The Ultimate Accountability Challenge - Please Join Us for March

itladyee

The March 2025 Edition of the Ultimate Accountability Challenge (UAC) is now open and ready to welcome you! The UAC is a positive and supportive community with old and new members from all over the world. We focus on three simple daily actions that can create big life changes.

The “challenge” portion is simple. Whether you are in weight loss mode or, like many of our members, committed to maintenance, we invite you to join us in building healthy habits through a daily check-in:

For every day, this check-in answers three simple questions:
1. Did you track your food, snacks, and caloric drinks?
2. Did you stick to the daily calorie goal you set for yourself?
3. Did you incorporate at least 20 minutes of intentional physical activity? Please do not let this scare you from joining… everyone starts with something they are comfortable and capable of accomplishing.

With up to three "pass days" (days when you didn’t meet your goals), you’re a winner for the month. Stick around until the end of the month, you’re still a champion! The worst-case scenario, you’re a learner as we offer up topics each day for discussion.

Why the UAC works:
1. It’s a stable and supportive community (The UAC has been around for years).
2. It’s a non-judgmental and non-competitive space that welcomes and supports you at any level.
3. We focus on habits rather than reporting pounds. Our discussions have been life-changing for many members.
4. Your time commitment to the UAC is up to you. You can update your check-ins as little as every three days and still be a winner, but many of us find reading and participating in our daily discussions on various topics helpful.
5. The UAC is an incredible tool for building accountability, whether you are a winner or a champion for the month.

Come on over, check us out, and please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have. We're here to help, and excited to meet you.

To anyone who's thinking about joining: I've been with the UAC since July of 2023, and this group has absolutely changed my life. I've lost about 70 lbs so far.

With the amazing information and support I get in the UAC, I made it through some really rough and stressful times without losing my way. As a member of this group, I have learned how to plan my meals, how to eat in order to keep my body and mind healthy, and even how to enjoy exercise (yes, for real). I used to think that I was "just not the kind of person who enjoys exercise," and that I was always going to be obese. Now I know that I can be whoever I want, as long as I'm willing to learn what I don't know, and give myself time to practice my new skills. My health, well-being, and self-confidence have improved drastically. I'm having a blast!

I look forward to spending another month with my awesome UAC friends. Don't be shy, come check us out!

This Daily Check In with Accountability is a game changer for me

If you are looking for support and accountability this is the group for you.
1. The three daily aims are key to building solid habits that will aid you in your weight loss journey.
2. The members are knowledgable, supportive and non-judgemental.
3. The group was instrumental in helping me reach maintenance, and stay there (currently in my sixth year of maintenance)

Come along and join us. We would love to share your journey with you.

this is an excellent group for those who need long term results. A great non judgemental place and you can share as much or as little as you have time or energy for.

Hi! My name’s Alicia and I’m excited to join a community that brings great energy and support to something that has often been isolating and hopeless. I’ll look forward to cheering everyone on 😊

This is seriously a great group! It's flexible, so on busy days you can check in with the bare minimum, and when you need extra motivation, there is so much more to read. I feel super motivated by the support and care given to all members. I've been a part of it since June of last year, and now I'm within one pound of my target weight! I highly recommend joining.

UAC is very much why I have succeeded in changing my lifestyle.

By participating in UAC, I have lost 2-3 lbs a month, am now in maintenance and kept the weight off for a further 3 months (even over Christmas and holidays).

I intend to be part of UAC for a long time.

UAC does not have weigh ins.

UAC does not not mandate exercise you cannot or do not want to do.

UAC is not competing against others.

What UAC is:
UAC is a fantastic community with daily discussion.

UAC builds healthy maintainable habits to manage your weight and your health.

Successful, long term, weight loss / weight management REQUIRES lifestyle adaption. Not diets. That is the core of UAC.

If you are looking for the BEST challenge on MFP. *** THIS IS IT ***

If you are SERIOUS about losing weight and intend to KEEP IT OFF, **FOREVER**. Then UAC is the challenge for you.
