  1. Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes?
  2. Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day?
  3. Did I keep track of all the calories I ate or drank?
  4. Pass days (3+ is fine if you reach the max)

    ✅✅✅ 3️⃣ pass days left

    Started increased exercise intensity a couple of days ago. My Fitbit informed me that I was overdoing it 😜 just because I did a HIIT workout. Silly Fitbit.

    Pass days 1/3

    I’m right there with you @lesdarts180 - wonderful party last night and hosted today. Lots of friends made amazing dishes. Didn’t overdo it like I used to (half a bagel, for example), but definitely sampled such a variety that I couldn’t track.

    @Dinks2422 - good for you, getting such a good start! Everyone here treats the scale as they need to. I weigh and log it almost every day, but some people don’t. If you weigh yourself daily, you will find the number jumps all over the place. I find that useful and more motivating because I have a more accurate picture of what my range is. Once I get to my maintenance weight, I won’t do it as much.

    @TEXASTITCHER I also love using my hands (knitting) to prevent snacking. It’s such a great way to avoid temptation! What type of stitching do you do?

    @Kathrynclimbs that looks so beautiful and like a great way to mark the new year.

    Happy new year, everyone! Here’s to a joyous 2025!

    Hi UCC'ers, well I got a jump start and started yesterday. 😱 Mainly because I was scared I wouldn't know how to do it. Took the chance to go for a long walk with DS. Went for shorter walk today (to help with blisters!) So achieved activities and worked out my daily calorie limit and stuck to calories 🙃 😃 feeling confident so far.
    I weighed in both days, is that the correct thing to do?
    Hope everyone is OK HAPPY NEW YEAR X
    @Dinks2422
    the only thing you need to do here is each report report whether you were successful in meeting the three UAC goals:

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes?
    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? You set your budget for the daily
    Did I keep track of all the calories I ate or drank?

    If the answer is yes for all 3 and it looks like it is, then you are good for the day. If the answer is no for any one of the items then you have a pass day.

    The scale is at your discretion.

    Kudos on getting those walks in!!

    Happy New Year everyone!

    @Dinks2422 Yes you did your check-in perfectly :) The UAC doesn't ask for weigh-ins, you can do those or not, whatever works best for you. I weigh myself every day because I'm still learning what works for me and what doesn't. I'm pretty sure some UAC'ers never weigh themselves anymore since they've been at goal weight for a long time. And then there's probably everything in between.

    @nansbones7708 Your workout looks fun! Was this your first time trying it?

    @Kathrynclimbs I had to google Loony Dook :D (Link for everyone else who's never heard of it.) When I grow up I wanna be like you! B)

    @lesdarts180 Psst... I started December with 3 pass days in a row :# so I think you're still ok for now, haha.

    @SafariGalNYC ZERO pressure (I mean it!), but if you'd like to do an opener sometime about your destressing discoveries this month, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be all 👀

    @DarkNightBrightDays Your New Year's tradition sounds so pleasant! I think I might have started my own New Year's tradition this year, I decided to hop in the hot tub last night and it was so nice that I did it again today 🧖🏻‍♀️

    No exceptions. No excuses. 🥑
