Wow! Can you believe that we are already at the middle-of-the-month topics.
New this month is a middle month shout out/check in. A chance to recognize the long list of members who are well on their way to the Winner’s Circle or UAC Champions, and also a chance to catch up with a few who we are missing and hope to see soon.
Soooo, here’s a shout out to this great list of members who are on track for the Circle or Champions. So exciting to see the new faces mixed in with our UAC veterans!

@twistedsassette I just noticed that I missed mentioning you. You joined us mid challenge and did not "join" the group member list. So glad you are here!
Another name missing from our "official" list is @harleywolf55
If you'd like your names on the group roster. Here is the home link https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/140905-ultimate-accountability-challenge-july-2021 and just click "join".
Welcome to you both!6 -
Still here! See post 13th July. Officially old now, I think ...6

@SModa61 - such a nice post to wake up to, were you up all night? You and @RangerRickL seem to be running around nonstop getting your houses ready to go. We were thinking of starting the selling process next fall. You two have me thinking that I should start organizing/eliminating, finding new homes for things, making repairs, etc etc etc today.6

July 13
Yes to all questions.
Pass days 3/3
July 14
A pass day. I was with a fever since yesterday, I think I cought a flu. I'm trying to fight it off with vitamin c and lots of fluids. I managed yesterday but took today as a rest day. No exercise but I have eaten an acceptable amount, as if I'm at maintenance, which is a good sign since I had no appetite yesterday and was way under my calories budget. And so, I'm officially out of the winner's circle, but will be in the champions list for sure.
@donna25trinity I'll share for sure if this helped in reducing my hunger. I was eating 1200 calories but after awhile from joing UAC and after reading our members' posts, I raised it to 1500. It is better for sure.
@Mrs_Hoffer I do eats protein but good point, maybe not enough especially with muscles workouts. I used to replace my carbs with protein whenever I could, I should go back to that.
Goodnight 💜💛7 -

@SModa61 and @readyornot1234 we're in the same boat. We're looking at selling our 2-story home and buying a one-level home ... probably later this year or early next year. I had also noticed what @RangerRickL and @SModa61 were going through and thought the same thing. So we've already begun downsizing/eliminating, repairs, etc!4 -

No more excuses – I’m home so the tracking has to happen again.
Exercise – yes – short bike ride (on my old bike) plus cardio workouts.
Tracking – yes
Calories – yes
I’m going for the Champions circle this month.
I volunteered as "cheerleader" for the 14th but I'm off to bed now. I shall read all your inspiring posts in the morning with my breakfast - have a good night.5 -
Wow! What a refreshingly long list to see, especially considering July can typically be a fairly challenging month for many (be it extreme temps, holidays, breaks in normal routine, or just plain tired from overdoing things in the spring)! Congrats to everyone, particularly the future champions who continue checking in to stay on track regardless of that arbitrary number of pass days!
July 14
✅ - Exercise 20+ Minutes (127)
✅ - Calories within budget (705 under, ate back 450 exercise calories)
✅ - Tracked every detail I consumed (yes)
0 Pass Days Used
Personal Challenges Met: 10/14 days (2nd, 4th, 5th, 11th)
✅ - Net Carbs 30g or less (24g)
✅ - Protein 180g or more (214g)
✅ - All Scheduled Workouts Completed (2)- Yoga - 16 minutes
- Run - 45 minutes at easy effort (Zone 2)
I also had a 66 minute walk today. I'm really happy to have a little bit of a walking streak returning. It's crazy how hard it is to fit something as simple as a walk in sometimes!4 -
Happy birthday @Chinkiri
70 is a good age to be and not yet officially old. (I'm already 70 and it's great)5 -
@thabit11 I hope that you wake up in the morning feeling much better! I think it’s more impressive when someone falls out of the Winners Circle but keeps coming back each dab to finish as a Champion!6

@SModa61 Thank you for the warm welcome! I did click the join button a few days ago before I started posting...is there something else I needed to do?

✅ Stayed under calorie goal
✅ Exercised more than 20 mins (50 mins walking in place)

Hello everyone! Thank you @SModa61 for checking on me!
I am just coming up for air today. After returning from our weekend road trip, I got some very bad news about one of my dearest friends. One of the healthiest people I know - great shape, ideal diet, full of energy - was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, though she was symptom-free. It just doesn't make any sense at all . . .

July 14:
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? No. This will hopefully be the last day in several that I haven't exercised. I have been in a funk, and I need to work myself out of it so I can be there for my friend and stay healthy myself.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes, I haven't been eating much.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes.
Pass days used: 6/3, including today. I have caught up on all my accountability posts!8 -
So sorry to hear about your friend. I'm sure she will appreciate your support.JennyRebecca1978 wrote: »Hello everyone! Thank you @SModa61 for checking on me!

Giving myself 3 yes. Calories very low, despite ice cream for lunch. No time for snacking. All tracked. Again, at over 5 miles today, all inside my house.
@Readyornot1234 - I definitely advice doing better than me. As I am going through these things, some of it has been very easy, I was just avoiding it all. @Mrs_Hoffer has the right idea!!! She will be all set. Do it like her!
@Oh_Jackie - never worry. I am just glad that all is well. I am the queen of late posts. :P I got especially bad when I was told I did not have to follow the "3 day rule". I was regimented up until that point, then I would go all long as 2 weeks one time just writing notes and then backfilled the two weeks all at once (though it took at least an hour - shame on me)
@Twistedsassette - I am betting you and I crossed paths. I likely made my starting chart right before you "joined", so you were not in my notes. So sorry for my error. So glad you are with us.
@JennyRebecca1978 - So very sorry about for friend. I'm glad she has you there for her.5 -
@JennyRebecca1978 So sorry to hear about your friend! Your support over the next weeks and months will help her get through!3

@JennyRebecca1978 Very sorry to hear about your friend.
Today was a really nice day. I went for a morning walk and then the family swam for a bit and hung out in the pool. Even with the Indian, I think I am good on calories today.✅✅✅5 -

I’m so sorry to hear this. Such heartbreaking news to deal with.2 -
I stayed away from sugar! So am at 6/14 days for sugar. Tracked. Exercised. Within calories. Drank water instead of having sugar, thanks @Mrs_Hoffer!6
