Personal Monthly Goals for UAC
Personal goals for July 2021:

1. Plan to be in winners circle (track everything as expected in this UAC)
2. Not more than 3 pass days
3. Stay honest (even if it puts me out of the circle for the month)
4. Maintain the habits of "kitchen close"
5. Create a habit of not eating more than 1 serving of nuts. "Don't go nuts"
5. Forgive my mistakes (forgive myself) and don't leave the UAC for this month even if I failed
6. Encourage others where possible.

Welcome new and old members.

The UAC challenge has only 3 rules.

1. Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes?
2. Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day?
3. Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank?

At first glance, they look very simple. From my experience these rules are applicable to anyone at any stage of this health journey. Whether you are just beginning, advanced or maintaining. (BTW, I've being in maintenance for the past few years).

I have come to realized that these are the only things that nobody in this life will do for me. Nobody cannot eat for you, exercise for you or track what you eat, lick or bite in this world. This is all about me, my health, and my usefulness to those around me! If I don't take care of my health then I cannot take care of anybody.

Does it mean that I will not fail? No, it is not about being perfect! But it about forming a habit. A habit that will bless me and move me forward in life, it will also bless those around me.

Therefore, as you join us in this month's UAC, you do not have to be perfect. We are not This is a very supportive group. We will support you as you learn these habits. Come by everyday, read encouraging/funny/realistic posts, and post something.

If you have at most 3 pass days (pass day is a day where you could not say "Yes" to all 3 rules). Then you are in Winner's circle. If you have more than 3 pass day but you were here everyday, you are in the Champion's circle.

@victorious55 well said!!! Xoc

Did I exercise 20 minutes or more? Yep, a little over the 20.
Did I track everything? Yes, yes I did.
Did I stay within calories? Well, I did until I was looking at my diary, trying to figure out why it looked like something was missing. That's because it was. My lunch was missing. Well, that explains why I was so far under my goal. Hahahaha! When I added it (best guess from the database), I went over. So....

Pass Days: 2/3 (that doesn't bode well for the rest of the month, does it? But I'm going to keep on keeping on.)

Looking forward to the three-day weekend. Plan to ride all three mornings. Tomorrow with my daughter and sister. Sunday by myself. Monday? Could be solo, could be with my daughter. But, unless the promised rain shows up on my side of town, in amount to actually mean something, it will happen.

We are driving now to see our hopefully new 🏠 If someone has time please wish us luck 🙏☺️ I am so nervous 💓
