If you are looking for a challenge on MFP, this is both the hardest and the BEST. It works both for losing weight and maintaining.
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/134997-ultimate-accountability-challenge-january-2020
Most who start a New Years Resolution to get fit or lose weight lose resolve in the first 2 weeks because they change too much or go too hard to maintain.
UAC takes a different approach. Small manageable daily tasks, but keep it up for at least 28 days in a 31 day month.- No weigh-ins.
- No mandated activity (you get to choose).
- No externally set calorie limits (you get to choose).
The rules are simple:- Track what you eat/drink
- Stay within you nominated calorie budget
- Get at least 20 mins activity per day
Don't let the simplicity fool you. Most lake a couple of months to be able to successfully complete a month of this challenge as it requires consistent effort.
The group is super supportive and very knowledgeable.
Some are losing weight. Some are in maintenance. Some are training for personal goals. All welcome to try.2 -
Dear MFP-er!
Whether you are just beginning, in the middle, about to reach your goal weight, or navigating maintenance, I cannot recommend the UAC group enough!
I joined UAC April 2018, (21 months ago), weighing 176.6, already having lost 57.1 pounds from 228.3 since Jan 2017 on my own & using another app.)
My goal was 169, BMI 25 for 5’9”
Then I realized I was shorter, so shifted to 166.
Then realized I needed to lose more.
Eventually got down as low as 150.2 before realizing 153-155 was a good maintenance range for me.
Then I tackled maintenance...
ALL through this journey, UAC has been invaluable!
Every day I remember the 3 UAC tenets: exercise > 20 mins, calories under the goal I set, track all.
It works.
My 2018 avg weight was 168
My 2019 avg weight is 155.
Longest time maintaining in my Life❣️❣️❣️
Invaluable.
UAC is my life preserver. UAC is a my friendly home “where everyone knows your name”, UAC works.
UAC reminds me it is the daily habits that yield success. UAC is filled with people who are doing this ... proof that I can...and you can, too!

One tip: do not give yourself just a week or a month in UAC. It might take a couple of months to get the hang of it, but you WILL - and we are all here to help!4 -
The battle of the new year challenges is heating up.
In my books, UAC is the best one if you are looking for long term results.

December was my very first month joining UAC. Going into December, I thought best case was that I would maintain my weight. Instead, I am down my normal 2 pounds and super close to my maintenance range! I credit the UAC group for keeping me on track.
It's a great group! Come join us!3 -
The UAC has aided in keeping me on track a number of times. Join us in the new year https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/134997-ultimate-accountability-challenge-january-20201

Very helpful for me this past year. I've gone from obese to normal in the past year and plan to continue with this challenge to help myself in maintenance.4
