by June 2018. The most difficult thing for me to manage is absolutely my diet and staying on track (I'm not consistent with MFP), so I look forward to this challenge for some support and motivation!

jnh102492

Hi! I’d like to join this group. I’m renewing my vows after 25 years of marriage in March and need lots of motivation as I want to lose at least 30 pounds by then.

mynacha73

Hi - I'm so glad to see you all here. I've been up and down the scale since I was a teenager, and it's time to not diet, but be healthy. I think this is a great place to start building healthy habits.

amichelel588

Hello all! I am 3 weeks postpartum and am ready to lose the rest of the pregnancy weight and then some! I want to get back to my active lifestyle (baby willing) and would love to be comfortable enough to wear a bathing suit next summer so I can take baby to the lake, pool, etc and enjoy with her and my family. I have a long way to go - about 50 pounds total, but I am hopeful that joining this group will aid me in my journey!

Brand new to the group this month for December! Loved the description and the motivation and accountability that comes with it. Tracking/logging food intake is new for me as I have a busy work life so this app is wonderful!
