ABOUT THE CHALLENGES & REQUIRED WEIGHT POSTINGSWe are going to be running a daily post challenge or MUAC(Mini Ultimate Accountability Challenge) Based on another MFP Challenge called the UAC
Participation in this challenge is optional but highly encouraged for the following reasons:
- Helps to keep your goals in focus daily
- Motivating to see others working on the same things and having the same struggles too. It's defintely a reminder that we're not alone and we are a team
- Many of us who participate and have successfully lost weight, m would all agree that the daily posting MUAC really is the key!
The way it works:
#1. Track EVERYTHING you eat that has calories.
#2. Stay inside your allocated daily budget. (you set your own budget)
#3. Try to do at least 20 minutes of activity a day (anything: walk, run, cycle, swim, gardening, housework, yoga, gym, etc.. As long as it gets you active and off the couch)
#4. Check in daily (tracking yes/no, calories yes/no, exercise yes/no).
****End of the week. those who have managed to keep to plan for 6 out of 7 days are recognized in the thread as being part of the weekly "Winners Circle".Our weeks always start on Sunday so we started tracking yesterday. Sunday, May1st 😉
Your posts should look like this:
Daily Post (Sunday)
Track: Yes/no
Calories: Yes/no (were you under)
Exercise: Yes/no (what type and how long)
Goals/Day/Comments: (Tell us a brief description about how your day went or your goals for the day)
As always, if you have any suggestions for the team or fun ideas to spice things up a bit, please feel free to share them, we look for new ways to help engagement and keep people motivated!!
Hi Everyone!! I wanted to tell you about a change to the way MUAC is calculated. Starting now you will receive credit for the day for posting your Tracking / Calories / Exercise, whether or not you succeeded in meeting your daily goals. The powers that be (basically myself and @Krysless2 ) wanted a way to recognize teammates like @susanshaughnessy80 who posts every day, whether she's met her goals or not. It's the posting itself that enables the MUAC objectives (below).
- Helps to keep your goals in focus daily

So come on everyone! Don't be shy, let us hear from you!!

My appetite is back from covid but I am still dealing with lung issues and currently on asthma treatments. I haven't started to exercise yet. A few more days of steroids. I'm hoping next week is better for me. This group is helping me from overeating. Thank you very much.

Works kicking my *kitten*!!
I miss the days when my greatest worry was logging all our teammates weights on time!
How’s everyone else doing!?1 -

Okay y'all... I'm on a spiral it seems. I need to get some control. I seriously can't even remember to log weight every day. I truly think I weigh and then go to log and have missed a day or two. My days/nights are running together and every single day seems to derail. Falling into a habit of snacking at night which is really not good. Just NEED to get a mind adjust.3
