Allow UAC to challenge you! I've been participating for 2 years, now. Applying the daily objectives for this program are effective for weight loss and maintenance. It is a gift only you can give yourself. Make it happen with your commitment to the challenge today. Looking forward to your participation!3

I joined UAC in December. Exercising consistently is my greatest challenge. Because of this group, I have only missed exercise one day in 2 months. Knowing that I will be posting at the end of the day, makes me jump on the treadmill or roll out the yoga mat and get at least those 20 minutes done.
But what I like the most are the people. They are interesting, funny, supportive, helpful, and kind. Plus extremely welcoming to new folks - so come on and join!4 -
This is all that is required of this group
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.
It looks simple but I can't count the number of days the first requirement has made overcome my "lazy" days. Those days you don't feel like working out or think you do not have the time. Just because I don't want to answer No, I find myself going on the treadmill or talking a walk around my house for at least 20 minutes sometimes doing some free YouTube exercises for more than the 20 minutes and feeling a lot better

How do I sign up for this? Just joined MFP after a hefty amount of time out of training due to being diagnosed with COPD so I am looking for motivation and just all round accountability, this sounds awesome. Any advice on how to be involved in this much welcome. Thanks x2

Hi there!
Are you looking for a supportive group
Of people who are inspiring, wise, and kind?
Do you want to lose weight, maintain your weight, or gain weight?
UAC is the group for you! As others have noted, three seemingly simple rules that will help you meet your goal.
One of the things I cherish (among dozens) is it treats you like an adult.
YOU decide your calorie goal for the day.
YOU decide what exercise counts toward your minimum 20 minutes each day.
YOU decide what tracking will look like for you.
This passes the responsibility back to you.
February 2020 will be my 23rd month with UAC. I credit it with helping me lose my final 23 of my 75-78 lb loss AND more importantly has been invaluable in assisting me in learning to maintain my weight loss.
I exercise every day & I track all of my food.
I’ve been in maintenance for 9 months & UAC keeps my head in the game.
Our culture in America is all about dramatic weight loss. UAC teaches you it’s the daily little things that insure your success.
PLUS - we’re upbeat & FUN!
Join us!

Welcome to all the newbies! I joined in January and found great support and new exercise ideas.
My goal in February is to make exercise fun, like dancing in my living room or indoor rollerblading.3 -
This will be my third month. It really helps me strive for doing my best. I did not make it to the winners circle the past two months but I came close in January and I am going to try extra hard this month and stay as focused as I can be. Good luck to everyone!3

This will be my third month and I'm really looking forward to spending time with the great people here. I made the Winner's Circle in December but missed it by a day this month. I'm already planning on being there at the end of February.
Good luck, and even if you can't make it to the Winner's Circle in the end, keep plugging away at it and you'll see the results you want to see!2 -

Still on the fence?
I understand.
But please note:
You don’t post your weight
You don’t post your calories eaten
You don’t post your steps, exercise minutes, etc.
UNLESS you *want* to!
You just answer 3 simple yes/no questions:
1️⃣ Did I exercise 20 minutes?
2️⃣ Did I track everything I ate or drank?
3️⃣ Did I remain within the calorie goal I set for myself?
That’s it!!
