    ABOUT THE CHALLENGES & REQUIRED WEIGHT POSTINGS
    We are going to be running a daily post challenge or MUAC(Mini Ultimate Accountability Challenge) Based on another MFP Challenge called the UAC

    Participation in this challenge is optional but highly encouraged for the following reasons:
    - Helps to keep your goals in focus daily
    - Motivating to see others working on the same things and having the same struggles too. It's defintely a reminder that we're not alone and we are a team
    - Many of us who participate and have successfully lost weight, m would all agree that the daily posting MUAC really is the key!

    The way it works: 
    #1. Track EVERYTHING you eat that has calories.
    #2. Stay inside your allocated daily budget. (you set your own budget)
    #3. Try to do at least 20 minutes of activity a day (anything: walk, run, cycle, swim, gardening, housework, yoga, gym, etc.. As long as it gets you active and off the couch)
    #4. Check in daily (tracking yes/no, calories yes/no, exercise yes/no).

    ****End of the week. those who have managed to keep to plan for 6 out of 7 days are recognized in the thread as being part of the weekly "Winners Circle".    Our weeks always start on Sunday so we’ll start tracking on Sunday, July 2nd😉

    Your MUAC Posts should look like this:
    Daily Post (Sunday)
    Track: Yes/no
    Calories: Yes/no (were you under)
    Exercise: Yes/no (what type and how long)
    Goals/Day/Comments: (Tell us a brief description about how your day went or your goals for the day)

    Your Weekly Weigh-In Posts should look like this:
    Krysless2
    Week 1
    PW =(previous weight)
    CW=(current weight)


    Please let me know what you would like us to list as your Start weight for June..

    Let’s go!!

    By the way, I have tracked my food for four days now 😇

    We are on the same path with this I think. I missed tracking yesterday but then I remembered to do it at like 1am just before falling asleep. Progress is progress, am I right??

    If you’re on Stridekick, please join in 🤗

    Speaking of Stridekick are y'all getting weird friend requests? 🤷‍♀️🤔

    ETA: and if you are NOT on it, get on it already!! 😂😂

    I get multiple weird friend requests a day! Anytime I’ve accepted one, he immediately starts a chat. Now I decline everyone I don’t know.

    I made a cover photo telling men to stop trying to be my friend if they have zero steps. It seems to have helped! 😆

    Brilliant! They almost all have zero steps!! 🤓

    Gonna be an ugly week. My BIL & SIL are visiting, arrived Friday and leaving Wednesday. The first time we've been together in 5 years and the first time they've been to our home in MD. Lots of eating, drinking and catching up . But it's so good to see them. 💕

    ~ Obviously stuck in a rut with the fitness aspect. But I still lost this month so I’m proud of that. This week I’m working on balance between my time here, getting in more steps and just regular life.
    ~ Also my biggest goal I want to achieve is for tomorrow. And it’s a doozy!
    I’m NOT going to drink any alcohol! I’m hosting a 4th of July pool party and even if I don’t drink allot I still finish the night throwing them back with the stragglers. (Lord help me do this please!!)

    Starting Weight: 383.6

    Daily Post (Sunday)
    Track: Yes
    Calories: Yes
    Exercise: 120 minutes construction cleaning
    Goals/Day/Comments: I had my upstairs bathroom tub remodeled into a walk in shower. Dearie doctor the dust! It went EVERYWHERE! A 1/4 inch dust upstairs AND downstairs! 🤬 I started having breathing troubles and had to move into my brother’s house for a few weeks. My brother loaned me three air purifiers from his classroom (wise choice of Covid money - unlike my school where we didn’t see a dime put back into our classrooms 🙄).
    I am just now crawling out of the white dust and at the same time starting the new part time job (which as you all know, there really is no such thing as a part time job - only part time pay 😆).
    I’m sorry I have been MIA. It has been really tough over here! But I have managed to log in and record my food, even the bad days of stress eating when my dining room ceiling caved in below the upstairs bathroom. Or when they found black mold under the tub. Or when they discovered the ceiling above the new shower was about to collapse. Or when my friend backed into my driveway at 30mph and completely destroyed the garage door, which of course my luck is an oddly shaped door from the 1930s so had to be made and will not be installed for two more weeks. 🤦🏻‍♀️

    I’ll stop there. But there is much more! 😆
