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, July 31st 😉
Your MUAC 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)

Track: yes
Calories: under
Exercise: elliptical 25 mins, walk to office 15 mins
I work in a chemical plant and we have to park outside the plant. We have the option of a shuttle to get to our office or we can walk. It’s about 1/2 mile walk for me so I try to do it most days but when it’s 80 deg F at 6:30am it’s sometimes hard to do in blue jeans and long sleeve shirt (required attire).1 -
@Krysless2 Thanks for getting us started this month and providing explanations to the new members. 👏🏻3

Thank you. Mondays and Wednesdays are my heavy days. I've got years of neglect to make up for, so fitness is my parttime job now! 😀3
