Please feel free to share as much information as you feel comfortable sharing about yourself with the rest of the group. I look forward to getting to know all of you a little better.

GOOD LUCK!

    Off to Alaska at the end of the month. So that may take me out of the winner's circle for both July and August, but well worth it!
    Outstanding...I would love to go back to Alaska. The scenery was just spectacularly majestic. Hope you can share some pics along your journey!

    Hello! My name is Lily from the US and this is my first month doing this challenge. I'm turning 19 this month and I would like to give this year a good start! My weight loss goal is to get to less than 140 lbs from 190-ish lbs so I can be within regulation to join the USAF eventually! 😊 I've never really participated in forums on mfp but I have lost over 130 lbs over 3 years counting calories on here with my highest weight being around 320 lbs. Good luck everyone! 🎉

    Welcome to the UAC and congrats on an awesome weight loss!! Hooe we can cheer you on to the finish line and in to maintenance!

    Hi I’m Rita a newbie from the U.K. I’m 67 years young and have been trying to lose 14 pounds for some time now. I have been a member of a couple of other challenges and think I have become complacent and so this may be the change I need. Holiday to Turkey is booked for September so there’s my goal 🤞

    @goldthistime Thank you for the warm welcome and it's encouraging to hear this challenge is working so well for you.
    @TerriRichardson112 8 times to Winner's Circle? That's amazing!

    Hi Alicia. 'I just wrote the perfect intro and then somehow deleted it' We've all done that! Lol!
    Welcome to UAC. Well done on your recovery and progress so far. And best wishes for a full recovery.

    I'm just getting back into MFP after a long absence; I've now logged my food for 5 days in a row! I've been very successful with MFP before and I'm ready to do it again.

    Hi. I am Michelle, age 42, and this will be my first month with UAC. My ultimate goal is health and mobility. I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder several years back and was only able to walk 10 minutes at a time on the treadmill before my legs would start to go numb. My journey began then. I was lucky to get 3500 steps a day. I joined a great group here on mfp and they challenge me each day to keep moving. Now, I am averaging over 6300 steps. I would love to get to 10000 a day or more. As well, I recently had an wellness exam done. There were a few markers that are elevated. My goal is to get those numbers within acceptable limits by diet and exercise.

    I look forward to being apart of this group!

    Hello all! I am new to this challenge, but not new to MFP. My goal is weight loss and maintain once I lose the weight. I gained 30lbs, and that is a very uncomfortable amount of weight gain for my height 5’6 and my age 44. I am currently 188lbs, and my ideal weight is 145. I haven’t had the discipline to do what I needed to lose weight, but here I am and ready to get going! I look forward to this challenge.

    Hello everyone! Molly from the SF Bay Area. This will be my 16th month with UAC. It took me about 4 months to sign up originally, it seemed too strict for someone like me. I'm so glad i joined! Even though i don't make the winners circle the majority of the time, i have seen huge improvement in my body composition, discipline and attitude when i approach food. I am still on my weight loss journey, have 15-20 lbs left until my original goal.
