Aug 20: yes x 3 jogging/walking on treadmill for 65 min I am inspired by all the posts on restarting and getting back into the game. If it wasn't for my upcoming 5k in Oct I don't know if I would be able to keep motivated. It's not always about the weight on the scale but knowing you will be able to accomplish the goal you…

Aug 19: yes x 3 jogging/walking intervals for 60min on the treadmill training for my 5k. Aug 20: yes x 3 elliptical. arm challenge, 2,000m row and 20min on stationary bike @am_change I relate to all the stuggles you posted! I am trying to be more mindful of the thirst/hunger issue.

Aug 16, 17 & 18: yes x 3

Aug 14: yes x 3 if it wasn't for UAC this would be yet another lack of activity day, but I just didn't want that so I made sure I did some exercises at home while watching Card Sharks.

@RangerRickL hope you had a great birthday and enjoyed your margarita! Aug 12: calories yes, logged yes, exercise no Aug 13: yes x 3 arm challenge day 10 and 40 min on treadmill

Aug 9: pass day Aug 10: pass day. these are pass days 4 and 5. out of winners circle but still committed to UAC for the rest of the month. Aug 11: yes x 3 meal prep for the week and over an hour walking around Target

July 8: yes x 3

Aug 7: yes x 3 arm challenge day 4-rest day. leg day instead and 35min on treadmill. I find as I read everyone's posts each night that you are all so inspiring!!! If it wasn't for UAC I don't think I would be as determined to get my 3 yesses each day. Some days are harder than others, but as I read all these…

Aug 6: yes x 3: only 6 calories under but I'll take it! Arm challenge day 3, ab workout, 2,000M row and 50min elliptical. I'm trying to kick my refined sugar habit. Until you try to reduce the amount you intake on a daily basis you dont realize how much sugar one eats in a day.

Aug. 5: yes x 3 arm challenge day 2, jump rope and 55 min on treadmil. Signed up for a charity 5K in October. Needed something to keep me motivated!

Aug 4: pass day #3..ugh 😟👎 was able to get my activity in today and thought I would be ok on calories but when I logged everything in I was way over. I normally log as I go throughout the day but went to dinner for my moms bday and didnt log until I got home.

i take the 20 minutes to mean any activity that u are not sedentary. Whether it be all at once or split up during the day. for example: 10 minutes of walking in the morning and 10 minutes in the afternoon. I also include cleaning the house, gardening, or walking around Target (albeit at a brisk pace) in my 20 minutes on my…

not a great start to the month Aug 1: pass day Aug 2: pass day Aug 3: yes x 3

I was a member of UAC in the summer of 2017 and it made all the difference in my weight loss journey. Life got in the way after that and I stopped using MFP. I started again in July of this year and immediately looked for UAC. I strive to make it to the winners circle in August!

congrats to all in the winners circle...not an easy task for sure! I did this challenge two years ago for the summer months and made it to the circle once. I'm hoping to make it there again in Aug. July 31. over in calories by 125...darn!

July 28: yes x 3 July 29 and 30: pass days. my work schedule has been unexpectedly crazy toward the end of the month. no winners circle for me.

July 27: yes x 3

July 26: another pass another 12hr day. didnt track, no idea how many calories...ugh! 🤨

July 24 & 25: pass days 4 & 5 two unexpected 12hr work days just left me so exhausted I couldn't find the energy to get even 20 minutes of activity which I would consider enough for this challenge. Was so close to the WC. Will try again in Aug. for sure and will keep logging in for the rest if July.

July 23: yes x 3

July 22: yes x 3 walked around Target for over an hour finishing up my grocery shopping

@lamlam2013 glad everyone was dafe and no injuries

July 21: yes x 3 cleaning the house today and meal prep for lunches this week. I'm usually only under calories by a very slim margin but today had a hundred to spare.

@fitphoenix how can you not love Jessica Fletcher!

July 20: yes x 3 walked briskly around Walmart for over an hour today doing some shopping. rest day from official exercise. raining and storming here most of the day which limited outdoor activity so no fun outdoors for me today. 😕

July 19: pass #3

oops posted on wrong day July 19: pass #3

@BonnieHosk85 have fun line dancing! July 18: yes x 3 nothing special for exercise today just 45 min on the treadmil

@Ketch_22 I love Friendly"s. I no longer live in an area that has it, but I used to frequent the restaurant quite often

July 17: yes x 3 we had a catered lunch of sandwiches and salad at work today. I had to estimate calories but used the options on Fitness Pal to average what it could be. I usually overestimate but I am still under even using the higher calorie count. Elliptical for 60 minutes at the gym while watching Press Your Luck
