    Yes to all 3, and I think I have posted every day in spite of the excessive pass days. Way more than 3.

    Awesome job sticking with it @_JeffreyD_ :smile: the 3 rules for the UAC are simple, but they're definitely not easy!!

    @Mrs_Hoffer I echo your post. I'm out of the Winner's Circle, but I am proud to still be here and posting.

    Yes x 3 today. Still struggling with getting off the sweets from my ridiculous week end binge (once I got derailed on the weekend, I really let loose). But because I'm on vacation this week and rested on Monday from the weekend, I did a ton of biking and swimming so my calories stayed under due to that. For my sweet cravings, I did limit it to 7 chocolate covered pretzels and candied ginger. Today I'll eat watermelon if a sweet craving hits me. Sugar is so highly addictive but I'm well versed at weening myself off of it.

    I have used 3 pass days for June so I am still on track for the Winner's Circle - this will be my first Winner's Circle since I started on MFP May 17, 2020. Apparently I'm a tough nut to crack but at least I finally got here!

    @Jana_2020
    BRAVO!
    I have found the months I was not in the Winner’s Circle were often the ones I learned what I needed to do to get there - and helped me develop new habits!!

    Also, for me at least, I’ve had months in the Winner’s Circle where I slightly lost or maintained & months when I wasn’t when I had a large loss.

    One is about consistency.
    The other is about our accuracy & the goals we set for ourselves.

    And as @RangerRickL always says: honest, accurate tracking is the key skill. This gives us our reality. Then we can tweak our daily calorie goal and/or exercise goal to meet our needs.
