The Ultimate Accountability Challenge (UAC) provides both weight losers and maintainers with incredible accountability partners AND life-changing healthy habits.
This is not the flash-in-the-pan 'biggest anything" short-term challenge. This is the real deal!! We are a volunteer group with a proven track record of significant team member success.
You are the boss of which exercises you do; how high your calorie limit will be; and whether to ‘eat-back’ exercise calories burned.
The accountability is regularly posting your daily results for:
1) At least 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
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.
Those who continue to post throughout the month are honored as UAC Champions. Consistent thoughtful caloric intake; exercise; tracking and posting make Champions

As @MadisonMolly2017 says above, this challenge works! I have been part of it for a while. I fail a lot, come and go, but the community is extremely supportive, generous with praise and positive feedback and I was very proud to be in the Winners' Circle last month. I am a Champion this month. It's fun as well! Lots of Members' posts make me smile or laugh outright. People are very open, sharing their struggles, so you don't feel you are alone in battling pounds, ounces, kilos or desperately trying to maintain your ideal weight.4

And it works better than I thought
In April I had not a single day without some kind of exercise, I ate well and I said goodbye to 5.6kg (12.4lbs)
Accomplishing these alone without support is not that easy
Join us!

Hi Everybody,
UAC is magic! a safe haven! A place where “everyone knows your name” — just like on Cheers!
If you sincerely want to lose weight & maintain, this group is invaluable.
Friendly, positive, supportive, kind, and welcoming.
And Rick (@RangerRickL) is a modest guy, but *stage whispers” he’s an amazing leader who reads every post & inspires all of us!
Proof of UAC’s effectiveness: UAC helped me lose the last 25 lbs of my 75 lb weight lose and even more importantly helped me MAINTAIN for the past 2-2/3 years after decades of trying to lose & MAINTAIN!
Oh yes...and UAC creates MIRACLES!
Please join us! Give yourself some time to learn the ropes & be prepared to experience the miraculous!
We look forward to answering any questions (privately or in the chat) & welcoming you to the UAC family!!
❤️

You may read the above and think @MadisonMolly2017 is being hyperbolic. She's not though.
It really is that great in this group. Try it!

I've been joining in the UAC for four months now and it is a great group of supportive friends.
It sounds simple but it is effective. I've exercised every day, even when dealing with the most dreadful life events.
Logging/tracking your meals and keeping to your calorie limit is challenging and effective.
Do join us!6 -
I have been in this group for at least 1 year.
These 3 principles
1) At least 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
have help me to maintain.
Join and you will not regret...3 -
This is a great group! It helps me develop strong long-term habits and stick to my goals. I love the friendly supportive group!3

This really is a great group! It keeps me accountable so that I don't allow myself to make too many exceptions to staying on track with my food choices!2

Rejoining for May. I really need the accountability to make it to my goal weight for health reasons. In March I was able to lose about 10 of the Covid weight I gained. April was a wash for me as there were too many distractions in my life, and only lost about 2 pounds.
For May, I have three goals to help me keep motivated:
1. Be in the 220s (pre-Covid, I'm so close!!)
2. Have exercised at least 20 minutes each day
3. Drink more water daily (and less Diet Coke)1 -
Okay, you've convinced me! I'm in!2

It is May 1st, if you have not yet joined, then today is the day!
The UAC is a great group. I have been in it for 7 months, but @RangerRickL has been leading it for years. It is a great blend of old and new members, and the support for each other is strong. This thread is a testament for that dynamic. Our leader, Rick, is rather occupied for a couple days driving with his horse, dog, and wife from Arizona to Illinois. Consequently, group member @MadisonMolly2017 began this thread. That illustrates the dynamic of the UAC. Everyone comes together.
What are the benefits if the UAC? IMO the UAC focuses on healthy habit formation. I personally have enjoyed significant weight loss and reached dial in 3+ months, but the greatest impact the UAC has made on my life is the idea of including exercise daily, and I have seen the benefit. Right now, the UAC is helping me focus on maintenance, which is something I have always found challenging.
So if you are reading this and not yet a member, think about your goals and join us in the May UAC. See you in the flip side!1 -

OK, I'm in!2
