Ultimate Accountability Challenge October 2019

RangerRickL

The Ultimate Accountability Challenge (UAC) provides both weight losers and maintainers with incredible accountability partners AND an emphasis on life-changing healthy basic habits.
This is not the flash-in-the-pan 'biggest anything" short-term challenge. This is the real deal!! We are a non-commercial volunteer group with a proven track record of significant team member success.
We enthusiastically welcome our returning veterans and newcomers too!
The accountability is a daily report of:
1)More than 20 minutes of daily exercise;
2) Tracking the caloric intake of both food and beverage;
3) Consuming no more than your chosen limit of daily calories
4)Daily or every third day reporting of your fulfillment of the above.

A non-fulfillment of any of the above equals a Pass Day. There are 3 Pass Days allowed per month
Those who end the month with less than 4 Pass days are celebrated in the monthly Winner's Circle Qualification!!

This is a great challenge. It really makes you think about using those pass days & missing out on the coveted winners circle!

UAC is the ultimate accountability challenge, with friendly and compassionate support from members. Thanks @RangerRickL for keeping us on the straight and narrow.

This group is awesome! Very positive and supportive! I absolutely LOVE it! Accept the challenge you will not be disappointed!

RangerRickL

We are not only working on our healthy habits of tracking all caloric foods & beverages: tracking our caloric intake; intentionally exercising at least 20 minutes per day and daily posting of our efforts and results.
We are also happy to share the non-scale-victories in our lives.
If you are looking for accountability with an uplifting group of team mates/friends, then join us for the October Ultimate Accountability Challenge. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/134186-ultimate-accountability-challenge-october-2019

I love being part of this group. It has really helped me stay on track and helped me get back on track when I take the occasional detour.

My favourite aspect of this challenge is that it has simple guidelines, but flexibility within it for you to meet the requirements in your own way. For example, you must exercise 20 minutes per day, but you choose what kind of exercise that is.
Normally that is good for me as my exercise of choice is a specific sport (brazilian jiu jitsu), however being injured it also helps as I am limited in what forms of exercise I can do currently.

UAC - where practicing accountability happens!

For me, learning to change my behavior to include tracking my food, eating under my calorie goal, and moving my body for 20 minutes each day is what will positively change my health.

Right now I am actively losing weight but the idea of the group is that it supports every phase of your health journey, whether you are losing weight, maintaining weight, building, etc.

Come be accountable in a supportive and friendly forum.

There’s lots of things I love about this challenge, but for the last 3 months, my favourite thing is that if you’ve used up all your pass days, you’re still welcome, still cheered on by others.

I’ve taken full advantage of that, and I strongly believe it has helped me “minimize the damage”.

I’m looking forward to another great month of healthy habits. Come join us in October!

I would like to join your group challenge. However there are some events in the month of October (Thanksgiving, a cottage trip, Halloween parties (2), birthday to name a few) that would likely generate pass days solely on coloric input. I would not want to lie on reporting. Would it be advisable to sign up for October or reserve the engagement for your next challenge?

@HeyItsBrad you should join anyway even if you can't manage a "perfect" month .. if you go over on pass days its not the end of the world .. so you won't make the winners circle .. but its a start to making good habits

December is my worst month (4 birthdays new years eve and xmas) but I will still be there trying my best

Hope to see you there

Change your habits and change your life!

This challenge is focused on 3 of the most basic wellness habits: A bit of exercise, picking and sticking to a calorie budget, and tracking to see if you made your budget. You adjust as needed until you get it right. It's your exercise, your budget, your tracking. Grandma advice, right? Easy peasy.... sort of. Join in!

HeyItsBrad

Allrighty then. I'm in!

This challenge is the most amazing journey! No weigh ins, no judgement, I have been here over a year and accomplished so much, such a friendly , supportive group!

UAC is the perfect place to check in each day as you work on establishing or re enforcing your healthy habits.
We celebrate our victories big or small and support each other through our tough days. It is a safe place to share.

Closing in on my first UAC and looking forward to number two! This challenge has helped me to stay on track in more than just the 3 challenge areas; the discipline spills over to other areas in my life. So, a great big win! Bring on October.

ConfidentRaven

One of my favorite groups! Knowing that I’ll be reporting in has helped me stay on track or get back on track. It’s also helped keep me motivated with being active.

RangerRickL

I'm finishing up my second month as part of the UAC and it has been awesome! Although it's not a biggest-loser type challenge, it can result in that sort of loss if you have your mfp calorie limit set to create a loss. I lost 4 lb in Sep and a few in Aug all because the supportive community of UAC helped keep me accountable to logging and cheered each other on! For the first time ever I'm spending 28 days a month keeping under my calories limit and working on healthy long-term habits. If you're on the fence, join and try it out this month!

RangerRickL

Look up and read the good things that team members have to say about why you should join us for the October UAC!!

I totally agree with you. This group has helped me minimize the damage of undoing my healthy habits progress. In fact, it enforces habits needed to stay on track. Thanks Rich for setting it up. Come join us!
