You are invited to check us out...

The Ultimate Accountability Challenge (UAC) provides both weight losers and maintainers with incredible accountability partners AND an emphasis on life-changing healthy basic habits.

This is not the flash-in-the-pan 'biggest anything" short-term challenge. This is the real deal!! We are a non-commercial volunteer group with a proven track record of significant team member success.

We enthusiastically welcome our returning veterans and newcomers too!

The accountability is a daily report of:
1)More than 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
4)Daily or every third day reporting of your fulfillment of the above.

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!!

This group emphasizes long-term changes, but you can sign up for one month at a time.

January is a great time to join: click on the link below

    Great time of year for a New Year's resolution promoting a healthy lifestyle challenge. January will be my 14th month participating in the UAC Challenge. Welcome to all the new team members who are joining UAC for the first time in January, and to the "virtual friends" with whom I have become acquainted in the last several months. We are all cheerleaders on this journey for the very simple reason we are better together!

    Hi Everyone!

    If you truly want to lose weight/gain weight/maintain your weight, UAC will help you develop habits to achieve your long term goals.

    I’ve been in UAC 9 months & never plan to stop! I can’t say enough good things about this challenge or the community of folks that check in daily to support one another!

    Try it! You’ll see what I mean!

    I am really looking forward to January's UAC! This December I have been getting by with just the goal of not ruining all my progress. I have been successful but next month I plan to kick it up a notch and set some more goals. This group is so perfect for me and I recommend it for anyone!

    I did this in the past and it helped keep me accountable. January is a good month to get motivated. December has been tough. Ready for 2019 to begin!

    It's almost a new year. The best way to achieve your goals, weight loss or maintenance, is to have accountability to thoughtful healthy habits. Make the right choice!
    We invite you to get to know us at the Ultimate Accountability Challenge, see our January link in the post string above.

    Although I run a different challenge, UAC is still my favourite.

    By participating in UAC, I lost 25kg (50lbs) in 5 months, gone into full maintenance and kept the weight off for a further 12 months. 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.

    If you want your New Years resolution to lost weight and get in shape to last past Mind January, then UAC is the challenge for you.

    My initial goal to lose weight was from a New Years Day discovery in 2017. I was less than 1lb from the obese BMR for the first time in my life. I was working (slowly) on losing weight, but I found UAC in April that year having only shed 10lbs of a 50lbs target (in 4 months). Using UAC's techniques of tracking and activity, I lost a further 50lbs in 5 months much easier than the first 10lbs. UAC's principles work.

    What's more. I've kept all the weight off for over a year.

    See you in January.
